Divinely Designed

Divinely Designed
By Rachael Renee Anderson
Bonneville Books, 2009. 182 pgs. Romance

En route to Tempe, Arizona where she'll be starting a new job for a prestigious interior design company, Kennedy Jackson gets a flat tire; Braxton Taylor stops to help her, and is charmed by her sense of independence and determination to fix the problem on her own. Although they go their separate ways, they soon run into each other again--Kennedy's new roommate Stacey has a crush on Braxton and he, as the ward mission leader, is trying to help her learn about the LDS Church. However, Braxton hires Kennedy to decorate some houses he's building, and as their work relationship develops, so do their feelings for each other.

This lighthearted romantic comedy is a good choice for fans of LDS chick-lit. I wish some of the deeper issues of the book had been addressed a little more and not resolved quite so easily, but overall, it's nice, uplifting story.
