This Book Should Not Be A Secret
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
"Secrets of Gingerbread men" is a heartfelt, tear jerking trilogy of how profound God's role is in the life's of the people portrayed in the stories. It is stories about family, faith and love told with such vivid emotion that you feel as if you know each character in the story personally. The first story deals with a family of brothers that must face the impending death of one of them. The second story is about a marriage that stood the test of time filled with issues that might have destroyed any other marriage if they hadn't let God be a major force in their life. The last story is about a renewal of faith, when a young man realizes that he can no longer live in the current lifestyle he presently has and needs God back in his life in order to overcome accusations of involvement in a murder. Each story different, yet each story the same. "Secrets of Gingerbread Men" was a delightful and refreshing read that everyone that reads it will definitely enjoy.

I'm hard to please. Period. But this book made me read and read and read! I like Taylor's stuff. A believer myself, I had my doubts about Christian fiction. But this lady has her eye on the prize. Who says Christian fiction has to stay "in the closet"? The real things real people go through are the same things God can fix. Each of these stories touched area of life that I've experienced although my favorite was The Marriage Bed. Check it out.
A Sure Fire Hit!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
From the moment I picked up the galley I knew it would be something special. Each scene in all three short stories are expertly laid out in vivid detail. The characters and situations were believable and not only did the author make me care about the characters, she had me turning pages to find out what would happen next. I know the buzz has already started. I told two friends and they told their book club. Not just another girlfriend book, this author's writing is something spirtually enlightening. Get a glass of lemonaid and sit out in the shade with this one, you'll want to ingest every word!
Do You Know The Secret?
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
Witty. Poignant. Awe Inspiring. Every adult man and woman should read this book regardless of race. Taylor casts brilliant new light on some age-old topics. And the best part about it is you get three books in one! Four estranged brothers learn to love when one is diagnosed with AIDS in Hand Me Downs. This touching story hammers out men's issues and fears. Secrets' second novella titled The Marriage Bed, newly weds Steve and Camille live out the words of an unusual prayer rendered over their bed! This one really made me think. And finally, a systems analyst and consultant with an eye for the ladies lands in the middle of a murder investigation and an internet scandal that threatens to keep him from the love he really wants in Gingerbread Men. Well written and surprising. Pure genius behind the pen.
