I picked this book up because of the title, Georgia, where I have lived most of my life. It should have been labeled as Christian literature, in which case I would not have read it. However, with a little bit of editing, changing church to synagogue, minister to rabbi, pants to skirts, dresses and modest clothing and descriptive hairstyles to sheitels, the book could have been published by Keter. It is nice to read a book in which the characters are not engaging in premarital sex.
Quick easy read of 4 different stories in this novella. Each story is on average 115 pages long. Cute stories but not enough development of the stories. How do you meet, get to know someone and get married all within the span of 115 pages?
Easy, quick reading. Four short novels in one volume, each with a different author. Each novella is just over 100 pages long with a Christian-based romance theme. Just simply a fun read.
