Mother Teresa's Advice for Jilted Lovers is a hilarious, irreverent take on the darker side of spirituality. Every time Tara Holland thinks she's getting close to finally having her white wedding, the man who should be on his knee, giving her roses, winds up on his back, pushing up daisies. Needless to say, Tara's beginning to think she's cursed when it comes to men. Her best friend, Betsy, who's always there to put the pieces back together, convinces Tara she's the cause of each of her boyfriend's untimely exits to the other side. Could it be that Tara has that kind of psychic power? And is Betsy right that women all over the world would pay a pretty penny for it? What follows is a wild and humorous trek down the path of Tara's spiritual growth and ultimate awakening. But the road to enlightenment is no cakewalk. It's fraught with stacks of ill-gotten cash, death threats, and orange jumpsuits. **** "Donna Barker's dark humorous novel has a fresh, snarky voice that will leave readers laughing out loud and turning pages right until the end." Eileen Cook, author of With Malice
Autorenporträt
Donna Barker writes quirky women's fiction and rebel romance. Why rebel? Well, because 'proper' romance writers bristle at her heroines' paths to happily ever after. Honestly, why is okay for heroes to explore their options but when a heroine wants to make sure she's fallen for the right guy she's called... bad names? In her real life, Donna loves men, which may not be apparent in reading her creative writing. She's a volunteer firefighter with a pathological fear of spiders. She became a vegetarian in 1985 and only recently caved to her unholy love of bacon, which she now eats unapologetically. (Well, not quite true. Being Canadian, she has to say "sorry" for still calling herself a vegetarian and for being responsible for the deaths of so many delicious pigs.) Her debut novel, Mother Teresa's Advice for Jilted Lovers, was a 2014 Chanticleer first place category award-winner, taking home the coveted blue ribbon for best Mystery/ Suspense/ Thriller Romance.
