Jeremy Ferguson is caught between two worlds—the conservative, faith-based expectations of his Southern preacher father and his own ambitions to live the life of a model in New York City.Aura Vanderleigh is similarly trapped by her own battle for self-respect, her own family’s expectations, and her dreams of a better life. As a plus-size woman, she’s been indoctrinated with the belief that she doesn’t deserve love, let alone the love of a beautiful white man. She is surprised—and intrigued—when Jeremy shows up at her church one day. And fate has something wonderful in store: true love.When Jeremy returns home with Aura, neither is prepared for the backlash. Will Jeremy’s family be able to set aside their prejudices and accept their son’s choice for a mate? Can Aura’s family and friends learn to embrace her choice and believe that she deserves the love of such an extremely handsome and sexy man like Jeremy? Can they inspire compassion and tolerance in those who would tear them apart?

B.D. Anderson, (Brenda Diane) has loved to read and write romance stories all of her adult life. The Preacher’s Sonis her very first published novel, but will certainly not be her last! Outside of being an author, she is also an Associate Minister at her church. Brenda is married and the mother of two adult sons.
It was quite a struggle for Brenda to write what many church people would consider ‘worldly’ romance with an underlying Christian theme, but her desire was to reach people where they are at and not to necessarily ‘preach’ at them. Her book is aimed at an audience that does not necessarily know about God, and she hopes that her book will open the door for honest discussion. Her story has been warmly embraced by her church members and they have turned out to be some of her biggest fans. Her book will be used as a tool to open the door of communication in several Women’s Groups as they seek to minister to young adult ladies.
Brenda has received a wonderful review from Penn Book Reviews and has been featured on Alliance for Independent Authors website for her desire to help other new authors to have their works published.
She had dedicated a portion of the proceeds from her book to help new authors, as well giving a portion to her own church’s ministry. Brenda hopes to have the sequel to her book finished by the end of this year.
"Tens" list with author B.D. Anderson...
TEN THINGS I WOULD
CHANGE ABOUT HIGH SCHOOL IF I COULD GO BACK IN TIME:
1. I'd study
more and would prepare myself to go to college. ( When I was in high
school, I didn't know that college was an option if you had good grades.)
2. I'd be more
involved in high school activities. (I worked after school)
3. I would spend
more time with my grandparents and recorded the family history.
4. I would
attend my Junior prom.
5. I would make
more of an effort to interact with kids of other races. (It was the 70's and
there was a lot of separation and tension between the races then.
6. I would have
pursued my love of writing instead of focusing on a "sensible"
career.
7. I would try
to be more outgoing.
8. I wouldn't
worry so much about what people thought.
9. I would make
better friend choices.
10. I would have
enjoyed my youth instead of yearning for adulthood.
