Redemption S D Johnson

A page-turner of a novel that readers can't put down but don't want to end. Redemption, collecting five star reviews from across the world, tells the story of the victim, not the sadistic crime. Beth Anderson, left for dead after an horrific rape, had given up, content to stay locked away from the world. Her attempt at suicide had been thwarted by chance. The hospital chaplain wants her to regain her life and helps her return to the safety of her childhood village. Unexpectedly having to take care of two privileged but unloved children starts her recovery. When their father, an eminent politician crashes and burns, she has to shield them from the media frenzy that erupts. She finds herself in a new and alien world where she fears her attacker hides behind every corner. Her demons surface after an unexpected marriage proposal and her fears of intimacy threaten to overwhelm her. She is saved by the unwaivering love of the troubled priest, but as she learns to return his love, his life hangs by a thread and forces her to come to terms with what is really important.
