The third deligtfully undead novel in New York Times bestselling author Michele Bardsley's Broken Heart series. Not just anyone can visit Broken Heart, Oklahoma, especially since all the single moms—like me, Patsy Donahue—have been turned into vampires. I’m forever forty, but looking younger than my years, thanks to my new (un)lifestyle. And even thought most of my customers have skipped town, I still manage to keep my hair salon up and running because of the lycanthropes prowling around. They know how important good grooming is—especially a certain rogue shape-shifter who is as sexy as he is deadly. Now, if only I could put a leash on my wild teenage son. He’s up to his neck in danger. The stress would kill me if I wasn’t already dead. But my maternal instincts are sill alive and kicking, so no one better mess with my flesh and blood.

Yes, there are times when it’s appropriate to reason with your child, to patiently and eloquently explain why he or she needs to do as you ask. You might present convincing arguments like “Because it makes you strong”; “Because it will keep you safe”; “Because it’s good for you”; “Because it’s bad for you.” But there are times when the only thing that really makes sense is . . . “Because I said so!!” This book is a hilarious, honest romp through motherhood—the joys, the sleeplessness, the frazzled days, the unending carpooling, the in-house refereeing, the dieting (yeah, right), the worrying—and did we say, the joy? Here’s what some of that joy looks like—with excerpts straight from the book: • I tried to do the Buns of Steel video, but quickly realized that it wasn’t intended for people who have buns of pudding. • I felt like my head might explode. I kind of hoped it would so I could take a nice, peaceful ambulance ride out of there. • I was a little at a loss. I mean, those parenting books don’t tell you how to break up a fight over an imaginary friend. • Moms aren’t allowed to get sick more than one day a year. Single moms aren’t allowed to get sick ever. • Before you have children you can’t imagine yourself saying things like “Don’t put chocolate milk in your pants,” “Take the hot dog out of your nose,” or “Because I said so!” If you’re a mom-to-be or a mom in the trenches, you’ll love knowing that you’re not the only one out there who sometimes just figures it out as you go along—and sometimes can’t figure it out at all. But in the end, Dawn has these words of encouragement just for you: “Enjoy this time. Even when they make you crazy, these are the best days of your life.” And they really are, aren’t they?
Do you truly believe that you can do all things through Christ? Do you struggle with believing that you were created ON purpose and FOR a purpose? Do you battle negative thoughts and destructive self-talk? You are not alone. In Because He Said So Missy Washam shares proof, through scripture, that you are who God says you are. But knowing the truth is not enough. You must change the thoughts you think and the words you speak. (Proverbs 23:7 and 18:21) During this forty-day journey, Missy will guide you in this process by sharing her own experiences in overcoming these struggles. She will lead you to focus on His Word and challenge you to claim forty God-firmations, affirmations of who you are in Christ. Through this practice you will grow in the belief that you are worthy of all that He created you to be. When that happens, the strongholds and self-limiting beliefs that the enemy uses to separate you from God will begin to fade. Everything in your life will begin to change. Make no mistake about it...this book is not about thinking more of yourself - it's about thinking more of God. Because He Said So has the power to transform your life and can become the catalyst to cause a ripple effect of change in the lives of everyone you meet.
