Relocating to the small Georgia community of Rehoboth, Rev. Oliver becomes obsessed with the senior pastor's daughter, Elizabeth, which leads to tragic results and a guilty secret for both Rev. Oliver and Elizabeth.
For a girl in her teen years to be a mother, abandoned by her parents because of rape is hard - well she was semi-abandoned since her mother keep in touch with her while her father declared, because of the pain that she's dead and he has no daughter anymore. Elizabeth experienced a post-natal depression but God has been good to her and all her pain was replaced with her beautiful son and a love of her life in the soul of Nathaniel.
But no secrets remained hidden forever as Elizabeth's rapist thought he's forgiven but he's not forgotten and the sins he committed even he's a man of cloth.
I loved this book. It was very heartfelt I felt as though I knew the main character. I would recommend this for many people those who just love to read and also teenage girls. This book could be a powerful tool in a young girls life.
great story of a young girl being raped and impregnated and still lives her life. through all of the rudeness and unacceptance from her father because of the situation she overcomes it all and makes a good life for herslf and her child and in the end finds happiness, and love
The story and plot were great; however, the ending caused me to decrease my rating. The ending was like someone stopped talking in the middle of a conversation. There was no closure, far too many unanswered questions.
This is my 2nd time reading Rehoboth Road and i still enjoyed it. I would still recommend this book to anyone. It's a story worth reading and it will stay with you. The ups and downs of life the love of family and friends is what make this a good read.
I loved this book very heart felt this is the first book to a sequel called The Dancing Willow Tree if this book sounded incomplete that is the reason why. I look forward to that book now
This was an awesome story about triumph and determination. The layout was unexpected and kept you wanting more. I was a little disappointed with the ending.
I thought this was a good read. I had to struggle through the dialect. It would have been a better read without the dialect. It did not add to the storyline.
