Book Review: Wedded Bliss?


Wedded Bliss?

Reviewed by Ane Mulligan

Susan Downs, Kristy Dykes, Sally Laity and Carrie Turansky serve up four poignant tales of Wedded Bliss? As four couples' silver anniversaries approach, they wonder: when had their love changed? Where did they grow apart? More importantly, can they find that love again?

Facing situations that unfortunately happen in life, each couple manages by seeking God, to get back on the right footing. The well written stories are touching, occasionally humorous, but always thought provoking.

I enjoyed this book, comprised of four novellas, thoroughly and look forward to reading more by these talented authors.

  1. I have read one of the four stories in Wedded Bliss and found it highly relevant to contemporary lifestyles.I found the story by Carrie Turansky pleasant & optimistic.

    However, I am wondering whether the stories contained in this collection are overly predictable because they are written from a "christian faith conquers all" world view. In other words, are they modern fairy tales with "happily ever after" the only possible outcome? I will have to read the rest of the stories in order to answer this question.
