Opis

Seventeen-year-old Ezra-Nori-Thorpe-Casey is in a jam. He's locked up in the steeple of the Free Will Baptist Church in Mansfield, Oklahoma awaiting his fate: a shotgun wedding to Preacher Bascom's daughter, Roseabeth. The shotgun-toting Preacher is convinced Ezra "ruined" Roseabeth on prom night and aims to make things right. By hook or crook, luck or logic, Ezra needs to find a way to evade the unholy union with the less that angelic Roseabeth; however, with Preacher, the town bully, the county sheriff, and the local chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution coming down on him like hard rain, it will take a miracle for Ezra to maintain his freedom, never mind his dignity. And sometimes miracles happen, even to those who think they're undeserving. At other times, as Billy Joel tells us: "Only the Good Die Young."
