love story. This story is one of great impact on her and the world around her;
Her story is culminated in the forgiveness and redemption of a loving Savior. A day that forever changed her destiny. .
. Truly riveting and thought-provoking.
Fast-paced and full of all the ingredients for a fantastic
novel, the author presents a biblically accurate account, of the story of the
woman caught in adultery. The culture of the ancient times and the author’s
ability to paint a clear picture of the scenery and emotions involved
throughout the pages will take readers back to a time, to a place when women
were of less importance and a good marriage meant everything for a woman’s
survival. Arranged marriages were quite the norm as well as more than one wife.
Adina’s journey unfolds as love, betrayal, hopelessness and
despair lead her to fall into adultery with the man she truly loved. As her
arranged marriage has become less than tolerable, Adina wants nothing more to
be in the arms of the one she loves. Events, twists and turns lead to her
eventual arrest and condemnation to be stoned to death. Meeting Jesus changed
her fate.
This is an amazing account that reveals the redeeming love
and compassion of Jesus.

riveting, suspenseful and romantic read.
Highly recommended!
