A Brush with Love

A January Wedding Story

De: Rachel Hauck

Narrado por: Amber Quick

Ginger Winters is a gifted hairstylist with scars no one can see. The last thing she expects from the New Year is a new chance at love.

Overcoming a childhood tragedy, Ginger emerges from the pain and trauma with a gift for bringing out the beauty in others. From the top big city salons to traveling the world as personal stylist to a country music sensation, success was almost enough to make Ginger forget she would never be one of the beautiful people.

Almost. Now that she's back home in Rosebud, Alabama, and running her own salon, the truth remains: Ginger is still that girl, forever on the outside looking in. But she needs her confidence this weekend. She’s the acclaimed “beauty-maker” for the Alabama society wedding of the decade.

When high-school crush Tom Wells Jr. also returns to town and shows up at her shop looking for a haircut, Ginger’s thinly veiled insecurities threaten to keep her locked away from love, Despite Tom’s best efforts, Ginger can’t forget how he disappeared on her twelve years ago and broke her heart. Can she ever trust him again?

When Tom challenges her to see her own beauty, Ginger must decide if she will remained chained to the past or move freely into a new, exciting future.

A Short Wonderful

Ginger and Tom are two of the most intelligent wounded romantic characters ever. The book is short but it is perfect in length. They don't do the stupid plot things, like: "No, no, no! I can't believe it will ever work out to happy ever after!" I get wary of that back and forth, striving to but failing to create a plot with tension. Rachel Hauck in this book reveals scarred people and how God's love can show them truth. The great news is these two find truth, embrace it and the reader is more than satisfied. The best news Tom shares with Ginger and the reader. "You are beautiful" ...scares and all!
