Summary: Good Girls May Finish Last - But Happy!!
Review: Finally a book that embraces the girl who remained a virgin, didn't chase after men, took pride in her clothing withiout being slutty, did not "shack-up", in order to find a man! All my life, I have been called a Prude, geek, lonely-girl, and goodie-two-shoes, just because I "did the right thing", and I wanted a man to love me for who I was, and not want I could do for him sexully, or how I threw myself on him. And this book, showed that through the Bible, the Lord wants us to just that . . .and more.
No longer do I feel depressed, or have this urge to "have sex" in order to keep a man. A true, Christian man WILL WAIT!

Summary: I HAVE BEEN GOING ABOUT THIS LOVE THANG ALL WRONG!
Review: First off, I just want to praise the Lord for ordering the steps of this sister to write this timely book.It has been a loooong time coming,because He sees that His daughters are simply "banging there pretty little heads against the same wall".This book contains the real deal on how the Heavenly Father God wants us as His women to behave, walk and be treated by earthly men.There are times that I am reading this book and I just putit down because I need time to obtain the powerful thruth that is on these pages. As a woman who has given her life over to the Lord, I realized that a lot of the mistakes I had made in the past where relationships were concerned were because I thought my "worldly" ways were better than God's......I like God's way of dealing with matters of the heart much better. This book is not only about being irresistible to acquire a man, this book is about(and I will use Michelle's term here)becoming the Principles Woman that the Lord has created us to be from the very start,before we were even formed in the belly! Sisters in the Lord and the unsaved can really get blessed from this book.Please, get this book and find out what the Lord meant for you to be and HOW He meant for you to be treated too!Michelle.......YOU BETTA GO ,YOU FLY DIVA OF THE HOLY ONE!

Summary: You owe it to yourself to read this book!
Review: From the time I started reading this book to the time I finished, my attention was "arrested" by the power of the Holy Spirit/Anointing that rests on this author's work.The book, "Secrets of An Irresistible Woman", deals with timeless Principles that Christian women (single and married) should adhere to. One major point of interest for me was that she consistently used scripture to back-up each given Principle. I purchased this book unwittingly, as I'd never heard of the author . . . the title sounded interesting so I ordered it and hoped for the best. The book said "amen" to truths God has whispered to me over the years for instance, "The responsibility of the man is to love the woman; our response is submission" (Ephesians 5:22-33). This is so important because so many Christian women (myself included), have jumped headlong into relationships at the slightest bit of expressed interest from men to our own destruction. Men will pursue what they want; after all, that's their job . . . "He who finds a wife . . ." Ms. McKinney Hammond provides practical insight and suggestions along with a detailed Study that corresponds to each chapter of the book which I found particularly helpful. This book is an easy read . . . she speaks strictly sister-to-sister; as I read, I began to feel as if we were engaged in a conversation. This book is on my Christmas Gift List for all my single (and one of my married) friends. Single Christian Woman, you owe it to yourself to read this book! God Bless you!

Summary: CHANGED MY LIFE...HIGHLY RECOMMENDED...
Review: God knows when to show up...and when He does, He SHOWS OUT! This book was highly recommended to me for months, but I wasn't receptive to it at the time. When I did pick it up and read it, it was exactly what I needed to hear (maybe not WANTED to hear!) when I needed to hear it! Ms. McKinney-Hammond keeps it real and on the level; easily applicable and personal. From the first few pages she was all in my backyard, closet, bedroom, purse, etc. It is applicable to EVERY Christian woman...single/married, young/seasoned, daters/non-daters...THIS BOOK IS A WONDERFUL EXPERIENCE!!!!

