Water from My Heart

"Love, redemption, selflessness are all a part of Martin's newest story and he uses his superb ability to string words together in the most effective way....This is not your usual summertime read. It stuns you with its power.... pass it on to your best friend. You couldn't give someone a better gift."

"Amazingly meaningful and deep...The author's gifts for turning a phrase and multi-dimensional characterization are beyond superlative....Highly recommended."

"A touching tale of love, loss, and redemption."

"Martin is the new king of the romantic novel. . ..A Life Intercepted is a book that will swallow you up and keep you spellbound."

"A spellbinding novel...Charles Martin took the threads of his storyline and wrapped them around my heart. His unforgettable characters captivate as they confront their hidden pasts and build upon their futures with faith, friendship, and grace."

"Avid football fans will be rewarded....Equal parts crime thriller/mystery and old-fashioned love story."

"A beautiful story of love, redemption, and football. A winning combination."

"Could easily be ripped from today's headlines. A moving story of lost dreams, unending love, truth seeking and in the end, inspiring redemption. This one is not to be missed!"

"Martin's story charges headlong into the sentimental territory-and best-seller terrain-of The Notebook, which doubtless will mean major studio screen treatment."

"Every word Martin writes seems to be purposefully chosen and adds to the beautiful picture he paints with prose. The characters are so real they radiate from the page. Readers will be moved, touched and changed."
