My Review
Alana Terry packs a punch like always in this emotional, truth filled suspense. Alana never shies away from diving into weighty topics and giving us the character's point of view, insecurities, hurts, and fears. In this book, we dive into the world of a life on the streets, sexual abuse, and prostitution. The author is able to give us a realistic look at this without being overly vulgar or using offensive language. The author gives us an inside look of people we are so quick to judge when looking from the outside without knowing their entire story. The author weaves a story of salvation, true love that is found in Christ alone, and redemption, and brings us suspense to boot. Blessing is really a heroine- so complex and developing with every turn of the page. The villain was so clearly portrayed that it gave the suspense a real jump factor to it. If you love suspense, this one is for you. Even if you're just looking for an inspirational journey of hope- this one is for you.
I received a complimentary copy of this book, and all opinions given are entirely my own.

More from Alana
Are you afraid of anything? Maybe you have a phobia, like a fear of spiders, heights, or (if you’re weird like me) fish. (That’s a story for another day!)When I was pregnant with our first son, I had some weird nightmares which fueled my fears. One night I woke up my husband in a panic to tell him to pray for our baby because we were being chased by a demonic cheese grater (yes, you read that right – a demonic kitchen appliance!). Regularly in my nightmares, I dream that someone or something is after my kids (and they’re usually not possessed cooking utensils, by the way).
One way I work through my fears as a mom is to turn them into stories. And even though I haven’t found a way to work a demonic cheese grater into my novels, you can read about a mother’s worst nightmare in this novel, Blessing on the Run.
Blessing has worked hard to turn her life around after a rough life on the streets, but in this exciting suspense novel, her past it about to catch up to her.
Join Blessing and her parents (if you’re a fan of the Kennedy series you already know who they are!) for an adrenaline-packed thrill ride you won’t soon forget.
