“Redeeming Love is a literary masterpiece, reminding us that God’s love is unconditional. I read it twenty years ago, and even now the story reverberates in my mind. I knew then this book would be a classic . . . and it is.”—#1 New York Times bestselling author Debbie Macomber

“Writers like Rivers are why people buy Christian fiction.”—Publishers Weekly

“A splendid piece of work exploring both physical love and a love of God. There is not one false note in this wonderful novel. . . . Very highly recommended.”—Library Journal

“I first read Redeeming Love at a time when I wasn’t sure whether God was calling me to write Christian fiction. Francine’s story changed my life and touched my heart. At the end of the book, I dropped to my knees and promised God I would always write for him. Redeeming Love has a special way of infusing the great and indescribable love of God straight into the heart of the reader. It’s a must read for anyone longing for the love of our Father.”—Karen Kingsbury, New York Times bestselling author of Unlocked, the Bailey Flanigan series, and Coming Home

“Simply put, Redeeming Love is the most powerful work of fiction you will ever read. Steeped in Scripture and filled with grace, it is a masterpiece that moves beyond allegory to touch the reader at the deepest level where faith is born. Michael Hosea is the consummate hero; Angel, in one way or another, is every woman who has ever lived without love. You cannot read this book and not be changed.”—New York Times bestselling author Liz Curtis Higgs

“My heart and soul were profoundly moved when I read this story twenty years ago, and time has not diminished the effect of this book. Redeeming Love deserves to be the classic it is. Stories that demonstrate the depth and perseverance of God’s love only grow more precious with time.”—New York Times bestselling author Angela Hunt
