 (RAW Rating: 4.5) - True Love Is Worth Waiting For, August 3, 2007
Julia Simone appeared to have everything a woman desired in life; she had a wonderful and loving family and a successful career and company. She was a single parent and her life revolved around making sure her daughter Shay had all the opportunities she deserved. After Shay is away in college and Julia has reached her goals with her career, she senses a void in her life and she doesn't know how to fill it.
Julia meets Rev. Reginald Pennington, a powerful up-and-coming minister. It is love at first sight when they meet, but neither realize it because they are not looking for love at this time, or so they think. Both have issues of forgiveness and reconciliation they must resolve before they can move their friendship to the next level. They manage to work together on these issues to both realize that they are indeed soul mates God has put together for a reason. Together they are a good team and with the family involved, they are strong enough to face all obstacles thrown at them.
Wanda B. Campbell has done a wonderful job with FIRST SUNDAY IN OCTOBER, her debut novel. She told a story of two people who had never experienced true love and how with forgiveness and reconciliation of past wrongs true love it is really worth waiting on. She pulled you into the lives of the characters and made you feel as though you knew them. I look forward to her next project.

EXCELLENT, REFRESHING, WELL DEVELOPED, March 20, 2007
THIS IS AN EXCELLENT FIRST OFFERING BY WANDA B. CAMPBELL. A ROMANCE NOVEL BASED UPON CHRISTIAN PRINCIPLES, IT IS CLEAN, THERE IS NO PROFANITY NOR EXPLICIT SEXUAL DESCRIPTIONS, NOR ETHICALLY QUESTIONABLE PLOTS. IT WAS A GOOD READ AND I ENJOYED IT THOROUGHLY. FOR THOSE WHO NEED A BREAK FROM THE SMUT THAT MOST ROMANCE NOVELIST PEDDLE TO THE PUBLIC, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND READING FIRST SUNDAY IN OCTOBER, AND KEEP YOUR EYE OUT FOR ADDITIONAL WRITINGS FROM THIS DYNAMIC YOUNG AUTHOR.
