This book was just okay. The two main characters fell in love when they were young but broke things off due to the interference of the man's mother who believed the woman wasn't good enough for her son. Oh and another woman who was apparently of a higher pedigree and therefore more suitable.
10 years later the man bumps into the woman in the store where she works and it seems that neither of them have gotten over their broken hearts from all those years ago. They get involved again and the rest of the story ( the majority of the book) is about their on/off relationship as they try to work things out by second guessing what each other is thinking. I'm sure other readers have felt the same frustration when reading this as it is labored to the point of being painful. If the two characters were honest and spoke about how they really felt at the outset none of the dialogue would've been necessary as it all revolves around various misunderstandings and insecurities and trying to correct them. But if they had been honest there would've been no material for the book...I also thought the way the man's mother suddenly changed her opinion about the relationship all within the space of about 30 minutes was totally unrealistic. She went from being antagonistically spiteful to joyful and encouraging about the potential union....I almost thought I had missed a few chapters.
This is a clean Christian fiction read but it wasn't inspiring or exciting. Just okay. ( )

Most days, Beth Forrest loved her job. After wearing a scratchy polyester wedding dress splattered with fake blood for eight hours, today was most definitely not one of those days.
