Manila Marriage App

By Jan Elder

Description:

It all began as a lark. Shay Callahan’s life was just fine, thank you, but when the seemingly misogynistic missionary, Timothy Flynn, places an advertisement for a wife in a Christian magazine, she decides to give it a whirl and sends in the five-page application. Why not? After all, she’s not currently seeing anyone, and this man truly needs to be taught a lesson.

Finding out she’s Dr. Flynn’s pick of the litter, Shay hops on a plane and flies to The Philippines. The strategy is to jet in, enjoy an exciting two-week vacation, and jet out again, all at his expense. Instead, her plan backfires. The handsome missionary man is not what he seems, and the foreign land has far more to offer than she could imagine.

Embark on a tropical adventure with Shay that challenges everything she believes.

Book Takeaway:

When God calls, listen up. He has something wonderful in store for you!

Why the author wrote this book:

My single (and slightly quirky) brother has been a missionary in the Philippines for 30 years. He has always said he's too busy to date and wouldn't it be nice if he could just send out a marriage application? It would save a lot of time and he could choose the best applicant before he had to meet anyone. And thus. the idea was planted.
