Buy a Watch, Get a Wife!

Rachel Brown is not just any ordinary Louisiana girl. She soon grew out of her small hometown and set out to make her mark in the world. Today, Rachel is an elementary school hearing impaired teacher, a tutor, a jewelry salesgirl, president of her sorority chapter, Sunday school teacher, and wears many other hats. She loves traveling, the arts, and scrap booking. This book is a journey through the life and times of Rachel, and is surely going to touch and inspire you in ways only a southern girl can. It is an account of the hard times growing up, the silly adventures in college, a surprise free wedding, and the sad but eventually joyous events during the deployment of her husband Jon to Iraq. Her obstacles are relatable and her love story is equally motivating. Through it all, she finds that the emotional experience of knowing her husband is away at war proves to be her biggest fear as well as her greatest accomplishment. Her view of the world, of love, and of faith have changed; all before the age of twenty-four.
