Why oh Why do I read these things? I started reading Christian romances at work when I was bored and there was nothing else to read. But then I started reading them for fun, at home. Most of them are terribly written. Yet I keep going back, like a bad boyfriend. Admittedly, the only “bad” thing about these novels is the writing. There is no language, love scenes, even kissing is really rare, and often “chaste”. Maybe that’s why they call to me. I’m not sure. But the last one of these I read really takes the cake.

There were more holes in A Ring and a Promise than a connect 4 board. (Stewart came up with that one, I just didn’t want to say Swiss cheese). But I won’t bore you with them. I thought I had read some of her (Lois Richer’s) books before, so I googled her. I found her website where she asked for feed back, so I sent her an email. I made a few references to the plot gaps, or gaping holes if you like. I wonder if I’ll get an email back. So If you’re wondering, A Ring and a Promise, isn’t worth the time it takes to read it.

I agree, the christian romance novels are easy to get into because they are a smooth sail which is good every now and then. Have you read any more Louis?

No. I’m going off Christian romances, cold turkey. I’ve said that before.
