Love Off Script #3
If you love somebody, let them go, for if they return, they were always yours. If they don’t, they never were. ~ Kahlil Gibran
The only book I read from Angela Ruth Strong is her first one in this series called “Husband Auditions” and I thought that was nothing short of amazing, but wow, this one blew me away even more! I think because it’s a second-chance romance and those are my top favorite.
So Charlie and Nicole were on their way to marital bliss years ago, but he decided making a documentary in Peru was more important. Gasp…right?!?! Oh, but it gets better, he also believes God called him to marry Nicole and that hasn’t changed at all. So, when opportunity comes to work with her and possibly walk her down the aisle for real this time, he’s certain it will work. There’s just one problem, Nicole wants nothing to do with that! You can imagine this causes all sorts of consternation. Charlie, for all his zany weirdness and blunt logic, has at least one thing to learn… how to woo a woman. Yep, that’s the magic formula that is necessary to form a lifetime commitment. Nicole wants someone who chooses her first and Charlie needs a lesson in love.
This has humor, funny banter, missteps and misunderstandings, redemption, second-chances, and a very poignant lesson that no matter what, God always chooses us! Like the parable when Jesus left the ninety-nine sheep to save the one...which is referenced multiple times. The ending made me cry so much that I was trying to read through blurry, watery eyes. It’s SO good and has such a strong reminder of how God values, cherishes, and loves us no matter our messes, mistakes or failures. Just because He has called us HIS!
My favorite parts of this book are all the love quotes before each chapter. I’m writing them all down in a notebook to ponder later on! *I received a complimentary copy from the author and Kregel Publishers and was not obligated to leave a favorable review. All opinions expressed here are mine alone *
BackCover Blurb:
Charlie Newberg is sure about one thing: Nicole Lemaire is the woman God wants him to marry. There's a slight problem, though—he's already left her once. The day before their wedding. To make a documentary.
But he's got a plan. The marketing firm she works for is the ideal choice for promoting his new film. Collaborating will give him the perfect chance to propose again, so he conspires with her boss to make sure she runs the campaign for the same kind of documentary Charlie left her—basically at the altar—for.
Despite Nicole's resistance, the two work well together. But Charlie's going to need more than teamwork to convince the jilted bride to give him a second chance. In fact, he might need to fall in love in a way he's never really understood.
