Mama B #2
A Time to Dance
Mama B thought her life would return to normal, but when her nephew, Derrick, comes knocking on her door, she has to reconsider. Though she's not known for housing marital fugitives, she realizes Derrick is looking for more than a place to stay; he needs help finding his way back to God.
Of course, help is almost Mama B's middle name until Henrietta crosses the line with her accusations about Mama B's intentions with the recently widowed pastor. Mama B isn't looking for romance with either the pastor or her suitor, Dr. Wilson--but will love come looking for her?

A Time to Dance. This book takes Mama B on another adventure with a family member. Her nephew, Derrick shows up on her doorstep asking to stay a while because he was having trouble with his wife and the law. Mama B comes to the rescue helps Derrick learn more about God and what he was doing in his life. Meanwhile, Libby kept trying to get Mama B to go out with Dr. Wilson. Libby double dared Mama B to call Frank and go out with him. She called and they went out to the movies but it wasn't as pleasant at first. Frank then ask her to go dancing with him. The turned out to be the best thing Mama B did with Frank. They now have a standing date to go salsa dancing every Friday. This was a great read!!!

Inspirational, Encouraging, and Funny! Mama B reminds me of my grandmothers!
I was looking for books that were light and funny. I came across the Mama B series through an Amazon email. I had not read a book by this author before, nor heard of her. I'm so glad I purchased this series. So uplifting, encouraging, and funny. Just what the doctor ordered. I purchased this series yesterday while getting my hair braided and have already read books 1 and 2, moving on to book 3 now. Teaching God's word and the power of his word in such an uplifting and funny way. I am now a fan of Ms. Michelle Stimpson and will be purchasing more of her books.

Great Story
Not a typical book I would read but I loved the first installment that I got for free and had to buy the second one and will be buying the rest of the series. Mama B is helping me With my faith the same way she helps her relatives. Great story but the lessons learned are even better!

Mama B
It is refreshing to read about real life people with real life problems. It may take a moment but realize the solution will always be the Word of God

This Novella blessed me! I just love Mama B and her godly wisdom and Southern spunk as well as her honesty. I can’t wait to read the rest of the series. It would be worth a month of Kindle Unlimited just for these in my opinion.

"Mama B - A Time to Dance" by Michelle Stimpson was 'Book 2 of this authors series. We find Mama B is still the "Godly woman who keeps her family and friends lifted up in the name of Jesus at all times." We find Mama B in this novel still full of 'grace and prayer.'

In this novel we find Mama B giving some wisdom to a relative who has come into some trouble and needs some intervention that only Mama B can give. Will he listen to Mama B? Well, you will get all of these questions answered as you read through "Mama B- A Time to Dance."
If you like Christian fiction reads you will love this excellent read. For the scriptures will tie right into the story and can relate to your everyday life. Be ready for some laugh out loud

An awesome quick read. Everyone needs a circle that has a Mama B and a Mrs Ophelia. Prayer warriors and intercessors that are quick to pray, willing to help when they can ,but ain't afraid to tell you the truth. I loved that the characters were flawed but still saved older women. And Mama B was not to old nor religious to see others points of views about God and His ways. I really liked that Mama B and Mrs Ophelia were older ladies that were vivacious and in good health and enjoying life and friendships. I mean Mama B was salsa dancing, driving herself in her p t cruiser and dating at the age of 72. I liked how Mama B would lead Derrick & Twyla and even when she was correcting them she did it with love. Always to get them to see their responsibility in the situation. And even when she herself was wrong in a situation like the incident with Henretta and the flier, she wasn't to stubborn or self-righteous to go back and make it right. I wanna be just like them as I age still living and enjoying life with a little dash of Mother Pugh's "just put it out there
and tell it like it is" truth telling.
and tell it like it is" truth telling.

Mama B is back and better than ever. Just when she thought she had her house back, here comes her nephew...with issues of his own. Once again, it's Mama B to the rescue, in more ways than one.

Love Mama B!
This is the second Mama B story I have read and I enjoyed both of them! I love the fact the author shows that even us Christians have to repent sometimes. I'm about to start book 3 and purchase book 4. I have read more books by this author and enjoyed them as well.

Loving Mama B
I love Mama B, she says and think exactly what I'm thinking sometimes in regards to people but at the same time helps keep me focused on the word of God. Can't wait to read her next book and see how her and Frank's relationship develops.

Mama B is the epitome of the mother of the church, the grandmother we all had. I love her character and the manner the story is written. I am learning about increasing my faith through this series. Keep Mama B coming!

Reading a Mama B novel is like sitting down with your grandmother. She's vivacious, witty, and full of wisdom. She's no push over - but she cares more about following Gods will than her own. So happy my fellow Christian Book Lover turned me on to Mama B!!

A real page turner! I can't wait to see what's next for Mama B and her family and Frank.
