Christian Novel Review

Having always been an avid reader, since becoming a Christian I have found a wealth of reading material in Christian bookshops and in various second hand bookshops. I have found that in Christian novels one often finds truths that help in one’s Christian walk. I enjoy reading about how the various characters deal with life, and I also find I am the richer for reading a really good Christian novel. Certain authors, through their books, give you a real insight into their joys and struggles, which I find very interesting. The books which I am going to review are those which I have really enjoyed, and have read at least twice – some books, for example the “Mark of the Lion “ series by Francine Rivers, I have read at least five times each. The first books that I am going to talk about are the latest two novels by Francine Rivers,

ATTRACTED TO FIRE by DIANN MILLS

Product Details ATTRACTED TO FIRE by DiAnn Mills is a book that is well worth reading.  It is a story of intrigue and romance and has a good Christian message.
Ash Zinders is the Secret Service agent in charge of the team of six agents sent to guard the vice president's daughter, Lindsay, at a remote Texas ranch belonging to her father's best friend.  Ash is not at all impressed with the fact that one of the team members is a woman, Meghan Connors, as he is against women agents in general.  Meghan's dedication to her job, her efficiency and her beauty eventually win him over.  
Meghan has been chosen by the vice president specifically as she has had experience with addiction.  Her sister's addiction to drugs is very hard on Meghan and her mother.  
Lindsay is addicted to drugs and alcohol and has tried to take her own life.  There have been threats against her as well, and her wild behaviour whilst under the influence has the media in a feeding frenzy.  She is taken to the ranch in secret, but it is soon obvious to the agents that there is a mole in their midst who is working with the man who is trying to destroy Lindsay and her family.  When her father becomes president the attacks become more intense.
It is interesting to see how Lindsay responds to the agents and caregivers and comes to trust Meghan with her secret fear which leads her and Ash, with Chip's help, to the evidence they need to bring the conspiracy to an end.
We see this young girl, who has been controlled from her youth by an unscrupulous man who introduced her to drugs and alcohol, and who told her lies to make her feel unloved by her parents and not worth anything to anybody, finally able to make the right decisions for her life.
In this novel we see dedication to duty, to one another, and the effect that committed Christians have on those round about them when they live out their faith.  We also
see the singleness of purpose amongst those who have been entrusted with Lindsay's well being.  It is a very exciting book and hard to put down.  I really enjoyed it.
