Resolutions Gone Amuck

Have you ever made New Year's resolutions for your own detriment? Aisha Ford's Christian fiction novel, FLIPPIN' THE SCRIPT, chronicles the exploits of a young woman who does just that-she makes a resolution that could ruin her life. Sabrina Bradley, production assistant for the Daily Dose, the Midwest's hottest daytime talk show needs a well do makeover. Her boss-Daily Dose host, Darci Oliver has changed Sabrina's job responsibilities from supporting the producers to running personal errands for her. If Sabrina didn't have to pick up Darci's laundry, call Darci's caterer, rake the leaves out of Darci's yard and give Darci better show ideas, then Sabrina could make her much needed hair appointments, attend bible study, hock her engagement ring and do her real job.

She doesn't have the time to do any of it, not even time to build a new relationship with the Daily Dose producer, Avery Benjamin. But Sabrina shouldn't get her hopes up for Avery anyway, since Darci is his ex-girlfriend.

Then a window of opportunity opens for Sabrina. Darci and the producers of the show ask her to join their normally closed production meeting. When she's asked to produce a segment on whether people keep their New Year's resolutions, she jumps at the chance. There's only one hitch. To win her promotion, she has to keep all her resolutions---one of which is not falling in love. If she doesn't comply, not only will she lose the promotion; she will lose her job.

Sabrina needs her faith more than ever to make the right decision and stay focused. Yet, Avery's friendship grows stronger every day. His commitment to God, his job and to Sabrina makes him more irresistible and worth the sacrifice. Will she keep all her resolutions? Will she miss God's message for her life in the process?

Aisha builds a compelling novel that exposes us to the life of contemporary single and married Christians. We see how they must juggle their faith with their own personal and professional aspirations. We also see what God has to say about true romance and faith. We learn how to live in this world and all the while live above it. We learn how to love and sacrifice.
