BOOK SPOTLIGHT: Be Careful What You Pray For

Be Careful What You Pray For
by Nicole S. Rouse

Be careful what you pray for is an old adage, but one that Maya Richards comes to discover is more than just a cliché.



Third grade teacher Maya Richards has been with her soulmate, Kenneth Green, for over ten years. She never doubted that Kenneth would one day ask for her hand in marriage, but on the eve of their anniversary, Maya asks a question that Kenneth struggles to answer.


When their relationship ends abruptly, Maya finds herself alone for the first time in thirteen years. She turns to family and friends to help deal with her heartbreak, but is left to heal on her own. Instead of seeing this time as an opportunity to get closer to God, feeling lost, Maya begs God to send her a new mate. Impatient and desperate, Maya begins a relationship with gym teacher Lloyd Bradford despite the many warning signs.


As she struggles to escape a dangerous situation, Maya learns that the relationship that matters most in life is the one that she has with Christ. Will Maya have the strength to break away from Lloyd’s tight reigns, or will she trust God and allow Him to restore peace in her life?
