The Isaac Project by Sarah Monzon

The Isaac Project is the author's debut novel and I can't wait to read more by this talented author. I thoroughly enjoyed this story and had a hard time putting it down. Rebecca caught her boyfriend in the arms of another woman and wisely broke off the relationship. She dearly loves the grandfather who raised her but he is gravely ill and would love to see her married. She gets an idea after reading the biblical story of Isaac and Rebecca and enlists her best friend Lisa to be her Elizer. She does find someone for Rebecca! I loved the character of Luke from the get go. I liked it that like Joseph he fled from his modern day version of Potifer's wife. Luke was a fine example of what God's love is for us. God loves us even when we are resistant to him. I got a little aggravated at Rebecca a couple of times when she held back things she should have told Luke.
