Grayson Sumner is thrown into Felicia's life despite of each other.

What I liked about this book:
This is one of the most humorous books I have ever read!!!!
There are some extremely comical scenes that had me laughing out loud often.
I really enjoyed that some characters form previous books in this series played an important role in this book.
What I didn't like about this book:
The only thing I didn't like about this book is a cliche' I have noticed in a lot of Christian romances-
The main male character has given up on God because of his past, but he soon falls in love with a Godly woman who helps him realize his need for God's grace. The reason this bothers me is that I am convicted that a Christian should be in a relationship with another Christian. I am not trying to preach, just sharing what I feel is Biblical.
My rating: 3
