Wanton. Tainted. Immoral. These were all words that could describe Penelope. After being forced into a world of harlotry to cover her parents' debts, Penny learned how to survive without feeling. When a mysterious man approaches Penny with an offer to free her from her situation, Penny soon discovers that leaving her tavern could not rid her of the reputation she gained as a harlot. Would anyone be able to see beyond her tainted past?
Abandoned by his father as a child, Ryland refuses to depend on anyone but himself. Surviving as a mercenary for wealthy landowners, he accepts an assignment to free a harlot from a life of slavery. Frustrated when he is forced to take her under his care, Ryland discovers there is more to this harlot than her beauty. Can her unshakeable faith bring him back to a Redeemer he has long since rejected?
Discover the story of a tainted woman in A Path to Acceptance.

Excerpt
“But you do call upon the Redeemer!” I countered. “I thought I was respecting your beliefs, but I don’t think you even know what you believe! You feel the Redeemer can redeem everyone but you!” The words came out of my mouth suddenly, surprising her and myself. “How is someone like me, who has wandered so far, supposed to believe in the Redeemer, when you, who loves him so thoroughly, refuses to believe that she can be fully redeemed and fully accepted? He has extracted you from that life of harlotry and your heart refuses to accept it, Penny! You refuse to be healed! Even now you think you have nothing to offer but your body!”
Her face contorted in grief and I regretted the harshness in my tone. “Let this go, Ryland,” she said firmly. “I beg you. I am not your concern.”
She turned and left, heading in the opposite direction than the tents we came through. I cursed myself for aggravating her. I cursed myself more for wanting to chase after her, hold her against me, and beg her forgiveness.
