Much better than the first edition...

For those of you who have read the first edition of "Like A River Glorious" I would like to let you know of this book.... Lawana rewrote her first edition and this version is much better than the one before. So if you didn't enjoy the first edition you might want to try this new edition. I connected much better with the characters especially with Corrine Hammond. Rachel Jones is a lovely young maid caught in a desperation situation. She is an unwilling partner in an evil intrigue of extortion and blackmail with her employers Gerald Moore and Corrine Hammond. Though she would like very much to leave this household, the fear of being arrested along with her employers held her captive. Then Rachel meets the latest victim Lord Adam Burke who has secluded himself after his war injuries and his fiancee's rejection. Will Rachel escape the vile plot and from Gerald Moore's unsavoury lust? Or will she sacrifice her life in order to save Adam? I am very pleased that Lawana has re-written the book and I'm so looking forward to her new contemporary murder-mystery "A Table by the Window" which will be released next April. I can hardly wait! Please keep up the good work Lawana!

Great book!

A great book. One of Lawana Blackwell's best. It's a very interesting and good love story. I highly recommend it.

It's a great book that talks about God's forgiveness!!!!!!!!

Rachel is a wonderful charactor. She doesn't like what she's doing and she was told that if she doesn't do what Gerald or Corrine say they would put her in jail. Gerald and Corrine were con artists who prey among the rich people and by Corrine's lies they extort money from rich people. Then they met Adam with scars from his days as a British soldier. Rachel and Adam fall in love and there is a great ending. You have to read this one

Solid pick with good spiritual qualities, engrossing

Very good character development. I prefer her now over Lori Wick. Keeps me engrossed with an exciting plot and unpredictable endings. Not like Francine Rivers, but with her different style, she ranks at the top of her class.
