I’m linking up with Breaking the Spine and sharing a novel that I’m eagerly anticipating. A Life Intercepted is the next release from the talented Charles Martin. Ever since I read Unwritten and declared it one of the best books I read in 2013, I couldn’t wait to get my hands on more of Charles Martin’s work.
Cover reveal and book blurb from Amazon:
Twelve years ago Matthew “the Rocket” Rising had it all. Married to his high school sweetheart and one of the winningest quarterbacks in the history of college football, he was the number one NFL draft pick. But on the night of the draft, he plummeted from the pinnacle of esteem. Falsely accused of a heinous crime with irrefutable evidence, it seemed in an instant all was lost–his reputation, his career, his freedom, and most devastatingly, the love of his life.
Having served his sentence and never played a down of professional football, Matthew leaves prison with one goal–to find his wife, Audrey, whom no one has seen since the trial. He returns to an unwelcoming reception from his Gardi, Georgia, hometown to learn that Audrey has taken shelter from the media with the nuns at a Catholic school. There she has discovered a young man with the talent to achieve the football career Matthew should have had. All he needs is the right coach. Although helping the boy means Matthew violates the conditions of his release and–if discovered–reincarceration for life, he’ll take the chance with hope of winning back Audrey’s love.
A Life Intercepted releases September 2nd. You can connect with Charles Martin at his
