I was glad to see that the main women in the book, all Christians, applied their faith to all facets of life - mostly. The main male characters all lack a trust in God.
There's a lot that I enjoyed about the book, such as that there are missionary characters referred to, and one woman who is an older single and missionary. I appreciated that the women talked about their faith in a casual, everyday way. It wasn't some special thing reserved for a church service.
However, toward the end, there is a situation where a character justifies marriage to a nonbeliever (whom she had already allowed herself to fall in love with) because she "couldn't see another way," but this is such an easy excuse to make. She didn't try very hard to find another way. She definitely takes on the "missionary dating" attitude that believes it's okay to disobey God in this way, because she's going to help him become a Christian and that will smooth it all over. It's just wrong.
There's also the presence of "instalove" here, which is always frustrating, and while there's nothing sexually explicit, there are a few scenes that are sexually suggestive.
The primary characters are all quite wealthy, and I'm not a fan of reading about rich people, to be honest.
There are several very cheesy lines.
So, not terrible overall, but could have been improved, for sure. ( )
