I was sorely disappointed with this book. It seemed like a sweet story, and it some ways, it was. Strange, and slightly unrealistic age differences aside, I enjoyed the overall IDEA of the story. It could have been SO much better. But if you're looking for a clean romance novel with a Godly message tied into it (as I was), and expect to find it in this because it's a Love Inspired book, you will also be disappointed. I was shocked at the amount of thinly veiled sexual innuendos. I read on, hoping it would get better, but they saved the worst for very last! Apparently Ms. Rutledge has written secular novels as well, and this seemed to me like she put "God" and "church" in there a few times and called it "Christian"...or "inspirational", I suppose, but I was not "inspired" to read any more of her novels.
