Who Said It Would Be Easy?
Charisse Ellison is a beautiful twenty-nine-year-old single woman who is new to her faith, but convinced that her relationship with God is the only way to have the truly fulfilling life she desires--one that includes a husband and children. Stefan Cooper is a thirty-three-year-old bachelor who has no desire to change his ways. Tall, muscular, and strikingly handsome, Stefan is used to getting what he wants from the opposite sex but is intrigued by Charisse's seeming indifference to his charms. The couple's intense romance leads them on a journey that challenges the bravado Stefan has held on to for most of his adult life and forces Charisse to see that God's answered prayers don't always come packaged the way we expect. Who Said It Would Be Easy? is a story that offers hope in situations that, at first seem hopeless, and shows that through faith in an all-powerful God, even the most painful experiences can culminate in true joy and peace--P.
