Synopsis

Emma Bailey is thirty years old and single. No problem for her, but a point of round-the-clock contention for her mother, her family, and too many of her friends. In Jamie Lynn Braziel’s Declaring Spinsterhood, the terminal illness known as “old maid” is explored from every angle, and the result is a compassionate, compelling, and wickedly funny novel. Emma may stand up before all and declare her intention to never marry, but what about that little place in her heart reserved for Brian Davis? Sure, Brian’s seeing someone, and Emma is not a vixen who breaks up relationships, but would it be so terrible if Brian returned the interest? Rather than bide her time, Emma dates…and dates. Some of the men are charming, others less so. With her vow of spinsterhood more a noose than a friend, Emma musters her courage and moves on. That is, until the unforeseen throws up the biggest obstacle of her life: love.

Goodreads review by Linda Rogers on September 02, 2018

I really enjoyed reading this book. It is an easy, summer read but one that has enough twist and turns to make it fun and interesting. I agree that falling in love with your best friend is what leads to true happiness in marriage. I say this after being married to my friend for fifty-six years and s......more
