Elegushi Beach: To Nigeria With Love
Lorna Sealy knows things have to change in her life. Lorna has always been a good, church-going girl. She is happy enough as a single mother and a nurse at a great hospital. She has friends and keeps busy. But she is lonely. Meeting men online and chatting with them on messenger is getting her nowhere. Ready to delete her account, she decides to read one last message. It pulls her in, and she becomes involved with a Nigerian man. Then her friend introduces her to another Nigerian man, and she is also drawn to him. Soon, Lorna finds herself caught in a love triangle of international proportions. Despite worries and warnings, she knows what she has to do—fly to Nigeria and meet the two men who have both captured her heart. Thomas (aka Shola) is the man who encourages her to live out all her romantic fantasies regardless of what God, or man, might think. She finds herself doing things she had never dreamed. But who is he, really? Ife is the man who shares her faith and challenges her to think of herself as a winner. Lorna hopes he can help her eradicate her sense of shame. Waiting across the Atlantic Ocean lies danger, as well as her destiny. When she is kidnapped, Lorna cries out to God. Can He ever forgive her? Will He send someone to rescue her?

A Wonderful Story of Self-discovery and Redemption
Being an editor isn't the same as being a reader. I edited this book chapter by chapter, and the edits were extensive--many, many punctuation errors, many of which I still didn't catch, so I'll be re-editing this book in it's entirety after I have finished this review. I did know, as I edited, that I had a special story here, but because of the way it was edited, in bits over a long process, I didn't get the true feeling of the book until I read it all the way through, as I have just done. I didn't give it five stars for its mechanics; I gave it five stars for its message. Read it! I'm sure you'll agree!
