Review of His Last Resort by M. A. Malcom and new releases.

If you've never heard of her before, M. A. Malcom is a new Christian fiction author that is making a name for herself.  Her newest release, His Last resort was just released this past Tuesday and the kindle version is free for a limited time.  Here's my review.

Robert Mardisen is a businessman and Seminary Student.  He comes in contact with Claire Foxwood, who he feels is not a Christian because she wears make up and her business focuses on makeovers.  Thankfully they both come in contact with "Aunt" Ruby, a spiritually sound elder who dispenses Godly wisdom in a hilarious fashion.  There are not too many times where I can't stand the male character, but at the beginning, Robert is truly a character you can't stand.  It goes to show you that people in church need to not be so judgemental.  It was a great story, and I can't wait to see more from this author.  I give it 5 stars.

When it Happens to You by A. D.

About the book

“You only live once” is not just a motto, but a way of life for Kim Williams. Known as the feistiest one in a tight-knit group of friends known as the “sisterhood”, Kim lives her life in full color and with no regrets. It’s been that way since a doctor’s visit ten years ago. 

Despite her religious upbringing, when it comes to men, she’s the love ‘em and leave ‘em type, but with the charming finance manager by day and comedian by night, Darius Tolliver, close on her heels, she works tirelessly to escape his grasp before she falls prey to the powerful connection between them. 

As an elementary school teacher, she’s been content with her life as is, but Darius and another doctor’s visit is making her existing reality a fleeting thought.

Will Kim yield to her stubbornness and let love in, or will she run from it forever?

Review of The Final Ultimatum byUnoma Nwankwor and New Releases

With me being raised and practically born in Church, one of my ultimate favorite genre's is Christian Fiction  I happened to come across this particular author because of a recommendation of one of my favorites and I have been a total fan ever since.

Her latest release is called The Final Ultimatum and is a follow up to a story called The Christmas Ultimatum.  In the Christmas Ultimatum, we are introduced to Olanma Obinze (AKA Ola) and Abayomi Rice (AKA Yomi) .  In this newest story, the couple has been married for 5 years, After Abayomi in a way manipulated Olanama and they just can't seem to get it together.  To prove her worth to her father, Olanama has been working in his company in Nigeria instead of living with her Husband in Los Angeles, CA.  At this point, Olanama is tired and has sent Yomi divorce papers.  .  Yomi doesn't really want one, but resorts to his previous ways by giving Ola an ultimatium:  Pretend that all is well regarding their marriage to his family when they attend his sister Zara's wedding, which will take place in Cape Town, South Africa.  Will Yomi's ultimatium work to get his wife back, or will his plan backfire?

One thing I really like about Unoma's work is that you get not only romance but African spice in each and every story.  God's word shines in the story and there is always a message from God.  In this particular, you learn about faith, forgiveness and trust in God.  Unoma did a marvelous job with these characters.

I could hear love and pain in his voice.

The thing was, she told a few others and me she could never be faithful, that she was a whore. I didn’t care I had to have her. A year later, when I got orders for overseas I married her.
