The Rings

Some love stories are written by heaven. Three thousand years ago, in the hill country of ancient Israel, a king came down a mountain road and lost his heart to a poor keeper of vineyards - a girl with earth on her hands and no fear in her eyes. Their love was real, and holy, and impossible; a crown could never keep her. So they made one vow, cut it across two golden rings, and sent the halves down through the centuries toward a love that would one day be free.
In a small Ohio town today, Justin Ballard is a man whose hands have forgotten how to receive. He mends what other people break and slips away before anyone can thank him - until the afternoon he reaches for the same small thing as Lilly, a woman who gives everything and will let no one give back to her. Their rings touch. An old woman reads a word she cannot believe. And two guarded hearts begin, slowly, to learn the one thing three thousand years have been waiting on: how to open a hand, and let love in, and be kept.
Set me as a seal upon thine heart... for love is strong as death. THE RINGS is a sweeping Christian romance that weaves two unforgettable love stories across time - a tale of faith, forgiveness, and a love written long before either of them were born.
