 With no where to sleep, danger surrounding you, and hunger gnawing at your stomach, living on the streets can be horrible. Author Laurel Houck shares one woman's tale as she fights to find her way back to God after dealing with addiction. SEARCHING FOR HOME is the latest gripping romance by Laurel Houck and will tug at your emotions as you begin to understand the depths of despair that Selah deals with each day. Now up for preorder, SEARCHING FOR HOME will be available in ebook and print on Oct. 29th. Blurb: Life on the streets is hard but it’s deadly when a young woman battles addiction… Where is home…when you’re homeless? Selah gets through life using lies, sex, and faux concern as a veneer to forget the past and to achieve personal gain. She barely tolerates her job bringing medicine to the streets. Will is the only man who has refused her body. She resents that his God stands between them. Will pastors the homeless no matter who or where they are. He conceals a past that is anything but pure. His biggest temptation is his love for Selah. But he refuses to compromise his faith. When Selah’s deceased husband appears to her—more dangerous in death than in life—the careful control she has used to cope slips away. Evil takes control as she falls far from the life she had carefully planned. And then farther still. Selah must make a radical choice as an epic spiritual battle rages. Because she has finally found a love worth protecting at all costs. Is there redemption at the intersection of brutal reality and saving grace? Searching For Home is a gripping and too-real tale of love, addiction, and redemption; written by the one woman, Laurel Houck, who has championed salvation for hundreds of people. This amazing tale will have you brushing tears from your cheeks and will show you a hidden world our eyes have skipped over as we travel through big cities and small. Fans of realistic fiction like Ruby (Between the Cracks, #1) by P.D. Workman and Broke(n) by S.T. Jones will love Searching for Home. LINKS: |
