Summary:
Previously titled Color Me Bad, New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Sharon Sala dishes up Count Your Blessings, a contemporary romance piled high with love, laughter, and plenty of heart in Blessings, Georgia!
As the respectable wife of the town preacher, Patty June Clymer never thought she’d have to worry about a cheating husband. But when things come to a head, Patty decides to take charge of her life by kicking her no-good husband out her house, and getting a total makeover at the popular local salon. With a new spiky black haircut and a new outlook on life, Patty goes from mousy and meek to living large and in charge, and fairly starts a revolution in the small town of Blessings, Georgia.
Review:
Count Your Blessings by Sharon Sala is a very charming novella that is set in a small southern town. The local beauty shop is the center of the action and it is where the preacher’s wife deals with her cheating husband and his mistress in a very public (and unexpected) way.
Patty June Clymer’s weekly hair appointment at The Curl up and Dye is anything but ordinary when she comes face to face with her husband’s mistress. Unfortunately small town gossip paints Patty June in an unflattering light after the rest of townspeople decide to take a closer look at their own relationships. Change is afoot for many of the people in the community when they come face to face some uncomfortable truths about their own lives.
Count Your Blessings is light-hearted and fun read that will leave readers very eager to read Sharon Sala’s novels set in Blessings, Georgia. The first full-length novel, The Curl Up and Dye is already available for purchase (you can read my review HERE), and the second installment, I’ll Stand by You, releases in early June.
