Product Description

I always wonder why am I the one who continually attracts the misfit man, the dog, if you will. At this point in my life and with all that I have to give, one nagging question remains: Why am I not in a committed relationship with a man who has more than just words to offer, but is a man of his word as well as most importantly a man of the WORD? … Everything in me wants a man like my Father in heaven told me I should have. Loving. Dedicated. Sincere. Masculine. A real MAN.

A man like …

The night I met Mark I had on my favorite designer dress appropriately accessorized with a newly acquired purse and matching shoes. My revealing short skirt, while very attractive, made me feel a little self-conscious in church, but I got over it faster than the several pairs of eyes that kept looking at it… After the conclusion of the new members’ class ….I heard a sound as though straight out of heaven….

"Excuse me, Miss," he said.

Tiptoeing like a graceful ballerina, I swirled around in slow motion. It was HIM. I hoped and prayed silently, "Please, Lord. Please, Lord. Don’t let me look as stupid as I feel."

With his hand outstretched, he introduced himself. "Hi. I’m Mark. Mark Hayes…."

4.0 out of 5 stars Being Born Again, September 8, 2004

By	The RAWSISTAZ Reviewers (RAWSISTAZ.com and BlackBookReviews.net) - See all my reviews

PLUM CRAZZZY is the fictional story of Monique Kennedy.  As a new creature in Christ, Monique attempts to depart from her old ways and walk down her newly found Christian path.  Along the way, she stumbles over obstacles that she considers were a test of evil by the devil.
 
As a divorced mother of two children, Monique struggles to balance her family responsibilities and employment obligations while still searching for "Mr. Right," whom she feels will complete her.  Instead of leaning on God's will and trusting that He will provide, Monique tempts fate by seeking out male companionship.  As a result, she keeps on getting what she has always gotten - nothing.

When a pair of married friends introduce Monique to Frank, he seems too good to be true.  Monique feels that at any moment someone could pinch her and wake her up out of her living fantasy because Frank is so distinctively different from anyone she has dated.  In her blossoming relationship with Frank, will Monique learn to apply her Christian values?  During the course of her Christian journey, we see Monique mature in her relationship with God, yet will she be able to ask for forgiveness for her past transgressions and then walk forward into the realm of happiness?

All in all, PLUM CRAZZZY is a very well written example of Christian literature. The reader is taken on a journey of someone who is new within the body of Christ. The book portrays the trials and tribulations that Monique must endure and ultimately tells of spiritual growth. This tale is realistic because it addresses every day  issues that a Christian may face. I offer kudos to Monique Anderson for penning an interesting story and look forward to more from this author.

5.0 out of 5 stars GREAT ANNOINTED READ, July 3, 2005

By	Ashanti Mcgrew "book junkie" (Dallas, Texas USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This book breaks it down to the brake pads, it is brutally honest about relationships we have with ourselves and the relationships we think we want with men. I love this book and highly recommend it.
