You may recognize Carlos and Alexa PenaVega from Hallmark movies like I did which turned me onto to learning more and wanting to read this book in the first place. I didn’t even realize the many other things that both of them starred in not to mention how they even got their start in the limelight of movies and sitcoms. I have a great appreciation now knowing what they went through and how they came to the place they are in today not just with their careers and personally but also spiritually.

This book not only is a really simple and fast read for anyone that may not have a lot of extra time, but it is so easy to relate to whether you are single, married, or a parent. Whether you are a Christian today or not, this book will help connect you with how being one really can change your life. It is a blessing.
My favorite part of this book is the last chapter where it pulls in all of the wonderful points of how to live a life of love in so many different aspects of life. I truly felt warm feelings with those beautiful words of expression, and they made me evaluate how I can incorporate those into my life. I felt myself highlighting the words through many of their chapters that showed encouragement and true words of wisdom not only from the Bible but from their experiences. Life is not always easy, but when you have the right attitude and strength in God it can be definitely more bearable.

The realness of how Carlos and Alexa expressed their journeys in life before and after meeting one another just gave me a deeper appreciation of who they are. Their deep love for God and one another is a true testament to what it means that ‘two are better than one”. I cannot wait to see more from them on the big screen and hopefully within print. Thank you for sharing your stories and in such a meaningful way!

I did not want to put this book down. I read it from cover to cover within 30 hours, while being a working mom, and full time student. That should tell you something about how engaging, captivating and honest this book really is. I have been following Carlos and Alexa since they got married and it has been refreshing to know more about their inner struggles and to know that no matter what I am going through and that even "famous" people who seem to have it all together, we are all the same. We are all human and in need of Jesus! This was a simple read, and I am already encouraging my family and friends to pick up a copy as well! This is a well written, honest story about how they came to find Jesus, themselves and each other! I highly recommend!

I will admit I don’t read a lot of non-fiction work; however, once I started What If Love is the Point, I could not put it down. I’ve been a fan of Alexa and Carlos for years and it was so interesting to get to know them a little more through this book. I loved reading about their journey so far and I just loved their journey’s getting to know Jesus stronger. I’m not famous, I am not in the entertainment business, but somehow, they made their journey so relatable. One of my favorite parts of the book was near the end where Alexa is talking about how she had made her list for things that she wanted (specifically in a boyfriend/husband) but really God has His list for us and that applies in all areas of life. I love this point that God loves us no matter what, no matter where we are, and we can try and have our own list of things we want to do or what we see for ourselves in a partner, but God knows what’s best for us and we need to give it up to Him and trust in Him. I highly recommend this book.
