Trio Reviews
For anyone who has ever stood on the threshold of a huge decision, and wished for the guts to do something different, Melissa Brayden’s Marry Me is a book you’ll appreciate. I think very few women in Allison’s position would have an easy time navigating the events as they unfold in this story, and Melissa Brayden delves deep into Ally's heart every step of the way. More than just questioning if her fiance is “the right one”, the sensations and emotions Allison is experiencing when she spends time with Megan has her questioning her sexuality. Allison’s story, as she faces the challenges involved in postponing her marriage, starting a romance with Megan, and dealing with the fallout from her family, is quite a journey! While I might not agree with some of Allison’s actions and decisions, and indeed she faces criticism and ostracization from those she loves, she finds the courage to stay the course. This is a marvelous piece of writing by Melissa Brayden, to figure out a way for Ally to listen to her heart, struggle through the fallout, and carve out an honest and authentic life as she remains true to herself. Well done!
