The Masterpiece
by Francine Rivers
New York Times bestselling author Francine Rivers returns to her romance roots with this unexpected and redemptive love story, a probing tale that reminds us that mercy can shape even the most broken among us into an imperfect yet stunning masterpiece.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.
Like Roman, Grace is wrestling with ghosts and secrets of her own. After a disastrous marriage threw her life completely off course, she vowed never to let love steal her dreams again. But as she gets to know the enigmatic man behind the reputation, it’s as if the jagged pieces of both of their pasts slowly begin to fit together . . . until something so unexpected happens that it changes the course of their relationship―and both their lives―forever.
My Thoughts:
The MasterPiece by Francine Rivers is not to be missed! The two main characters, Roman and Grace will enter into your world and you will not be able to stop reading this book. It is note worthy to understand that I read this book cover to cover in one sitting. I was unable to put it down. However, I will say that anyone who has experienced signifiant trauma and has not healed from many of those events, I would caution in you in reading this book, especially if those are recent. This book can bring up strong emotions from the past or even the present and it would be a dis-service for me not to put that disclaimer in my review. That does not affect my review of this book in any way, but I do feel that it is necessary for readers to know. Between romance, tension, faith and real life, these characters are highly relatable. The story is a masterpiece all in its own work and one to be celebrated. I love how Francine writes this book and I think it is a an excellent book for fans of Ms River's books. If you have never read her books, I highly recommend grabbing this book and Redeeming Love. I give this book 5/5 stars.
