A Few Good Men #2

The Start of a Good Thing

Rate this book
Jonathan Lawrence knows better than to sit up in church and lust over the women on the praise dance team, but apparently Jonathan’s body has forgotten that he is a minister. It’s clearly past time for him to start searching for a wife. He decides to employ technology and finds some promising prospects. Still, he wonders how he will concentrate on finding his soulmate when he’s surrounded by marriages that appear to be falling apart? When an unwelcomed assignment to visit the sick and shut-in members of New Vision Community Church leads him right to the doorstep of a woman with previously questionable morals, Jonathan finds himself wondering whether to run from her or look beyond her past and behold the new woman may be in Christ.

Bria Logan has many regrets, including how she first met Jonathan. She also loathes things she had no control over, like the person God picked to be her mother. Bria’s slow, painful recovery from a car accident lands her on the “home-visit” list of her new church, opening an avenue for her to experience God’s word in a personal setting. But will the ongoing tension with her mother prove too much for Bria to bear? And how long can Bria deny the attraction to this “church boy” who so diligently points her heart to the Father she adores more each day?

This light, inspirational romance by bestselling author Michelle Stimpson is the second the “A Few Good Men” series.

Loved it

Bria and Jonathan were so beautiful. Bria was a survivor and Jonathan was a man of God the combination between the two of them was wonderful to be a part of. If you want to read a great book I recommend this book.

The start of a good thing

This was a very good read. It's start out Rocky but in the end it was joyous to see Pastor Jonathan find love after all those messy dates. Lovely will recommend this book.

Started Rocky!

Jonathan & Brian got off to a Rocky start but ended on a bumpy road to happiness! I like a story that mixes things up and still holds my attention. I especially loved the fact that Bria's daily routine from her wheelchair allows a glimpse into her daily struggles. Challenges that most take for granted. Jonathan and Bria were funny separately and together! Loved it!!

Very uplifting!

A love story with a message! This is a wonderful development in Bria's life and after all the drama, we can see that there is a plan and things happen in the right moment. Enjoy!

The Start of a Good Thing

This is book number two and I love reading books about people of God. Life is full of choices but when you walk with God on your side you will always make it through.

Lovely story

This was a good book with a realistic story line. I could imagine all the characters and Bria was a strong young woman. Jonathan found a love doing what God told him to do which is the best way to find it.
