For Sure and Certain I Do NOT Love Henry Yoder

Bys: Spredemann, Jennifer and Gabriel, Brandi

ELLIE

Henry Yoder has been a thorn in my flesh since fourth grade. I can't stand him.

No matter that:

he's my brother's best friend

all the young women in our community swoon every time he's on the hockey pond

he has mesmerizing eyes a girl could get lost in. (Oh no, did I admit that out loud?) Scratch that.

he relentlessly pursues me no matter how many times I turn him down.

Henry Yoder is bad news.

But when I accidentally ride home with him from a singing...and accidentally kiss him, I know I'm in big trouble.

HENRY

I admit that I tricked Ellie into a buggy ride. The bruises on my back to prove it. Don't ask.

But, during the tumultuous evening, I kiss Ellie. And get this. She kisses me back. Jah, she said it was just a natural reaction, but my gut is telling me that deep down inside, she might like me just a smidgen. And it's that smidgen that gives me hope.

But apparently, I've committed some type of unforgivable sin in the past to make Ellie despise me. And I have no clue what it is. Elijah doesn't even know.

Eli's been my best friend since the beginning of time. Hockey teammates on the pond. We're thick as thieves. But now he's convinced I've done something to his sister and is breathing threats and flinging hockey pucks at my head.

All I know is I need forgiveness before I can make Ellie fall in love with me and we can ride off into the sunset together.

A sweet, swoony, fun, feisty Christian romantic comedy you won't want to put down
