Lucy Wiltshire believes she has found the perfect man. Matt is stable, reliable and loves helping people just as much as she does. There's one problem, instead of proposing he tells her that he's taking a job promotion halfway across the country. Flash forward two years and her pride and joy Saving Grace, a home she has created for girls who have aged out of the system, is in jeopardy of closing due to lack of funding.
Insert Alex Sinclair, a notorious heart-breaker who is running for congress and needs to revamp his playboy image. When pictures surface of him and the wholesome, down to earth Lucy the public eats it up. His polls skyrocket. It seems they each have what the other needs; Alex will personally fund Saving Grace if Lucy agrees to pose as his fiancée. But when Matt suddenly reappears Lucy's world gets turned upside down.
This is a quick, easy read for anyone who enjoys romances. The references to God are not overwhelming, although a bit kitschy. I couldn't help but think that everyone in the book were such wholesome characters, it was almost too unbelievable. And totally predictable. I'm all for happy endings, but too many tied up endings left me a little disappointed in this cookie cutter book. Where's the villain? Where's the conflict? I would definitely recommended for a fun read, but don't expect anything insightful.
