Ain't No Valley
by Sharon Ewell Foster

Bethany House


Naomi closed her eyes and pictured it all--she was poised, ready to spin the 'Wheel of Fortune' . . . This was her big chance!


Anthony looks out over his world from a skyscraper in San Francisco’s fast-paced financial district. But he takes a tumble that leaves him lost in the valley, his only guide a star-shaped-sunshades-wearing 60s musician. Meanwhile, Naomi, a Baltimore dentist, feels trapped in her own success. A spin on the Wheel of Fortune tosses Naomi up on a California beach—not to the retreat she longs for, but face to face with strange blue-eyed, blonde-haired Ruthie, a tie-dye wearing reject who won’t leave Naomi alone.

Inspired by the Book of Ruth and other biblical wedding stories, this modern-day parable with its outrageous cast of characters will make you laugh until you cry, then cry until you laugh again.

Best-selling, award-winning author Sharon Ewell Foster invites you to join Naomi and Anthony as they find themselves entangled in a wedding party that includes some reluctant sistah-girl bridesmaids. 

Get ready to take your seat amid a bus-load of unlikelies from as far away as Jacks Creek, North Carolina, Washington DC, and even the tiny kingdom of Lesotho in southern Africa.

"Sharon Foster's writing just keeps getting better and better! In Ain't No Valley, her characters practically leap off the page--deeper, funnier, more heart, more soul than when we met them before in previous books. I'm breathless!"

--Marina L. Woods, Editor-In-Chief and Founder, The GOOD GIRL Book Club™

Ain’t No Valley is the third installment in Foster’s series, which includes Ain’t No River and Ain’t No Mountain, both of which I enjoyed immensely. It is, perhaps, the last as she invites characters from each of the previous works to the wedding of Mary and Moor (Ain’t No Mountain) in sunny California. The sojourn is one of comedic mishaps and divine providence, loosely based on Jesus’ parable of the wedding banquet (Matthew 22) and the book of Ruth.
