Publisher's summary
The man might be the head of the family, but the woman is definitely the head of the house. Pastor Margie has been doing just fine running her house, as well as the house of the Lord, New Day Temple of Faith, all by her lonesome. As a matter of fact, her motto has been “I can do better all by myself”.
Well, certain members of the congregation beg to differ. Some of them have been nagging at Margie for so long about finding a help mate that she just might be crazy enough to give it a try. Once her congregation learns the method in which she goes about seeking a man for the house, they might worry for her sanity. After all, a woman of the cloth would have to be certifiably nuts to agree to go on a reality dating show in order to find a husband.
Margie assures her members she will be just fine because the Lord will guide her. That may be so, but a former member comes across the miles to offer her help as well. Usually the voice of reason who can speak truth and sense into any scenario, even Mother Doreen might not be able to handle this situation.
As Margie and Doreen navigate the pitfalls of reality television, will the voices of the producers, production team, and not to mention the men - some of whom aren't even saved - drown out the voice of God?

Venus Johnston has a great job and a long-term, live-in boyfriend who happens to be a drop-dead gorgeous doctor. She also has a weekly beauty-parlor date to keep her long, nappy hair slick and straight. But the tedious hours and harsh chemicals in the salon have long grated on Venus. One frustrating day, she trades in the long hair for a dramatically short, natural cut and sends her commitment-balking boyfriend packing. It's a bold declaration of independence and one that has effects she never could have imagined.

Excellent Read
The story was great. I enjoyed the story line very much and loved the moments of clarity in the scriptures. The narrator was not my favorite but it was tolerable.

Horrible narrator!
This narrator read as if she were running a speed reading marathon! The story line may have been ok but I couldn’t get through this reader! Couldn’t separate the characters…they blended together as one voice.

Narrator stinks..
I listen to the book with an angry face.. hahahahahahahaha.. no .. I’m joking .. but this narrator could not pronounced the words correctly… and it kept bothering me.. I didn’t think I was reading a book by e.n. Joy because of this corny voice.
Not her fault but just mot a good match to make the story “pop”.. like the authors other books.
