A Delightful Page Turner!

Stephanie Perry Moore is best known for her young adult Payton Skyy series. Lately, Moore has been writing novels for older readers. Her Christian ficion novel, A Lova Like No Otha opens rather dramatically with Zoe Clarke preparing for a day she has waited for all her life --- her wedding day. The day starts out gloomy and continues to spiral downward with Zoe being left at the altar as her fiance runs off with his pregant girlfriend. This heart-shattering experience becomes a "turning point" in Zoes life as her faith must face trial after trial.

In spite of the cruel manner in which her fiance leaves her, God opens the door for her ex-fiances best friend Chase Farr. Unlike her ex, Chase is a strong God-fearing man heading for the big time in the NFL. Chase has admired Zoe from afar and is ready for this opportunity to show her real love. As Zoe and Chase grow closer together, Zoes weaker spiritual walk begins to clash with Chases desire to stay pure until marriage. The conflict endangers the relationship, eventually forcing them to go their separate ways. Zoe learns a valuable lesson as she draws closer to the greatest lova of them all.

This was not an easy book to put down due to the outstanding character development. Stephanie Perry Moore does a great job hooking the reader into Zoes life from the beginning. Readers will find Zoes shattered dreams and struggling faith very relatable. At times her turmoil leaps off the pages inducing the reader to shout "Dont do that! or "Girl, put God first!" Another outstanding character in this book is Chase Farr. In most African American fiction, a man like Chase Farr is rarely included. The beauty of this mans faith especially as a successful African American athlete is quite refreshing!

The Best is Yet to Come!

This book is AWESOME! It is definitely a page-turner. This was the first book I read by Stephanine Perry Moore, and I was totally impressed! The book has so many "twists and turns"; its like a movie that keeps you on the edge of your seat! Zoe, the main character, is left at the altar at the beginning of this novel, and she thinks her life is over. Little does she know that the best is yet to come!! As she tries to get over her ex, she falls for Chase. . .but she has a problem with Chases pledge to remain celibate. In the end, Zoe finds that Jesus Christ is truly "A Love Like No Otha"; that if you trust in Him, he will give you the desires of your heart! I like the way Ms. Moore shows that women can also be aggressors; that it isnt always the man who "cant live without sex". "Gods way" is paramount in this book; and in the end, He reigns!! The literary world needs more Christian authors like Ms. Moore who "tell it like it is"!

A Love Like No Otha Book Review

Overall this book was simply average. The characters at times were too one dimensional and the authors writing style was utilitarian to say the least. Also, cliches were used often throughout the book and the literary concept of space and time was not intertwined with events in the story well.
Nevertheless, the romantic plot is captivating enough to satisfy any reader for the few hours it takes to read this book.
