    About this ebook

    Where's My Love Story?

    It's your third wedding this year. You are livening up the dance floor with a stirring rendition of "YMCA." Suddenly, the moment comes that separates the crowd like black and white socks. The Slow Dance. This one's in a pair, this one's not in a pair.

    You are not in a pair. You thought you would be married much sooner, but it hasn't worked out that way. "This is not the life I imagined," you whisper as you eat your wedding cake.

    This book was written with you in mind. Kate Hurley doesn't offer a magic formula that will bring your spouse to you, nor does she ask you to be content with your "gift" of singleness. She gives you permission to grieve your unmet expectations while opening your heart and life to unforeseen possibilities.

    Includes a Group Study Guide

    The author is committed to giving twenty percent of her profits from this book to AIDchild (www.aidchild.org), an orphanage in Uganda for children living with AIDS, and iEmpathize (www.iempathize.org), an organization that fights to eradicate child exploitation.

      Honest and real. This book seems to be classified as a book for Christians, but I found it more to be a book for humans, single and shacked up.

      This is the first book about singles that doesn't just make you feel like it's ok that you're still waiting for your spouse, boyfriend, soulmate or whatever. This is a book about being ok with being single, about the good and the bad of a single status. It's empowering to feel like you're normal, not too picky, too unlovable, too crazy or 'too something' for being unwilling to settle. Sometimes it's not your fault, sometimes it's just how life works. And that's ok.
