======
This was an interesting read as Foster tackles the world of computer dating. As Mary mentors a group of teenagers, she tries to teach them lessons about life. However, she then turns the tables and the young women teach her a few things. Mary is unhappy with her single status, so she goes online to find a date.
Moor is homesick for his beloved Africa. His grandmother and his newfound American friends urge him to find a woman. Unbeknownst to Moor, his friends take heart about his situation and sign him up for a computer dating service. His experiences with the dating service are interesting and comical.
Puddin\u2019 is unhappy with her marriage. Knowing her husband is being unfaithful, she takes revenge by finding a job against her spouse\u2019s wishes. She takes her new position as a computer dating matchmaker seriously, as she attempts to find dates for her \u201cchildren.\u201d She feels close to the young people who are seeking love and she does everything within her power to ensure a perfect match.
As these characters interact with one another, you\u2019ll learn a lesson or two about romantic love, as well as God\u2019s love for His children. You\u2019ll also discover that things don\u2019t always appear as they seem.
