| Andy McBride is a Mormon bachelor who is in love with Louisa Martin, a fellow medical student. They both come from two different cultures, one whose religion even speaks of polygamy. While they fall in love, they question if they can share a life together when their traditions are different. Andy likes to keep in touch with his family. In fact he would rather have a computer than a television. That is his link to medical updates, news, and more importantly the best way to keep in touch with friends and family. After graduation nothing would please him more than to be with Louisa, but they go their separate ways. Separation or not, Louisa lives in his mind. He wants her to be in his life regardless of their different customs or what family might say. Andy is willing to face any sacrifice to have Louisa in her life and when the opportunity again arises to see her again, he can no longer hold back his feelings. He pops the question to Louisa, hoping that her love will be enough for them to face any obstacle they may face in life.
Don't You Marry the Mormon Boys is a story, with a cast of characters that face many obstacles, emit much love, and learn about the different beliefs that can either destroy a family or make their love stronger. I believe Janet Kay Jensen has written a great eye-opener book good in many ways. I liked the part where marriage is spoken as being a partnership. She sketches heartwarming, realistic people who share different cultures, dissimilar lifestyles, but who all in the end work to have their own unforgettable love that shines. Andy and Louisa are not only refreshing, but an engaging couple that makes this story wonderful as they work through their difficulties. There were times I could almost see the expressions on their face and feel their emotions. Ms. Jensen creates a background that puts the reader right in the center of everything, in this splendid read.
