Maybe One More Time by Christina C. Jones

adventurous dark funny tense fast-paced

5.0

Of ALL of the Vegas Nights novellas, this one is by FAR my favorite! Brandon “Blue” Garret has wrecked me in the most beautiful way! He’s handsome, business-minded, goal-oriented, and...he’s down right DANGEROUS! Nessa was a PROUDLY beautiful Brown woman was was hard-working that had a firm backbone. Brandon pulled so much out of Nessa, and I was okay with that. Their relationship was so cosmic; they needed one another!!! It’s okay to be a little rebellious from time to time; to test and push limits. They. Did. That. I’m gonna coin this novella as my favorite read of 2021. Period. Point blank. And THE END! Lol!

Praying for Your Future Husband: Preparing Your Heart for His by Robin Jones Gunn, Tricia Goyer

My God....

My God....

Never, in a million years, would I have thought to pray for a husband that I don't have yet. A sister in Christ advised me to read this book and I am so glad that she did. This book has opened up my eyes to so many knew things. This is very important to me, as I make a conscious decision to please Christ every day and strengthen my walk with Him. My prayer time is better and because prayer is one of the most intimate times that you can have with Christ, I am thankful for that. I encourage every woman, no matter your walk with Christ, to read this book...especially if you long for a love on earth and you're waiting on His timing. I thank God for the authors, Robin and Tricia! While you read this book, not only are you praying that God mold and be with your future husband, but YOU will be changed as well. The prayers; both for your future husband and yourself, the scripture references, the beautiful poems, the love stories from women who'd prayed for their spouse before they knew him, the exercises at the end of each chapter...Oh, this book is just wonderful!!! God bless!!
