![]() ![]() Her parents died when she was a little girl, and God has become her one true father.

The Masterpiece is a story of survival, grief, forgiveness, family, and love. Rivers has a knack for writing long books with unique plot lines and memorable characters, and The Masterpiece is no exception. Many times they feel like or even try giving up, but God is not done with them yet. Her characters all have major flaws and pasts that haunt them. ![]() This is one of the reasons that I love Francine Rivers’s novels. ![]() Therefore, Christian fiction should be real and not put on an act, pretending to be completely wholesome and pure. Being a Christian myself, I know that no one is perfect and Christians have just as many faults as everyone else. Many times Christian fiction can become a little too squeaky clean, which distracts from an exciting or enticing story line and pace. Having read and loved Redeeming Love, one of Rivers’s previous novels, I had an inkling that I would enjoy her newest work, fittingly titled The Masterpiece. The Masterpiece is contemporary Christian fiction at its best. ![]()
