I loved this book. It kept me interested to the end. I loved the humor, romance, and comedy and was so refreshed that it was clean. No foul language, no X-rated scenes. 

Last, it was not the same predictable plot as many "Christian Romance" I have read. 

Thanks, Nike, for giving us a great, refreshing alternative to some of the stuff that is out there!
