About the Book
Ramona Carson is a Christian who is extremely opinionated, even judgmental, especially toward homeless people and those on public assistance. She sees nothing wrong with how she treats people or her attitude. While enjoying lunch in the park with her coworker Liz, a homeless man interrupts, asking for food. So much for loving thy neighbor and walking in love–she begins to belittle and insult him.
However, things are about to become interesting. Seeing him over the next few weeks, Ramona engages him in brief conversations, and learns his name is Gary Dividson. From their very first encounter, she has no idea just how much he would affect her world and shatter her preconceived notions. She begins to question her heart and walk with God, facing her hurts and disappointments.
They say pride comes before a fall... so, watch out! One afternoon spent in an abandoned lot with a reverend and homeless people compel her to reevaluate the Christian values she previously prided herself on having. Now she’s forced to see how cruel and hurtful she has been to so many people and ask for forgiveness while finding love for herself. Maybe...

Reviews (Excerpts)
- "This is a book for all people. It will teach all of more about how we should treat others and live our lives. [...] A must read for everyone!!! " - Penne (Amazon)
- "[...] This book turned out to be a very good page turner. I like the way the characters evolved throughout the book. The author did a great job drawing you into the story and never leaving you out there. As a matter of fact there are a few amazing stories which made this book though provoking but not too deep.[...]" - Brown Vee (Amazon)
- "[...] We never know what a person is going through and should never judge them. Some of us turn our nose up at homeless people when we see them beg for money and I know I have done this myself. But after reading this story I will think twice before I do that and lend a helping hand. Great Read!! " - L.T. Dorsett
