I can't believe internet searches led me nowhere, but, here I am. I need to ask the global community of bibliophiles. I need to write a query letter that describes my novel by comparing it to two others (preferably as a combination of the two). I've never read a novel like mine so I have no reference within myself. If you can tell me of a novel or two that has elements of self-acceptance, overcoming self-imposed disappointment, and fears of missing out and not fulfilling destiny, I'd really appreciate it. It seems strange that I can't think of any novels like this but every novel I've read misses the main subject somehow. Also, my novel is Christian fiction. I'm hoping this means my book is unique since most Christian novels I've seen have nice tidy progressions and conclusions. Not my style.

I know about adding setting and target audience, but those were listed as separate in the requirements. I figured I would best find a similar plot if I first found novels with a similar theme, but I'll describe the plot a bit. It's about a girl who gives her life to Jesus, expecting great things because she's determined to follow Him. However, she makes excuses when God urges her to let a guy go. She winds up being date-raped and arrested. She must learn how to forgive herself & overcome stigma.

The target audience is adult women. The setting is Seattle, WA in the 1990's.
