"The freshest voice in Christian Fiction." - Delores Garland, Ladies of Light Bookclub "Like an artist with a paintbrush, Keleigh is talented at creating stark visual images through words. Her unique wit and uses of metaphors promises to make What You Won't Do For Love an enjoyable read."- Michelle Lindo-Rice "A touching story with language that makes you want to savor every word. Keleigh's work always makes you ask questions that don't have easy answers-starting with this title alone " - Michelle Stimpson Chapter 1 "A hard head makes a soft behind." That was the second to the last thing, Edward Price said to his only child, Eden. "So make wise choices using your heart, soul and mind." The last thing he said, as his lungs rattled and he struggled to breathe was, "Take care of people, especially your mother." Back then, those were two difficult tasks to place on Eden's fifteen year old shoulders, and eighteen years later, she was still struggling to comply. Now, Eden stood, dressed in her favorite green scrubs in front of the vending machine, next to the triage station at New Mercies Hospital and contemplated her father's dying advice. She tapped her chipped fingernails against the glass. She had achieved part of her father's dying wish - she had become a nurse and lived to help people. But she seemed to fail in the second part, since she was behind in her payments to the run-down convalescent home her mother was living in. As for the second to the last thing... Should she get the Kit Kat or the Mars Bar? Tough choice. They both would give her a softer, bigger, behind which she didn't need. God had already given bountifully in that area. It's the reason Eden wore a medium scrub top and a large scrub bottom. Her blessing and her curse. Eden sighed, blew a stray strand of curly auburn hair out of her face and slid a dollar into the machine. She keyed in E6 - the granola bar. Happy daddy? But before the proper choice could fall, the emergency room doors glided open with a hiss and a young woman stumbled in with a semi-conscious older woman. "Help me " Before the young woman collapsed onto the yellow tile floor, she locked eyes with Eden and conveyed such a look of unknowable fear, Eden's palms began to sweat. Eden's body became a cauldron of tension. Her heart revved into overdrive, adrenaline flowed and her hunger forgotten as she scrambled to get a gurney. "The Pit is hopping tonight " Another nurse exclaimed in response to the unusual number of critical cases, they had seen that night.
