I am first intrigued by the title
and it keeps me wondering why is it titled Mocked by Faith? Is this a pro-faith
or anti-faith book?

At first glance, I would never have
read this book, but when I open it and started reading, I find myself engross
in the story and I read every word in it.
This book is masterpiece of Michele
Richard and is a story about alexia, who taught she’s a failure in her family
when at the age of 18, she still doesn’t find a fiancé when other girls in
town, even her best friends Madison and Ginger are betrothed at the age of 16.
Everything changes when a couple
from England, Mr. and Mrs. MacNear came and ask her parents for her, they
agreed but Alexia became flabbergasted when she knew that Justin (groom-to-be)
disobeyed their rules and tried to find love outside their community and he’s
currently in a revirgining retreat. And they’re married not having the chance
to see each other first, and just then they realize that the very thing they’re
searching for is the person they’re marrying.
This book is definitely a love
story with emphasis on faith, husband and wife, family and friends.
The plot is unique, I just don’t
know if there’s really a so called community like this that exist or just a
product of the author’s wide imagination.
Mrs. Richard writes fluently making
her work engaging and a fast-read. I hadn’t put this book down since reading
it. I love how she presents the characters and develops them. I appreciate the
proper timing when and adversaries come, and the right twist and turns.
I’m just a lil bit stunned at the
end, when the story ends, or the right term, I guess, is another chapter or
series should start. It’s a cliff-hanger..:O
I must admit though, that I enjoyed
reading the marriage theme. For it opened up a lot of things for me, like what
it would be like and the consequential responsibilities.
I recommend this book to everyone
who have lost a child, having family problems, and enjoyed reading books of
true love and base on faith. Enjoy!
I Totally Agree.. Michele Richard is a wonderful and intriguing Author.....
