📘 Coming Up Short
A Christian Romantic Comedy Novel by Sekou Browne
A laugh-out-loud love story set inside modern Christian dating—where faith is real, the numbers aren't numbering, and life refuses to follow the script.
Coming Up Short follows a woman navigating heartbreak, ambition interrupted, and the quiet pressure to "do everything right" while still longing for love. The story lives inside contemporary Christian spaces — where hope persists, options feel limited, and people are constantly improvising their way forward.
This novel explores:
• What happens when faith doesn't protect you from disappointment
• The emotional work women carry in seasons that last longer than expected
• The choices people make when the traditional paths don't seem to work
The story began as a film concept and has since grown into a novel — one I'm building carefully, honestly, and in conversation with early readers.
