It will not provide you with light-hearted enjoyment, relaxing bedtime reading or even edge of the seat suspense. What it will give you is an undeniable, page-turning experience into the world of domestic abuse. It will hit you in the heart with poignant truths about redemption, forgiveness, friendship and true love. You will not soon forget the painful unfolding of the events in Penny’s life whether or not you know or care for someone in an abusive situation. By the final page you will care for anyone who has experienced it and gain a greater, more insightful understanding of the horror associated with this little talked about malady rampant in our society. Penny’s sweet but gullible and overly-trusting personality will capture your heart. You will hold your breath as you surge ahead through the chapters to find out what happens to Penny, her unborn baby and her abusive husband Trent. You will be enchanted by the characters of Penny’s friends Callie Mae and Fatima, women who know the true meaning of friendship and reach out to Penny, offering her the treasures of a loving heart, something Penny has not experienced nearly enough in her short life. Not to be forgotten is the deep spiritual struggle Penny undergoes throughout the book, learning to accept God’s mercy and grace in ways she never could before. She will grow closer to Him through her hardships as well as through the love of her friends. The all-encompassing truth that one is never alone and always has hope when they trust in the Lord will become real and relevant as you turn the pages of Penny’s story. Do not pick up this book for entertainment, though you will definitely be swallowed up in enthralling story. Pick it up for a new reminder of God’s faithfulness in suffering, His presence when we are most alone and the power in our hope, when it is grounded in Him. Read Wings of Glass. It will touch you in a way you don’t expect. I received this book from bookfun.org in exchange for my honest opinion. What will it take for Penny to admit to herself that her husband is an abuser? For years, she takes the abuse as the life she was dealt, and covers up for him, denying the truth. But after years a abuse, her life takes a different bend, and now circumstances force her to make difficult choices. With the help of two new friends, she sees what her life is and what it could be. But is she strong enough to choose the right path? Author Gina Holmes gives us a startling look at what life is like for an abused woman and what possibilities exist to help her free herself from her abuser. An enlightening tale of strength that comes from within and above, you will find yourself caught up with these characters and wondering how it will all end. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña

HTML:Winner of 2014 INSPY Award for General Fiction! ECPA 2014 Christian Book Award Finalist! From the best-selling author of Crossing Oceans comes a heartrending yet uplifting story of friendship and redemption. On the cusp of adulthood, eighteen-year-old Penny Carson is swept off her feet by a handsome farmhand with a confident swagger. Though Trent Taylor seems like Prince Charming and offers an escape from her one-stop-sign town, Penny's happily-ever-after lasts no longer than their breakneck courtship. Before the ink even dries on their marriage certificate, he hits her for the first time. It isn't the last, yet the bruises that can't be seen are the most painful of all. When Trent is injured in a welding accident and his paycheck stops, he has no choice but to finally allow Penny to take a job cleaning houses. Here she meets two women from very different worlds who will teach her to live and laugh again, and lend her their backbones just long enough for her to find her own.
