The main reason this book got 3 stars is:
1. It's very short, I would consider it a novella, and it's a bit pricey to me for being novella length.
2. How the main female character reacted to the main male character falling off the wagon, but I'll get to that.
This is a sweet, clean, Christian romance. If you enjoy Christian romances but like the ones where it's just there and a part of their lives, and it doesn't get "preachy" this is not that book. There is a lot of he was a horrible person when he was younger, but he's now a Christian and goes to church so I know he's changed. I liked the backstory for the couple this focuses on, the author really came up with something unique for the female lead. The male not so much but it worked well with the issued in the female's life.
Mini Rant:
I almost gave this story a much lower rating, and I would have if one of the side characters hadn't called Grace on being a reactionary nitwit. Kyle is an alcoholic and fell off the wagon due to a stressful incident. He realized he screwed up, but couldn't think of another way to cope and he felt bad after. Grace overreacted and instead of showing support, calling his sponsor, then deciding if she could deal with the possibility of this happening again she refused to talk to him. I understand not wanting to deal with someone else's addiction especially if they don't want to get better, but I felt she was just compounding the issue.
End Rant:
It was a good story, but it did have some major flaws, at least for me. Thank goodness for the level-headed older female mentor in the story, she's the one who made a big twist in the story much better for me. ( )
