Wearing My Halo Tilted

This my first Stephanie Perry Moore book and overall I am pleased. When title character Shari McCray is first introduced to us she seems like a woman that is being badly mistreated and overlooked by her husband. As the plot unfolds we learn that there is fault on both sides. In order for the marriage to work, they must both decide if the union is what they want and own up to their mistakes. The decision process proves to be the biggest storm yet to hit their marriage. This story talks about everything from the steps that lead to infidelity, to the aftermath, and everything in between. I was shocked and pleasantly surprised that a Christian author took on this story line yet still got the important message of trusting and depending on God across.

Shari Maddox was frustrated with her life as a stay-at-home mom and a wife. In her spare time, she wrote Christian fiction books and sometimes questioned her faith in God. She longed for the day that her husband would be more attentive to her, but it seemed her dream never came true. She constantly prayed that a change would happen in her life. Well, soon those prayers were answered with a call from her agent Tina. One of her books that she had published was about to become a stage play. Her agent told her that it would be a hit, and she was needed on the tour. When she finally got her husband's attention, he was not happy with her being gone for weeks at a time...especially when he found out that her favorite gospel singer was the star of the show. Bryce McCray was tall, handsome, and the answer to every woman's dream...and the man could sing! Dillion (Shari's husband) was not thrilled about this because he knows how much his wife is in love with Bryce. Shari feared that her relationship with God would soon be put to the test. Will she be able to hear the Lord telling her the right thing, or will she follow her heart and risk her husband and children? In Wearing My Halo Tilted, Stephanie Perry Moore did a good job making sure you knew that God was always in control. You often question your own walk in the Lord when reading this book. In the beginning it dragged a little, but if you keep reading after the first chapter the book gets more and more interesting. You could visualize what each character of the book was going through, and when the characters would pray. It made you open your heart and mind a little more, and pray along with them. I thought the author completed her task with this book, because it was a true test of faith and how the characters got through the difficult times. Reviewed by Jackie for Urban Reviews
