Helpful Score: 7
I wanted to like this book as I love a nice small town Christian fiction series. This was the chosen book for our church book club, and midway through reading it was discarded. There are many questionable viewpoints expressed by the author through her characters, but the most disheartening to me was the affirmation that young girls should not engage in sexual activity until they are emotionally ready, not until they are married. I can pick up any work of fiction and find approval for sexual immorality and sexual tension, but I read Christian fiction because I don't want to be constantly bombarded with these things. The quaint title and the inviting artwork on the cover aren't a good match for this book's contents.
