Redemption On The Mountain is a romantic, suspense novel set in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Appalachia. The story weaves the tale of a city woman, Alex, who years ago left behind her love and devotion to God and filled the void with worldly wisdom, wealth and physical desires. She lives in a world of high stakes investments, where money makes the world turn. She finds herself deceived by those she trust and becomes the target of an elaborate scheme. She goes on the run and finds hiding and comfort in a remote hollow. The stark contrast of Alex's time in Richmond and her new existence in Appalachia is a life-changing experience. She sheds her designer garb and wears smocks. She trades in her love for trendy, chic eateries for a diet of corn and beans. Her love of expensive cars and labels is replaced with the love of the land, family and God. She gains her strength through a fine Christian man and his strong conviction of character. This is truly a story of returning home. It's never too late and you've never wandered too far, if you will only allow God to prick and change your heart.
