About this listen
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 29 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?

A successful LA artist, Roman Velasco appears to have everything he could possibly want - money, women, fame. Only Grace Moore, his reluctant, newly hired personal assistant, knows how little he truly has. The demons of Roman's past seem to echo through the halls of his empty mansion and out across his breathtaking Topanga Canyon view. But Grace doesn't know how her boss secretly wrestles with those demons: by tagging buildings as the Bird, a notorious but unidentified graffiti artist - an alter ego that could destroy his career and land him in prison.

The author did a great job portraying feelings for both a person with faith, and one without, as well as conversion. The love triangle wasn’t in your face, and the plot was sound.
I’d highly recommend this super clean, Christian romance.

Incredible
I love everything about this book. After my first hour of listening to/reading this book, I was completely hooked. There was so much depth and so many incredible characters — and I hope we will be meeting many of them in future spinoffs from the story. But, oh, how I love Dillon and January!
This story could not be more true to life… Life in its many varied stages and personalities of the Christian life. It truly warmed my heart to meet these different characters and recognize them from within the true body of Christ.
The narration was perfectly done. Again, I just loved this book and and I am just so blessed that Tammy L Gray has found her way back to writing again.
