Oh, what a yummy fun loving novel!

From the first chapter I was drawn into the world of this debut novel. Witty, funny, snarky and mixed with a dose of suave and youve got a contemporary romance healthy in humor and nutritious in the romantic conflict department. (Okay, ending the food metaphors here, I promise)

Maddie is a baby Christian with sort of a false sense of prayer and all God is. But shes trying and she wants to honor the God who has saved herbut on one condition: she cannot fall in love with her boss. I dont think Maddie knew the meaning yet of the genre she was being written in to

Sparks fly in this novel of grace, acceptance and trust that God has the very best plans no matter how much we might pray otherwise. So many moments had my family looking at me funny as I snorted and laughed my way through the book. Maddie has got the quirkiest sense of humor and ability to find the snark in each moment. She knows how to make a book fun.

The novel isnt all light and fluff. It serves up its own dose of painful backstory that affect the characters. At first I thought it a difficult contradiction to reconcile with the amount of humor, but found character growth in the end to make it all a delightful read.

Perfect escape for the too-quick hours this novel takes to read!
