Save the Date by Jenny B Jones.

Lucy Wiltshire is the founder of Saving Grace, a shelter for girls who have graduated from the foster care system. When the funding for the shelter is pulled, she’ll do anything to get it back.

Alex Sinclair is a former football star fighting a losing battle for a seat in Congress. He is running from ghosts of his recent past, while his opponent does everything to ruin Alex’s reputation.

They both have something the other needs: Alex, a relationship with a woman the public can adore; Lucy, funding for Saving Grace. Will Lucy agree to pose as Alex’s fiance to secure the funding, even if it means confronting her past? Can Alex face his family and the reality of his situation?

This book- oh my goodness. Jenny B Jones is such a great writer! This book is witty and oh so very funny. I loved the way she developed Lucy and Alex’s relationship...it was very believable. I found myself laughing out loud, then trying to explain it to my sister next to me. There were a few twists thrown in that were totally unexpected. And Julian? Not to give you any spoilers, but he was my favorite character: “Girl, a little extra moisturizer ain’t ever hurt nobody!”

Great job, Jenny!

Note: I received this book free of charge from Thomas Nelson Publishers, through BookSneeze. I was not required to write a favorable review, only an honest one.
