"[Angela Benson] has not created plaster saints, but real men and women who grapple with real-life issues." -The Romance Reader

"Awakening Mercy" is a wonderful Christian novel without being too "preachy." - TRF from Georgia

"Angela Benson magnificently weaves a romantic storyline that embraces the power of forgiveness." - Tyora Moody from South Carolina

"Ms. Benson, with AWAKENING MERCY, reinforces her place as one of the most talented writers of romance fiction in whichever genre she writes. This book, her first inspirational, confirms that she writes with emotion, only now her message is strengthened by her strong faith in God." -Romance in Color

Neither is prepared for what grows between them when CeCe comes to work at Genesis House.

REVIEWS

"Outstanding. . . This book was a soul searching experience because it made me remember [that] what God has for me is for [me] and when a door closes there is a reason." - Sonya from Georgia

"Good, clean but stirring 'real life' romance. I enjoyed it very much." G.L. from Ohio

"I loved this book from cover to cover." - Fran from Indiana

"This book is excellent. . . I am looking forward to hearing more on CeCe and Nathan[iel] in the future." -Bridgette from Nevada

"Ms. Benson paints a fine picture of the trials of a couple who must rely on their faith to make a go of a relationship in this 4-1/2 star read. She is just as compelling a writer in Christian romance as she is in contemporary." -Affaire de Coeur

"This novel by Benson, a first-time Christian-market author, pricks the conscience and stirs the soul while entertaining. Recommend to romantic fiction readers and to high school students, as it illustrates that actions have consequences." -CBA Marketplace
