A powerful story of redemption and romance following one man who rises to overcome the shame of his past.

Christian "Chris" Sheppard had no idea that when the cell door closed behind him, a door to a new life was opening. Newly released from jail, he bids farewell to his hometown and moves in with his uncle who serves as a pastor. Residency in a parsonage is a stark contrast to that of his former life, but he is happy to finally be part of a family. Never one to attend church in the past, Chris suddenly finds himself on a church pew every Sunday and it isn't so bad. And it's especially agreeable after he meets Annabelle.

Somewhat adopted by his uncle's family as well, Annabelle is the opposite of Chris, but that doesn't stop them from forming a friendship. And when the opportunity presents itself, she proves to him that unconditional love does exist. As Chris becomes a faithful Christian, their courtship blossoms, but the path ahead won't be an easy one, as the consequences of Chris's former life begin to catch up with him. Compelled by the necessity of long-time friends, he faces one of his greatest fears. Can he right the wrongs of his past and break free from the chains of his own shame?

Exploring themes of hope and redemption, author Abigail Gibbs confronts life's challenges from the perspective of a rebel turned right, looking to move forward in life and love. A powerful story with a moral lesson, the book will appeal to fans of historical romance.
