What is your hero’s main character flaw?
Due to his father’s abuse and his wife’s betrayal, Sandy suffers from low self-worth. This sometimes causes him to second guess himself.
What is your heroine’s main character flaw?
Rochelle has a short temper. She jumps to conclusions easily and often thinks the worst before she has all the information.
What can readers learn from your villain?
The love of money and power are the routes of many evils.
What makes your hero heroic?
There is nothing Sandy won’t do for those he loves. He stands his ground, even in the face of great danger.
What makes your heroine heroic?
Though emotionally fragile, Rochelle finds an inner strength to face her greatest fear. She willingly sacrifices her freedom, and possibly her life, to protect Sandy’s child.
My book will appeal to readers who like Lisa Wingate
My book will appeal to Lisa Wingate’s readers because as in Wingate’s The Prayer Box, my heroine was influenced by a godly older woman (Bessie) whom she does not fully understand until she is gone. Similarities also include strong but flawed, relatable characters with real and raw emotions.
Tell Us Anything Else You Feel is Relevant.
This story seeks to bring awareness of the horrible crime of human trafficking and how young men and women are lured into slavery by predators with the promise of money and adventure. It also seeks to encourage prodigals everywhere that there is hope and grace found in God if you only ask!
If my story had a musical theme song it would be “Beautiful, Beautiful” by Francesca Battistelli

A decade ago, Rochelle Delany made a decision that changed her life forever.
Wanting more than just football games and potluck suppers, she boarded a bus for California and didn't look back. But instead of a glamorous life, she became trapped in a nightmare of labor trafficking. Now, she's made a daring escape and returns home to Ohio.

Sandy Fairbrother has a problem with trust.
Twice betrayed, he now puts his faith only in God. He' s a single dad doing his best to grow his construction business and raise his young son. But haunted by an impulsive kiss Rochelle gave him fifteen years ago, her unexpected return has him rethinking things. He' s been given a second chance to win her heart. And this time, he plans to succeed.

Rochelle barely remembers Sandy, but she's drawn to his goodness. But just when she thinks she's found peace, her past catches up with her, and she finds herself in danger of losing the only safe haven she' s ever known.
