Average customer review:
if the book had another subtitle, it could apprpriately be “A Cord of Three Strands,” referring to the verse in Ecclesiastes that explains the strong bond that is created when God connects two people together…
Though it was really a challenging book for the obvious reason of broadening one’s perspective on issues like prejudice, homelessness, and materialism, the most powerful message from where i sit was - not surprisingly - one of love… particularly as the book shared in great detail the painful story of Ron and his wife, Debbie… I’ll leave it at that so as not to ruin any of the unknowns, but it might make sense to keep some tissues handy when you read though this one…

Product Description
A dangerous, homeless drifter who grew up picking cotton in virtual slavery.
An upscale art dealer accustomed to the world of Armani and Chanel.
A gutsy woman with a stubborn dream.
A story so incredible no novelist would dare dream it.
It begins outside a burning plantation hut in Louisiana . . . and an East Texas honky-tonk . . . and, without a doubt, in the heart of God. It unfolds in a Hollywood hacienda . . . an upscale New York gallery . . . a downtown dumpster . . . a Texas ranch.
Gritty with pain and betrayal and brutality, this true story also shines with an unexpected, life-changing love.
