Author Jennifer AlLee

This week, the Christian Fiction Blog Alliance is introducing
The Pastor's Wife
Abingdon Press (February 2010)
by Jennifer AlLee

ABOUT THE AUTHOR:

Jennifer AlLee was born in Hollywood, California and for the first 10 years of her life lived over a mortuary one block from Hollywood and Vine. An avid reader and writer, she completed her first novel in high school. That manuscript is now safely tucked away, never again to see the light of day. Her first inspirational romance, The Love of His Brother, was released in November 2007 by Five Star Publisher.

Besides being a writer, she is a wife and mom. Living in Las Vegas, Nevada, her husband and teenage son have learned how to enjoy the fabulous buffets there without severely impacting their waistlines. God is good!

ABOUT THE BOOK

Maura Sullivan never intended to set foot in Granger, Ohio, again. But when circumstances force her to return, she must face all the disappointments she tried so hard to leave behind: a husband who ignored her, a congregation she couldn't please, and a God who took away everything she ever loved.

Nick Shepherd thought he had put the past behind him, until the day his estranged wife walked back into town. Intending only to help Maura through her crisis of faith, Nick finds his feelings for her never died. Now, he must admit the mistakes he made, how he hurt his wife, and find a way to give and receive forgiveness.

As God works in both of their lives, Nick and Maura start to believe they can repair their broken relationship and reunite as man and wife. But Maura has one more secret to tell Nick before they can move forward. It's what ultimately drove her to leave him three years earlier, and the one thing that can destroy the fragile trust they've built.

I agree with the others, what is the secret?? Can it be that bad? Yeah, I guess. Will it be less bad now? Dunno. Sigh. I want to know. Oh, there's a link to Amazon. Guess I can find out after all.

Best Wishes Galen.

Sounds like an emotional book. I love the cover. Thanks for introducing us to it.

I have an off-topic question for Jennifer: In a couple of weeks we are going to Vegas to see Ka. Our kids are joining us. My son wants to go to the biggest buffet in Vegas. He has visions of lines of all kinds of food that he can choose from. Do you have a recommendation?

Hi All! Great to see you here.

Helen, I hope you have a great time in Vegas! There are lots of big buffets in Vegas, but one of my favorites is the Carnival World buffet at Rio. They have a great selection and is reasonably priced when compared to other high-end buffets. My husband and I do enjoy buffet-eating (it's one of the reasons we live here) but we usually only go when we have 2-for-1 coupons! Yes, we're cheap that way :+}
