Anna is
content with her life. She works as a kindergarten teacher for a local school,
and gives as much of her time as she can to her church. The new pastor at her
church has caused quite a stir among the single females, because not only is he
a single pastor, but he’s a handsome single pastor. Anna knows she doesn’t have
a shot with him. Or does she?
This short
story is meant as an introduction to the Parkside Community Church series. The
main characters from this story continue through all five books as secondary
characters and their characters are expanded on throughout the series. If you
don't enjoy short stories, this book may not be what you're looking for.
This is part
one of the Parkside Community Church series. Pastor Dan is already frustrated
with the lack of Christian volunteer spirit in the church. Then he finds Anna,
just before she burns her feet. Pastor Dan is in awe of Anna’s Christian spirit
and all that she has done for the children’s program. Dan shakes up the church
and while doing that he falls in love with Anna and her servants’ heart.
A Bride for
Pastor Dan is a cute, romantic story. The only thing I disappointed with was
the shortness of the book. But it is a great book and well written.

heart. But this has allowed her actions and responses to restricted by the
small minded eps of a few members of the church. After offering to help out in
the children’s room for a couple of weeks it slowly turns into 6 months with
not much help insight.
After a
chance run in with the new pastor that she has never met, Anna’s see’s hope for
the future of the church. Dan has become very overwhelmed by the church he has
taken on. He is disappointed in the congregations’ lack of a servant’s heart
until he meets Anna. It shows him there are good members in the church and he

This
beautiful book left me wanting more, so I give it 9 out of 10.
