But this change of heart has brought Bishop to a better understanding of what it means to be a person of faith. It has not been an easy journey, and at times the personal cost has been high. Change of Heart is the story of this transformation, from someone who actively sought the killer's imprisonment for the rest of his life to one who now visits him regularly in prison. As Christians we have an obligation to work to reconcile with those who have harmed us. ![]() Her responsibility as a Christian was not to simply tell herself that she'd forgiven the young man while secretly hoping he languished in prison the rest of his days. Over time she realized that God was asking more of her. ![]() ![]() But all the while she never once spoke the name of her sister's killer aloud, never once cared what had happened to him after he was convicted of the crime.

They still share an intense, almost maudlin attraction, but Ash (and readers) is never sure if it is Dane she's swooning over or if Coronado is pulling the strings. The two hatch a complicated plot to fool the surviving immortals and save Rhys. Ash tries her hardest to stay away despite their blood bond but when she finds out her absent brother Rhys has been murdering immortals with his deadly blood, possibly against his will, she knows Dane might have some information. Dane is now hosting Coronado in his body and has been thrown in the limelight as a handsome, wealthy playboy. Gr 9 Up-This follow-up to Blood and Salt takes the murderous scheming of immortals out of the cornfield and into the wealthy upper echelon of society. ![]() |
