We meet Brenna Blackman again, who also calls herself Raven Black. She has lived a life of crime, after running away from her father at sixteen, and wants to straighten up now and live a more normal life. She is skiing at her favourite place when she is found by her father and Thomas, the P.I. her father has employed to find her, and also by the F.B.I. The agents whisk her away, insisting that she work undercover as a nanny to crime boss Anthony Giordano's children in exchange for them letting her off her crimes. She has to try and get information for them so they can put him away for good. The plot has many twists and turns and things are not always as they seem.
It is heartwarming to see how Raven relates to Rico and Maria who don't receive any affection from their self-centered father and who miss their mother. She knows what it is like to be ignored by her father and her heart bleeds, especially for Rico who can't seem to please Giordano no matter what he does.
It is a story of redemption, of second chances, of unconditional love. We are reminded throughout of the One who loved us enough to give up everything to save us.
I really enjoyed the book for the good story and the strong Christian message.
