Love and a Little White Lie

After hitting rock bottom, January decides she has nothing to lose in working at her aunt's church-while hiding a lack of faith. A minor deception until she meets the church's guitarist and sparks fly. Can she avoid disaster-especially when a handsome landscape architect has an annoying ability to push her to deal with feelings she'd rather keep buried?

January Sanders grew up believing karma was more reliable than an imaginary higher power, but after suffering her worst heartbreak in twenty-nine years, she's open to just about anything, including taking a temporary position at her aunt's church. Keeping her lack of faith a secret, January is determined to use her photographic memory to help Grace Community's overworked staff, all while scraping herself off rock bottom.

What she doesn't count on is meeting the church's handsome and charming guitarist, who not only is a strong believer, but has also dedicated his life to Christian music. It's a match set for disaster, and yet January has no ability to stay away, even if it means pretending to have faith in a God she doesn't believe in.

Only this time, keeping secrets isn't as easy as she thought it would be. Especially when she's constantly running into her aunt's landscape architect, who seems to know everything about her past and present sins and makes no apologies about pushing her to deal with feelings she'd rather keep buried.

Torn between two worlds incapable of coexisting, can January find the healing that's eluded her or will her resistance to the truth ruin any chance of happiness?

In this touching inspirational from Gray (My Hope Next Door), a faithless woman gets more than she bargained for as she rebounds from a broken heart. After January Sanders’s boyfriend leaves her for another woman, she takes refuge in a rural Texas cabin and interviews for a job as an administrative assistant at her aunt’s church. Much to the surprise of January, who is an atheist, she gets the job and falls for Cameron, an attractive Christian musician who has dreams of making it big. Cameron’s friend Dillon does landscape maintenance for the property January is living on and is quick to challenge January on the fact that she is keeping her lack of faith a secret. Then, as a favor to a church member, January starts reading the Bible to Mrs. Cox, an older nearly blind woman. Despite everyone around her preaching the power of prayer, January refuses to believe until Mrs. Cox lands in the hospital because of a heart condition and January prays for her. When she is rebuffed after sharing her secret lack of faith with Cameron, she throws herself into her work and unexpected friendship with devout Dillon. Gray’s entertaining tale showcases the power of love and faith in unexpected places. (Aug.)

Jan Sanders was brought up to believe that religion was a fairy tale. When her heart gets broken, she heads to her aunt Doreen and uncle Jim's to recover, despite her aunt's involvement in the church. Doreen helps get Jan a temporary job as an assistant at the church, which leads Jan to feel like an impostor, since she doesn't believe in God. However, the people she meets there are so kind and genuine that she finds herself fitting in with the staff, especially musician Cameron. In her heart Jan knows she'll never belong if her lack of faith gets out. But Dillon Kyle, a contractor at her aunt's ranch, sees right through her, despite having his own secrets he isn't ready to share. Jan comes to discover that God does exist and that He is active in her life. Once Jan opens her heart to God, a family rift starts to mend, and she finds love and a place she belongs. Gray ("Hope" series; "Winsor" series) has crafted a sweet story, but it will not have crossover appeal for those who don't typically read Christian fiction. VERDICT Purchase for collections where modern inspirational romance does well.—Heather Webb, Worthington Libs., OH
