Story
A successful LA artist, Roman Velasco appears to have everything he could possibly want - money, women, fame. Only Grace Moore, his reluctant, newly hired personal assistant, knows how little he truly has. The demons of Roman's past seem to echo through the halls of his empty mansion and out across his breathtaking Topanga Canyon view. But Grace doesn't know how her boss secretly wrestles with those demons: by tagging buildings as the Bird, a notorious but unidentified graffiti artist - an alter ego that could destroy his career and land him in prison.

5 stars!
"A Voice in the Wind" by Francine Rivers is an extraordinary novel that captivated me from beginning to end. It's a powerful narrative that immerses you in a world filled with raw emotions, unveiling a lesser-known story of the tumultuous relationship between the Jewish people and the Romans during a challenging era.
Rivers's exceptional storytelling prowess effortlessly evokes a wide range of emotions within the reader. I found myself experiencing sadness, love, joy, and even hate alongside the well-developed characters. The depth of emotion conveyed throughout the book is truly remarkable, making it an incredibly immersive reading experience.
The novel sheds light on the hardships endured by the Jewish people under the oppressive rule of the Romans, a historical aspect often overlooked. Rivers skillfully weaves together historical accuracy and vivid imagination, creating a vivid tapestry that brings this period to life. Through her writing, I gained a profound understanding of the struggles faced by the Jewish community, deepening my empathy and appreciation for their resilience.
The author's ability to intricately describe the nuances of the characters' lives and their intricate relationships is commendable. The complex and multifaceted personalities of the protagonists, combined with their intertwining stories, make for a truly phenomenal read. I became emotionally invested in their journeys, rooting for their successes and feeling their pain and triumphs as if they were my own.
The anticipation for the sequel is palpable as "A Voice in the Wind" leaves readers hungry for more. Rivers has created a world that lingers in the mind long after the final page, leaving readers eagerly awaiting the next installment to continue the enthralling saga.
In conclusion, "A Voice in the Wind" is a masterpiece that deserves every bit of its five-star rating. Francine Rivers has crafted a novel that combines historical significance, intense emotions, and an engaging plot. This book is a must-read for anyone seeking a captivating story that leaves a lasting impact. I eagerly await the next chapter in this remarkable series and eagerly recommend it to fellow readers.

A love story like no other.....
This book was graphic and well-written. At times you might wonder if you should continue but I recommend you do. The message God wants for you will be revealed if you but open your heart, see clearly past all the images your mind can conjure up as you get a glimpse into this tragic time. Times not so different from the times we're in today. You'll see what bondage and freedom really is. You'll understand the beauty of faith and obedience in God. Your heart will know fully the love and hope for those who trust and obey the Lord. God's ways are not our ways. His answers to prayers are not always as we want them to be but they're always how He wills, to His glory and the best for us. Happily ever after sure was turned inside out for me. I feel changed inside as a result of this story. God help me to have a faith like Hadassah had in this story. Holy Spirit help me to love and live as she did.

The Story Not The Narrator
I listened to the sample of this and almost wasn't willing to purchase it because I could tell I didnt like the narrator. Mispronunciation, tone, and his voice overall were a challenge but I decided being able to listen to this incredible story while I work was worth it. It is, though I think it would be so much better read by someone else.
