That's (Not Exactly) Amore (31 page)

6. Laini is lonely and ready to get married. She’s pretty and smart and not at all closed off. Why do you think it took so long for her to find the right guy?

7. Mark initially appears to be everything Laini’s looking for. Why do you think it takes so long for her to get the picture that he isn’t the one?

8. Joe’s family is morally iffy at best, and Laini has hesitations about him because of that. Is it fair to look at a person’s family and judge the potential for a relationship based on that?

9. Laini’s relationship with God grows as she returns to church and begins to fellowship each week. How important is it to a Christian’s spiritual growth to hook into a body of believers?

10. After years of looking for Mr. Right, what is it about Joe that convinces Laini he’s the man for her?