Summary: This book was not just the bomb...it was the explosion!
Review: I highly recommend this book for any single woman who has ever had her heart broken, suffered disappointments in her dating relationships or is just baffled as to why men act the way they do. This book is a beacon of light for any single woman who is in the dark about dating and the relationship process. Michelle McKinney Hammond goes right to the source (God) and paints a bright and clear picture of God's design for the relationship. This book just oozes with wisdom and love and she delivers a powerful message of hope and encouragement in such a gentle, loving and sisterly way. I loved this book because it has changed my outlook on men, dating, and relationships and it has led me to the most important and fulfilling relationship that I could possibly have and that is my relationship with God. What I learned from reading this book is that...1. God is a jealous God and that He loves me and wants to be in a relationship with me (rather than the knuckleheads I've been dating) 2. Love never fails (God's love is a love that you can trust). 3. A donkey with always want a thoroughbred (a man of lesser quality will always desire a woman of quality but will not possess the ability to meet her needs, so why waste your time entertaining the dumb stuff...life is too short...have courage and never be afraid to stand on your convictions) 4. I am a virtuous woman (for my value is worth far more than rubies and I deserve to be approached and treated as such) 5. I am someone's missing rib (God has someone special looking for me with a missing rib, all I have to do is to continue to beautiful even long after he finds me.) 6. Trust God that he will give you the desires of your heart and in the meantime...live life like you already have the love of your life....because you do. Great book! It has changed my attitude about men, dating and love through the renewing of my mind. I am a new creature, my mistake of past are past away and behold all things which include my joys and my desires for my life and future are brand spankin' new! To God be the Glory Forever!!!!

Summary: Secrets of an Irresistible Woman
Review: I never really questioned my worth as a woman. Although I have to admit that in the past, I've acted against my belief in who I know I am in God. This book has helped to re-open my eyes to God's plan for us as women and has truly convicted me. I was silently saying "Amen" at every paragraph. Once, I even broke down and started to praise God as I sat on my bed, clenching this wonderful book. Truly moved, I've decided to wait on God until he sends the right person in my life, because I believe that I will know when that special man walks into my life. There won't be any drama---no "baby, the divorce is almost final" or "I'm almost out of a relationship", or "I have to see my ex because that's the only way I will get to see my kids." Oh no!!! The man who's missing me (as a fragment of his rib) will come ready, willing, able, and God-fearing. Ladies, get this book and get serious about your body (God's temple). Michelle, keep blessing us as the Lord continues to bless you.

Summary: This book is such a blessing! Author is definited anointed.
Review: I strongly recommend this book "Secrets of an Irresistible Woman" by Michelle McKinney Hammond. I believe the title to be a bit misleading because it does depict that it is a Christian book based on citations from the Word of God, however, it is very much so a gift from God. This woman is definitely an anointed writer. This book has been such a blessing for me. It is a book full of prayers and information on God's view of what love looks like, His intention for your life and guidlelines on conducting ourselves as virtuous women. All of this is information is in the Word and it is plainly referenced in this book. A couple of beautiful, sample prayers are below: Heavenly Father, thank you for the precious gift of Your love. Thank you for showing me what love looks like through the gift of Your Son. I ask that you impart to me the capacity to love as You love. Grant me the gift of discernment to see the hidden motives of the men who enter my life. Keep before me a picture of what love looks like, that I may not be decieved by the crumbs the enemy offers. Help me to wait on You to bring the one who will mainifest Your love to me in human form. Until then keep my heart in the palm of Your hand for safekeeping, in Jesus' name. Amen. Heavenly Father, this day I resubmit my life to You. I ask that You dismantle every previous dream and goal that I may have clung to that is not of You, and replace them with Your vision for my life. I ask that You reveal Your ordained purpose for my life and give me the courage to follow it through. I ask that You would plant Your desire for my life so firmly in my spirit that it burns like a fire that consumes me with a zeal to do Your bidding. Make provision for Your commission for my life. Fill my life with Yourself, fill every empty space in me with a sense of divine purpose and love for You. Let me be found being busy about my Father's business with joy emanating from my soul as I bask in the knowledge that I am in the center of Your will, in Jesus' name. Amen. This book mainly serves as a resource for single women, however, it does contain a lot of information that is useful to married women. I would definitely recommend this book to anyone who may be "going through" or who may want to be encouraged in their healing process, to ministers, to anyone who may may ever find themselves in a position to minister to a woman who reveres Christian principles or just an educational tool to validate how God's word is all-encompassing of knowledge about any of life's situations.
