Anna's Reviews > Love, Paris

We live in a broken world. Sin is so ugly. But there is a God who is a Redeemer—the Redeemer.

There were so many things I adored about this story.

1)It challenged my heart to draw closer to my Lord. I LOVE reading fiction that does that. Honestly we need more Christian fiction that goes deep, draws us to examine our own walk with God, and inspires us to do better.

2) Paris’ friends were just so awesome. They remind me of some amazing friends in my own life and the kind of friend I want to be. They aren’t without faults but they point her to the Bible often and they pray—they prayed a lot in this book. Seriously, again, we need more of this. Not just in a book but in real life relationships. Because if Jesus is our everything it should show! That point probably goes back to the first but that’s ok :)

3) There is just so much good “stuff” about dealing with our past biblically. Also hard topics of when others sin affects us…and through all that there is the Lord and the body of Christ. So grateful for that.

4) i don’t want to spoil anything, so I’ll just be vague about this part but the romance is so adorable. You’ll find lots of baking in this book—the apple pie is very important and key to the story ;) Bonus: the author also includes recipes at the end!! Yum ❤️

So much more I could say, but I would give away too much if I say more! I really did love this book. I’d give it a bonus star if possible! It may be my favorite fiction yet this year, and I will plan to read it again. I hope the author decides to write a third book in this series, because I’d love to see Paris (and Emma!) again.

(If you haven’t read “Emma and the Reasons” yet, go back and read that first! But come back—because you don’t want to skip this book. Reading in order will be most enjoyable)

Content: Paris does work at an inner city mission and the book deals with working through past sins. Because of the content (though tastefully done) I would recommend this book as best suited for adults and possibly older teens, as well, at their parents discretion.
