Book Overview
A rising football star is falsely accused of a heinous crime and must risk everything to win his wife after returning to their small George hometown in this tale of loss, love, and redemption by New York Times bestselling author Charles Martin. 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.

Wonderful book on Second Chances
Published by Judy , 5 years ago
Charles Martin is one of my very favorite authors. From the first to the last page, he has you involved in the story and hoping the best for the main characters. The main character in A Life Intercepted is a football star named Matty. As Charles weaves his story, the reader is drawn into a personal relationship with Matty, who is wrongly accused of a terrible crime. But Matty is kind even to the people who have wronged him. So, grab a box of tissues, and sit down to read a wonderful story about hope, love, and forgiveness.
