Ain’t No Mountain follows Sharon Elwell Foster’s award winning, “Ain’t No River,” this time spinning us a modern fairytale that is at once fun and serious.
Urban Princess Mary is single and not in the least bit satisfied. As she searches for – well – herself – and an elusive inner beauty, she suffers through nosey relatives, questionable dates, and too much long winded advice. But, with the help of her god-mother (who struggles with a marriage that is wearing thin and wearing her out) Mary just might find the truth she seeks and maybe, just maybe, love to last a life time.
Mary’s quest is filled with real life situations and a journey not unlike ours. The author’s writing has us crying, laughing, and cheering as Mary tangos with life events. But, always the truth of God’s love permeates through and we’re left with a heart filled with hope. Best of all the author makes us laugh.
If you’re looking for an excellent story on 30-something single Christian love, pick up a copy of the culture, humor, friendship, and faith filled Ain’t No Mountain and join Mary on her venture.
Sharon Elwell Foster earns the Reviewers Choice Award.
