Publisher Description
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.

"I really enjoyed this book. It was a quick entertaining read and I just couldn't put it down! There are times where it is quite obvious that this is the authors first work, such as when the words don't quite flow together, but overall I was very impressed with this book and I hope that this is not the last we hear of this author."

" A pretty cute fairy tale. "
— Mary, 2/10/2014 -
" What a great little love story. "
— Karen, 1/19/2014 -
" There were a couple of surprises in this book. But the rest was as predictable as if I had written it myself. "
— Jac, 1/14/2014 -
" This book gets a giant eh. It was on the free table at work, so I can't complain too much, but the characters are broad and the plot is telegraphed in such a way that there are no surprises in the story. It's not a painful read, but it's not a good one, either. "
— Arielle, 1/12/2014 -
" Easy read! Great book to take to the beach! "
— Tammy, 1/2/2014 -
" I really, really hope this was something I got for free on on the cheap for my Kindle. I'll never get those 2 hours back, though. "
— Christy, 12/12/2013 -
" Not a bad book, but nothing that stands out and makes you feel like you have to recommend it to a friend. "
— Valerie, 12/1/2013 -
" Silly, predictable plot paired with mediocre writing, but an easy read. I read this book in about two hours. It wasn't the greatest. "
— Kacey, 10/18/2013 -
" This typical christian romance was drenched in cheese. With that said, I absolutely loved it! The ending had some shock, and seriously caught me off guard. I did not see her date going the way it did. (Don't want to ruin the ending.) "
— Libby, 10/12/2013 -
" Laughed out loud. A little romance, a little suspense, a happy ending - this book has it all "
— Rebecca, 9/30/2013 -
" I really liked this book I read all but 2 chapters on my flight from San Diego to Dallas. It was just a great story. "
— Lauren, 8/29/2013 -
" Quick read. Not much to the story but would be a good beach read. "
— Heather, 8/28/2013 -
" Thoroughly predictable, but a fun, quick read. "
— Jessica, 4/23/2013 -
" Hmm...It was enjoyable, light reading until the last part of the book when the story suddenly took on a completely different tone - that part ruined it for me. Bizarre ending. "
— Connie, 4/20/2013 -
" An easy read with some powerful messages to those who feel it is wrong to be young and single. Life life the way you want to, make the decisions for you. "
— Mel623, 1/18/2013 -

— Lisa, 1/11/2013 -
