I always enjoy a good christian love story and Lori Wick does such an elegant job of weaving moral values in with those romantic feelings. This story take place in a modern setting. The main conflict of the story involves cultural differences between a third world village and Hawaiian culture. Wick does a great job of explaining through the characters how difficult it can be to reach unreached people for Christ without offending the traditions and values of that people group.
Lilly, the main character, begins her journey from the village to Hawaii to visit her brother. One thing leads to another and she finds that she has fallen in love with her brother's best friend Gabe. She returns to her father in the village because she said she would. She chooses to honor he father and God and not take control. In the end, God honors her choices and works to bring Lilly and Gabe back together.
This was an easy read. Good light reading with hope for what Jesus has done to liberate women.

Cyndee - do you have this in your personal collection? Let me know. One area definately lacking in our library is Christian books - especially Christian fiction.
If it's yours - mind lending it down the road a piece? Let me know!
