True to You

I underestimated this! I really enjoyed this, and I appreciated the true nature of how these characters struggled and wrestled with what was going on in their lives.

I thought the main character was a bit too hard on herself though and the end came a bit too abruptly. It's like it got to the point where I thought “okay this isn't just a romance novel there is more to this..”then BAM it ended just like any of them would. So that's a bit of a let down but overall I enjoyed it.

Always nice to see Christians being humans and dealing with real stuff and not robots.

A very enjoyable read. The only thing I didn't like was Nora's friend Nikki, who had no filter called “appropriate” on her mouth (not anything really nasty, but she does employ some innuendo and flirts with a man twenty years her junior). Also, I wanted John to communicate a bit better. To Nora, he's a silent mystery for a great deal of the book.

I loved the whole part about the small town built for Nora (despite recently having researched the cost of moving buildings, which means it's more fairy-take than practical) and I loved her research work. The twist is indeed quite the little doozy, but I really liked it. The redemption message and the specifically Christian application was a nice plus as well.

Note: for those of you who read “Her One and Only,” Gray is mentioned; and his best friend makes a cameo appearance in this story.
