Redemptive Acts I & II is the first story I've read of Nikki Walker but I can guarantee that it won't be the last.  I jumped in head first with the story and  immediately RELATED to Cherise's personality. There's an genuine innocence that Cherise carries that can't be faked; even as she is irrevocably broken and she struggles to claw her way back from  the brink of darkness, she still carries that sense peace. Some have said that she was too naive but I'd have to respectfully disagree. Cherise is one of those rare women who trust wholeheartedly until she is given a reason not to and although that can be a curse and a blessing, what's so great about this story that it never loses  sight of how that inner power flourishes within her.I loved Cherise's journey. Through one travesty after another, she grew both in strength and in will and I absolutely adore that even though she was a victim, she wasn't willing to play that role. She truly embodied the essence of Keep It Moving , despite all of adversity she faced. And her burgeoning relationship with Jonathan was a  breath of fresh air; the reader is allowed to watch this relationship blossom without the complexities of sex. It's a true friendship first and foremost, something Cherise desperately needed.This story had everything but what I loved most about it was that it showcased, beautifully, an endearing, loving relationship  between two people who  needed love the most.My only complaint is that it was just too short :DIf you are looking for a love story that will definitely tug on the heart strings, Redemptive Acts I&II; is definitely the book you should snatch up!Excellent work, Ms. Walker!
