Longing to Belong (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798511252353)

Love at first sight is possible but as the saying goes, "Buyer be ware!" This Southern romance between the young city-boy preacher and the luscious fiery redhead is filled with down-home humor and drama. Jim Melton is as uncomfortable as a rabbit in a tree. He soon discovers that the folks in rural South Carolina are friendly, nosy and clannish. True to life, the young pastor is assailed with accusations is threatened and has to endure more than his share of laughter. Sharon, the lovely redhead, doesn't mind putting people in their place. She's got the temper to go with the red hair and when they insult her or Jim she lets them have both barrels. Jim is just trying to fit into the community and to belong. He learns that love doesn't run any smoother than a Baptist Church. And then there is Harold Witson, a beer drinking good-o' boy who will stop at nothing to have Jim fired. The anger the backbiting and the distrust reach a boiling point. As they say, redheads are hotheads and somebody's head is going to roll. The question is whose?
