Publisher's Summary

Two women. All alone. With no provisions. Can they find hope in a foreign land?

Ruth leaves her home with a barren womb and an empty future after losing her husband. She forsakes her abusive parents and follows the woman she has grown to love as a true parent, her late husband's mother, Naomi.

Ruth arrives in Israel with nothing to recommend her but Naomi's love. She is destitute, grief-stricken, and unwanted by the people of God. But God has great plans for her. While everyone considers Ruth an unworthy outsider, she is shocked to find the owner of the field—one of the wealthiest and most honored men of Judah—is showing her favor.

Long since a widower and determined to stay that way, Boaz finds himself irresistibly drawn to the foreign woman with the dark, haunted eyes. He tells himself he is only being kind to his cousin Naomi's chosen daughter when he goes out of his way to protect her from harm, but his heart knows better.

Obstacles. Heartache. Withered dreams. How can God forge love, passion, and new hope between two such different people?

Another Must Read Book by Tessa Afshar

If you haven’t read a book by Tessa Afshar before, I can’t find words enough to tell you why you should do so without delay. In The Field of Grace is so beautiful, it keeps you pondering scriptural and theological ideas. I am amazed that I haven’t noticed before that Jesus is like a Kinsman Redeemer, giving to us eternal life through his sacrifice on the cross. This story of Ruth, Boaz and Naomi brings this together so beautifully. I thank the Lord God Almighty for the talent of Tessa Afshar and that she loves Jesus with all her heart and shares that love through her writing. I am so encouraged, and uplifted by her novels. They are the best ever. Thank you Tessa!

Fabulous Ruth, Naomi and Boaz and narrator!

Wonderful how the narrator brings every character to
Life. Made me think about Ruth and Boaz in a new way. How amazing is our Heavenly Father and how He brings everything together
