Never the Bride

A Novel

De: Rene Gutteridge, Cheryl McKay

Narrado por: Kirsten Potter

Since she was just a little girl, Jessie Stone has dreamed up hundreds of marriage proposals and fantasized about wedding dresses and falling in love. She’s been a bridesmaid nearly a dozen times, waved numerous couples off to sunny honey-moons, and shopped in more department stores for half-price fondue pots than she cares to remember.

But shopping for one key component in her own happily ever after hasn’t been as productive–a future husband. The man she thought she would marry cheated on her. The crush she has on her best friend Blake is at very best…well, crushing. And speed dating has only churned out memorable horror stories.

So when God shows up one day, in the flesh, and becomes a walking, talking part of her life, Jessie is skeptical. What will it take to convince her that the Almighty has a better plan than one she’s already cooked up in her journals?©2009 Rene Gutteridge and Cheryl McKay; (P)2009 Random House Audio

Reseñas de la Crítica

“What girl can’t identify with Never the Bride? This is a fabulously funny novel with deep truths embedded in its pages.” –Kristin Billerbeck, author of What a Girl Wants

“I admire writers who employ words to paint touchable pictures, likable characters, introducing us to instant friends who lead us to unexpected endings. That’s why I love Never The Bride.” –SQuire Rushnell, author of the When GOD Winks books

Great message wrapped in an entertaining story

I very much enjoyed the story. The main character was perfectly imperfect. The narrator's voice, however, did not match. Jesse's age needed the voice of a mature woman but this narrator sounded as if she was reading the top story of the evening news. A little too canned. However, the story took over and I was able to overlook it. I enjoyed the fun fiction with a "holy" twist. I categorize it as "Devine Comedy" ;)

Revelation Novel

I found this novel very revealing to the heart of God and the love and dreams He has for us. Anyone who desires to know how much God loves us should read this book....especially if you're getting frustrated waiting for your husband.

Never the Bride

Such a good, inspirational story, and very well read! I loved that it was such a complicated, yet enjoyable tale, and the whit really makes it that much more worth listening to.

Loved it sooooo much!

I absolutely loved this book. I am so tempted to listen to it over and ovre. I hope they do make a movie out of it. I loved it!!!

Pleasantly surprised

I really like the voice of the narrator, she does a great job of distinguishing the characters in the book. plus it was a pleasant voice so it was nice to listen to.

I loved the story, I felt I could associate a lot with Jessie's character. The story had me to the point of wanting to know what's going to happen next. I started listening to this as I now have a commute. So I actually looked forward to escaping for an hour or two.
