“No Longer a Bridesmaid!”

A Memoir

By Terry Cato

Tell us about your current release.

“No Longer a Bridesmaid!” is a memoir that chronicles the seven years that I was single, celibate and believing God for a husband. During those seven years, I observed seven personality types–my own included–that can get in the way of progress toward the altar. I discuss this in the first part of the book and dig more into my personal process in part two of the book.

For as long as I can remember, I’ve always had a love of reading and writing and was the resident proof-reader for my family and friends.
