No Easy Solution

Rate this book
Another uplifting Christian novel series from the author of the Sycamore P.D. Series. Crowley County Series Join the people of Crowleyville as they face the challenges of small town life while struggling to welcome an influx of newcomers. No Easy Solution - First in the Series Gil Turner is overeducated and under experienced to take the position as pastor of First Baptist Church as well as being a city slicker. Shortly after he arrives, he discovers that the last pastor fought to close the bars and was forced to leave . . . and that the church has been about to split for several years. Jo Early is the reluctant owner of a heavily mortgaged bar in town, which she inherited along with her fourteen-year-old sister when her parents died two years ago. Now, Gil and Jo are forced to join in a struggle against someone who is threatening them both. Can two so different persons ever be more than friends, especially when Gil's zany mother and her equally zany twin sister come to 'help' them out?

NO. EASY SOLUTION
Gil pulling a trailer and a vehicle behind was not enjoyable,and curvy roads added to the discomfort When a sheriff came up and asking him for ID, and why he was on this road. Giving him the stern warning he better not be a trouble maker like the last pastor was. Pulling into town a board telling Turner to go home, and in the driveway people standing with picket signs.
All saying the same thing, wondering what he had gotten into.
Jo working at a bar and guardian of her sister Carla. Asking why she wasn’t married, as she was thirty years old. Good question, right guy hadn’t come along, and friends married and divorced. A nightmare from seven years ago, comes back for Jo. No one knew where he had taken her, would they find her in time. Good story, and of how the people with Jo’s help gave the preacher a chance.
