Synopsis

The inspiring true story of Angela Williams, daughter of a wealthy British lord, who exchanged ballgowns for boots to help women of the red-light district discover beauty beyond labels as she journeys from extravagant life to extravagant love."I was about to enter a very different world from the one I had known all my life, and I would be lying if I said that I was feeling comfortable and confident about it. Yet my feet kept pushing me forward because I knew there was a purpose for me being here. I couldn't imagine a world where pure love does not exist, where love is merely transactional. I had to see this world for myself."Entering the red-light areas of England's most violent cities is not somewhere people usually dream of venturing. However, for Angela, this became her reality.Born into one of the wealthiest families in England, and the daughter of a British lord, Angela jumps from ballgowns to boots to give us an intimate, honest and somewhat humorous behind-the-scenes look into the dichotomies of living between two opposite worlds.In confronting her own Hollywood glamorised portrayal of prostitution, Angela discovered a desperate world with many hidden faces. Her commitment to discover the beauty beyond the labels and show extravagant love to the most stigmatised and misunderstood in society not only changed their lives, but hers too.This book is a challenging and powerful reminder that we each have a divine purpose:to love humankind just as Jesus did - with extravagance.

Goodreads review by Rebecca on September 23, 2021

I loved this book! It was fascinating to read of the 'extravagant' life Angela grew up in as the daughter of a British lord, and then to see how her heart for others took her to the 'other side of the tracks', as she worked through struggles and obstacles with determination that saw many people impa......more
