Like the first book in the series, this was quick to read and mostly enjoyable, but there were some comments that indicated a poor understanding of God's standards regarding relationships.
One character did realize the error in her thinking that was present in the first book; but then, other characters are told that they need to "follow their heart," that men need a good woman to "complete" them, that romantic love is greater and more important than life itself - better to die with the person you love than to live without them. It's indicated that God has a "special man" in mind for all women. When vows are exchanged, they talk of "eternal love" instead of "til death doth part," which is a subtle but telling difference.
There were several scenes that were overly sensual, moreso than in the first book.
I did generally like the character of Karen, and appreciated seeing her struggle with anger towards God. Yet, this seemed too quickly and easily resolved. I really wish this had been more true-to-life - which is maybe an unrealistic expectation from "Christian" fiction. ( )
