He tried to leave the past behind, but it won’t leave him…

Ex-gang member Garrett Lovett is a new creature in Christ. At least, he’s trying to be. He’s got a wholesome routine, a place on the IronWorks football team, and a pretty woman he wants to know better. But when the old gang resurfaces with the ultimatum to re-up or face consequences, Garrett has tough decisions to make. These guys know how to get to him—his addictions, his fears. When things get life-threatening, Garrett must decide if this God he’s heard about is real or not.

And if so, can he rescue Garrett and those he loves before it’s too late?

My Thoughts

I didn't realize that this was the fourth book in the series when I signed up. I clearly wasn't paying attention. I wish I would've read the other three books in the series so I could've had more connection with the characters. 

The story centered around a church ministry focusing on ex-gang members, addicts, and alcoholics. I really liked that Ms. Rodante used that as her premise. It also gave way to showing the darkness of spiritual warfare throughout the book. Which she portrayed very well. It makes you stop and look at what's going on in our world today. 

I was married to an alcoholic and I know firsthand the demon that exists within a bottle of booze.

Linda K. Rodante is a new author for me and I enjoy reading books with spiritual warfare in them so I definitely will be adding her books to my list.
