Most of them were quite good but <em>Every Star in the Sky<\/em> may be the best one yet. The author does a marvelous job of communicating to her readers the torment experienced by the victims while keeping the narrative clean and without graphic details.<\/p>\n<p>The excellent plot moves along at a steady pace with several twists and turns that kept me turning the pages. I didn\u2019t want to put this book down. Action and suspense, faith and hope, love and forgiveness are key elements of the story.<\/p>\n<p>Starr was a wonderful character whose faith sustained her over the years of bondage. Instead of bowing to despair, she always attempted to help and encourage the other girls enslaved by the trafficking ring. Cole was the perfect hero, protective and patient with Starr. She learned quickly that he could be trusted.<\/p>\n<p>Every Star in the Sky should be a must read for most readers. It is an honest portrayal of victims of human trafficking yet offers hope to those bound by it. God is always with his children despite their circumstances even when we feel abandoned and without hope.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-18375 aligncenter size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/divider2.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"317\" height=\"61\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/divider2.png 317w, https:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/divider2-150x28.png 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 317px) 100vw, 317px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong><em>I voluntarily reviewed a copy of this book provided by The Novel Way Blog Tours with the Mosaic Collection.

While it feels like a trend, I think it is a great deal more than that. I truly believe that El Roi, the God who sees, is revealing His heart for these precious women (and some boys and men).<\/p>\n<p>When the idea for Every Star in the Sky came to me, I was in the middle of writing another book. I tried to shelve the new idea to work on when I finished my current project, but it refused to wait its turn. I had to set what I was working on aside and write Starr\u2019s story out in its entirety before I was able to return to the original project.<\/p>\n<p>This was a powerful lesson to me that it is God who is laying these stories on authors\u2019 hearts, asking them to put names and faces\u2014even fictional ones\u2014to these beautiful, hurting, traumatized souls in order to bring them to the forefront of readers\u2019 attention.<\/p>\n<p>These stories are not only for entertainment. They are a call to action. After reading them and thereby gaining a deeper understanding of this heinous practice that exists and is prevalent in every corner of the world, including North America, readers may then feel compelled to do more. Our primary responsibility as believers is to pray. Pray that these modern-day slaves will be freed. That they will find healing in Jesus Christ and hope for their future. And that all those perpetuating this evil will be brought to justice.<\/p>\n<p>While continuing to pray, some may also want to look into organizations that help those caught up in the sex trade to escape and begin a new life. I mention a couple of these organizations in my letter to readers at the end of Every Star in the Sky, but there are many others that are working\u2014often at risk to staff or volunteers\u2014to free involuntary sex workers and to support them in their journey of healing. Donating money or becoming involved in these organizations in other ways is a powerful response to God\u2019s call to remember and to fight for these women and men that He loves.<\/p>\n<p>My hope and prayer for this book and all others written on this topic is that God will use them as He sees fit to help accomplish these objectives. And that readers will not only be drawn to pray for the victims of trafficking but will also be reminded that the God who placed every star in the sky and knows each of them by name knows their names too.<\/p>\n<p>The theme of the two sparrows for a penny series is the same as it is for all my books\u2014that we are never alone. God has promised that He will not leave us or forsake us, whatever we are going through. May you be reminded and deeply impacted by that as you read Every Star in the Sky and as you pray for all victims of human trafficking, that they will experience the truth of that promise for themselves.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-24497 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/mosaic-separator.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"474\" height=\"138\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/mosaic-separator.png 474w, https:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/mosaic-separator-150x44.png 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 474px) 100vw, 474px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Connect with Sara:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Website: <a href=\"http:\/\/saradavison.org\">On the Edge Suspense \u2013 On the Edge Suspense (saradavison.org)<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Facebook &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/authorsaradavison\">Author Sara Davison<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Twitter &#8211; Sara Davison (<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/sarajdavison\">@sarajdavison<\/a>)<\/p>\n<p>Instagram &#8211; Sara Davison (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/davisonsara\/\">@davisonsara<\/a>)<\/p>\n<p>BookBub &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bookbub.com\/authors\/sara-davison\">@saradavison1<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Newsletter Subscription: On the Edge Suspense \u2013 On the Edge Suspense <a href=\"https:\/\/saradavison.org\/connect\/\">https:\/\/saradavison.org\/connect\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text admin_label=&#8221;BLOG STOPS&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.14.8&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-24497 aligncenter size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/mosaic-separator.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"474\" height=\"138\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/mosaic-separator.png 474w, https:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/mosaic-separator-150x44.png 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 474px) 100vw, 474px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>ADDITIONAL BLOG STOPS<\/strong>:<\/p>\n<p>March 2\u00ad \u2013 Cardinal Bluff (<a href=\"Https:\/\/cardinalbluff.com\">Https:\/\/cardinalbluff.com<\/a>)<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Angela D.
