Andrea is starting that complicated phase of adolescence in which one already has some definitions of what wants for life and begins to reject others. She is now god-fearing, extremely obedient to her parents, and loyal to her friends. But her friend Amy is urging her to invite rookie Luke to Homecoming banquet at the Christian school where she studies and her parents do not want her to get involved with any boy, just devote herself to her piano studies and recital.

Luke is a true Prince Charming and a saint because he does everything to please Andrea and uses a thousand subterfuges to stay close to her but the girl runs away from him and ignores him at various times, which made me very angry and at some points of reading bored . Even coming from the trauma of parental divorce and suffering from his father's pressure, he proves to be more mature than his age and I fell in love with him.

The basis of the story is fantastic, I love books that use biblical passages and positive messages, but the writer exaggerated in creating 200 pages of a girl only running away from a cute-handsome-perfect boy. I think she could have give more dynamic by showing situations with Andrea's friend and even putting in more Bible messages. She missed the chance to make a 6/5 star book.

I really enjoyed the accounts of Andrea's diaries of challenges where she always ends with a biblical passage. I'm going to look for more of this author's books, because I believe that she should gradually would mature her writing and have many chances to write more fun stories like this one.
