Praise for Redemption’s Flame:

“Kaelyn E. Nelson crafts a beautiful image of the messy reality of humanity in her debut, Redemption's Flame. Filled with intricate world-building and stunning imagery, joy and heartache, devastation and hope, readers are sure to find themselves wrapped up in the reminder that no matter who we are—hero, villain, or both—we're never too far from the gift of salvation. So join in on this daring rescue mission that so wonderfully reflects how far our own Savior is willing to go to save us.”

— S.L. Klein, author of Waves of Redemption

Quote from Redemption’s Flame

“I am not a hero, nor am I a villain. I am a human.”
