A March Bride
A March Bride is the fourth in the "Year of Weddings" novella series. It's a cute story and a good addition to the series. When I started the story, I felt like there was some back story that I was missing. I was right. This novella is the continuation of Susanna and Nate's story from the book, Once Upon a Prince. I didn't end up feeling like I was missing anything too important, so I don't think it is necessary to read the book before this one. Although, I am curios now to see how Nate and Susanna fell in love. This short story deals with a lot of issues. What defines us and what is our true calling? Susanna finds out that in order to marry Nate she must give up her US citizenship. While I did understand her initial freak out over the issue, I thought she over reacted a little bit. But then, I guess cold feet can do that to a person. I thought Nate's solution was very heart warming and a real confirmation of his commitment to the relationship.
My only complaint with the story was I did think it was a bit heavy on the preaching. But, I think that is just my personal preference when I read Christian literature. I like my stories a bit more toned down. Overall, it's an enjoyable read and one I do recommend.
