Question: What do you get when you take "Dinner With a Perfect Stranger", "Sleepless In Seattle", and "While You Were Sleeping" and mix them all together?
Answer: You get one of THE BEST collaborative chick lit novels ever written!
Cheryl McKay and Rene Gutteridge make a dynamite writing duo. Cheryl created the characters and gave them life with her screenplay talents, which makes "Never the Bride" play like a movie for your mind.
Rene took the script and made it into a novel that keeps you flipping pages faster than Superman can fly. Together, they have created an unforgettable character with an unforgettable message.
Jessie Stone has always dreamed of finding true love and having a marriage like her parents had. But ten bridesmaid's dresses later, she's still looking and in pretty much all the wrong places.
When her latest speed dating ritual goes bust, Jessie is about to give up. Then God shows up and truly shakes up her world. Trouble is, can a control freak like Jessie give up the purple pen to the Almighty?
What happens when you truly do let God write your love story? Hilarity ensues as we watch Jessie do a "Job-like" impression with touches of tenderness and wit embedded in her dialogues with God.
When He asks her to give up her job to engage in helping men get...well, engaged--can things get any crazier? Yup...but you won't believe it til you read it!
If this novel doesn't take your breath away...I'm thinking you may not be breathing anymore! Some may quibble and call it irreverant...I call it a gorgeous representation of just how much God longs to be the One we are passionate for.
I'm giving "Never the Bride" the Golden Bookmark, with a purple feather pen as a charm. Surrender your pen of choice to the Author of life and see what He can and will do.
Trust me...life without Jesus is no life at all. Just ask Jessie!
Happy Reading!
