Author Description

"God wants us to have our heart's desire, but if we don't know what that is, how can we expect Him to give it to us? Creating a list will help us decide which qualities we really want in a husband. I believe 'Perfectly Matched' will work for us. I know it's going to work for me." With this argument, Eva Rose convinces her single women's group to test an idea that promises to help them find the perfect mate. During the creation of her list, each woman is inspired to re-evaluate her attitude toward the opposite sex. When the least likely candidate for marriage turns out to be the project's first success, hope sparks in the hearts of the others-except for jaded, independent Laura, who insists that the man on her list doesn't exist. Sally Lane was born in Joliet, Illinois but moved to Harrison, Arkansas as a single mom in 1975. She is a partner in a real estate company and enjoys writing in her spare time. A List and a Promise is her first novel. Sally shares wisdom learned before marrying the man on her list through the fictitious characters in the story.
