More About the Author

Maureen Hager is an author, inspirational speaker, and blogger. Her book, Love’s Bullet: A Wounded Victim in a Biker Gang War Transformed by God’s Love, recounts her misguided search for love and acceptance that lured her into the life of an outlaw motorcycle gang. Caught up in a violent gang war, she suffered two gunshot wounds from M16 rifles when a rival gang opened fire on the clubhouse. While severely wounded, this act of violence was a catalyst for God to work in her life and gave her a way to escape from her captivity. After suffering physical, emotional, and spiritual trauma, Maureen heard the gospel and gave her heart to the Lord, and her road to a restored life began. As a survivor and an overcomer, Maureen’s passion lies in empowering others to receive hope, healing, and restoration from their brokenness through God’s transforming love and grace. Her testimony of deliverance shows the depth of God’s redemptive love for those who seek Him. She is an advocate for anti-human trafficking awareness and mentors girls who have been victims and other at-risk teens. Maureen is living a restored life with her husband, Tom, in western North Carolina. They enjoy spending time with their two grown daughters and their lively grandchildren.
