    About this ebook

    Single women struggle to find the right person to love for a lifetime. Their choices are often influence by a fairy-tale version of what love is, or what it is supposed to be. They read about so-called true love in books and see it portrayed in movies and television. For most, real life and fiction bear little resemblance to each other.

    Loved as Promised is author J. Ladd Johnson’s story of her search for love. Her beliefs about love led to poor decisions and the failure of her first marriage to a minister. Twenty-five years spent searching for love in the wilderness, on her terms, did not help her to fare any better in a choice of another mate. She was broken and neglected her relationship with God in search of love. Hard lessons essential to Johnson’s spiritual growth and well-being needed to be learned. She shares these insights into her journey in hopes you will find comfort in knowing you are not alone on your quest to find that right person to love for a lifetime.
