Texas Angel: A Powerful Story of Uncommon Courage

Summary: Teaxas Angel?
Review: No offense, but are all the reviewers of this book blind? This was a BORING book. I could barely get through the first half of the book, it picked up a little bit after that, but not much. One of the main characters, Elise, seemed stupid to me. Trying to escape with a screaming child? Excuse me, but it seems like common sense to shut the child up and then run. I was surprised that the author, Judith Pella, was a bestselling athor. Because this is definitly not one of my favorites. Then I thought maybe this was one of her not so great books, I mean all authors have those. But after reading all of these reviews, I'm not quite sure. The author ended the book too quickly. It was as if she was just trying to tie all the loose ends up, instead of actully thinking it through. Overall, I would NOT recommend thiS book. Don't waste your time on it.

Summary: A Great Book!
Review: This book combines two worlds that you wouldn't ever expect to come together.

Benjamin Sinclair is a fiery preacher with high opinions of everything. He pulls his small quaint family from the safety of Boston to the wilderness of Texas. His kind wife Elizabeth never wanted to go to Texas but Benjamin dragged her.

Elise Toussaint Hearne thought her secret would never be revealed. Her mother was one quarter African. You couldn't tell that her daughter, Hannah, had any African in her because her complexion is the same as her father's. Elise and Hannah are now property of Maurice Thomson. Elise's husband and his family disown them. And she is shamed by what Maurice makes her do.

When Elise and Benjamin first meet they clash and don't get along. But later they both need each other badly.

It was kind've ironic how they ran into each other but it was a great book! Judith Pella is one of my favorite authors so I guess that's why I like it. If you're a fan of Judith Pella you'll like this book too.

Summary: The preacher is the one you want to hate!
Review: This is the first time I ever read a Christian fiction book that made me want to give the preacher a swift kick in the pants! Although Benjamin considered himself called of God, he kept putting his religion and himself so high on a pedestal he alienated all the rest, even his wife and children. What a sad scenerio! I was spellbound as the story unfolded, showing God's marvelous grace to a a former prostitute slave, and the sad story of a preacher's wife. I am so happy I just found out there is to be a sequel!

Summary: Enjoyable Romance!
Review: This was probably one of Judith Pella's best books yet. I am looking forward to reading the sequel. I enjoyed watching the transformation of the characters. Each of them went through major personality and attitude changes especially Benjamin. I do recommend this book to anyone who enjoys Christian romances with substance.
