About
The Author
Keleigh Crigler Hadley is an
author, speaker, and teacher who is thankful God can use her messes for His
glory.
She has always loved
stories, and she believes the story of the Bible contains the biggest, the most
redemptive dose of grace humankind has ever, and will ever, experience. She is
the Christian Fiction author of the Preacher's Kids series, Revenge Inc., and
What You Won't Do for Love with Brown Girls Faith.
If she were to define
herself in one sentence, she would say, "I'm a girl who loves to see God
working." Keleigh writes
soul-stirring fiction, with real characters that stay with readers long after
they have closed the book, (or turned the e-reader off.) The only thing she loves more than writing is
reading, so contact her on social media and let her know what you're reading!
About The Book
Eden Price, an
unlucky-in-love nurse finds herself in the midst of a heated love triangle.
Globe-trotting missionary, Gabe Clark ignites her soul. Who doesn't want a man
with a connection to God? Hard-working,
Nemo Gates speaks to her heart. His past has caused a rift between him and God
and Eden wants to help him heal.
She ultimately chooses the man that makes her
passions come alive, butdid she make the right choice? Her husband stuns her
with a desperate plea; to prove her love for him in the most unthinkable way -
to help him die with dignity.
Excerpt
“There goes that Price girl
again.” Verdeen Washington exclaimed to her hard-of-hearing sister, Pearleen.
They rocked in unison, in the twilight air on their front porch.
Eden Price noted the
puzzlement in Verdeen’s booming voice as she steadily passed them by. Heck, the
whole neighborhood could hear it.
“She’s a strange bird, if I
ever saw one.” Pearleen looked over her thick glasses and pursed her wrinkled
lips.
“Good evening, Washington
sisters.”
Eden smiled, nodded and kept
her legs pumping. She knew they shook their gray wigs as she passed them, but
her jogging pace didn’t diminish and she kept on singing.
She knew she was a sight to
see and hear.
“Wishing, and hoping and
thinking and praying...
planning and dreaming each
night of his charms…”
That’s it, Dionne.
Eden sang the tune to Dionne
Warwick’s 1950’s classic song. The lyrics had been stuck on repeat in her head
all day and the only way to get a song out, is to sing it. So in between
breaths, she belted out the infectious tune.
So Dionne, is this the
formula for catching a man?
The cushion in her Nike
trainers flattened and rebounded as she reduced her pace from a slow jog to a
brisk walk. She was two blocks from home and needed to start her cool down.
“...do the things he likes
to do… wear your hair just for him… 'cause you won’t get him,
thinking,
and praying,
and wishing,
and hoping...”
Her worn out sports bra
allowed too much jiggle and wiggle room for her girls. She could never hope to
get a good run in anymore wearing three year-old running shoes and a five
year-old bra, but budget constraints did not allow for such luxuries.
Eden adjusted ‘Ben and
Jerry’ again to the safe confines of her bra, before she was arrested for
exposing herself. Eden hunched over for a moment to catch her breath. Just a
few more feet to go. She righted herself, hit her corner, and turned at the
intersection of Third ave and 33rd place.
Three threes. The number
meant something to her father, God rest his soul. It was his favorite number
and one of the reasons he purchased a house on this block. But today, the
number three held relevance to Eden too.
This was her thirty-third
year of life, she was suffering from her third night of insomnia, and on March
third, in three days her life would change - “for better or worse.
