Review # 1 was written on 2014-02-05 00:00:00 Jer Flores I have this book marked under Christian fiction, but I'm not sure if it should be. God was mentioned only once and Jesus never was. There were very few mentions of faith-related subjects. I read this book for the first time four years ago. I really liked it then, but I don't really like it now. I don't dislike it, I just think it's okay. My main reason for giving it the rating I did had little to do with it not having much about Jesus in it. Karen Kingsbury is a Christian author, but I guess she didn't want to incorporate faith in Jesus in this novel. The reason I gave it two stars instead of more is because it was so terribly cliche. It was a typical romantic inspirational novel through and through. Examples: You had two people who did not want love, who then fell in love. They had their own agendas, but of course they didn't matter anymore once they met. Ali was a dying fighter, Cody an angry cowboy. They kissed a lot before actually committing to one another. They had the "sort of love most people never have." Once Ali was dying, she asked Cody to remarry. She told Cody that she would live on even after she died. There were too many cliches for my taste, and that dropped the rating way down. The writing was well done, except for the annoying dramatic one-liners that were dropped in here and there. I like Karen Kingsbury, but I know she is capable of better than this. On the bright side, there were a few sweet moments and touching lines. I learned a little about the rodeo culture. But other than that, there wasn't much to be excited about.
