Summary

Mary Madison was a child of unspeakable horrors, a young woman society wanted to forget. Now a divine power has set Mary free to bring life-changing hope and love to battered and abused women living in the shadow of the nation's capital. Mary is educated and redeemed, a powerful voice in Washington, D.C.--both to the political elite and to other women like her. But she also has a past that shamed polite society. Her experiences created in her a paralyzing fear, faithlessness, addiction, and promiscuity. At the crossroads of her life, only one power set Mary free and gave her a lifetime of love and hope. A power that could only be divine. Mary's grandmother, Peggy Madison, has spent her life praying for her granddaughter. Peggy clings to the belief that God has a special plan for Mary. Emma Johnson, a single mother fleeing an abusive relationship, wonders whether there is hope for her and her young daughters. She is desperate, broken, and unloved, tempted to commit the unthinkable. Then Mary Madison introduces Emma to the greatest love of all
