I was all set to give this book a one star. I felt the author concentrated too much on details and there wasn't enough dialogue. I still think so, but she certainly made up for it in the final chapter!!! I was laughing and crying as I read the climax of this wonderful book!!!

I too am currently praying that God will send that special someone into my life. I feel the older I get, the less of a chance I have but I keep holding on, having faith in God's timing and God's decision.

This book was wonderful. My heart ached for Layne and the pain she went through when Rod broke up with her for a pretty stupid reason. I still don't know that Rod deserved her after hurting her like he did, but for some reason she loved him enough to not give up on him. I think Rod was a sweetheart, and I'm glad the two got together in the end, but oh how I felt like punching him! I kept thinking he deserved a good punch in the nose a few times, but Layne kept egging him on. She didn't know when to leave it alone.

Their final fight in chapter ten was the BEST one ever. I could just see them standing in her living room yelling at each other. At times the things that left their lips was just pure craziness, but we don't think straight when we are fighting, now do we? I LOVED the scene where they argue about their breaking up or not..."Were we going together?" It was a hoot! And I loved the comment about the wedding...something about "I don't want to wait until after the wedding, but I will because I love you." But she never really heard what he said because her mind stopped at the word "wedding."

I could go on all night about this last chapter. It was so wonderful. That chapter alone deserves five stars!!! This was a good read.

This book was written outside the Christian Genre and later turned into a Christian book. Keep that in mind! ( )
