Review of "A Billion Reasons Why" by Kristin Billerbeck

Description:

There are a billion reasons Kate should marry her current boyfriend.

Will she trade them all to be madly in love?

Katie McKenna leads a perfect life. Or so she thinks. She has a fulfilling job, a cute apartment, and a wedding to plan with her soon-to-be fiance, Dexter.

She can think of a billion reasons why she should marry Dexter…but nowhere on that list is love.

And then in walks Luc DeForges, her bold, breathtaking ex-boyfriend. Only now he’s a millionaire. And he wants her to go home to New Orleans to sing for her childhood friend’s wedding. As his date.

But Katie made up her mind about Luc eight years ago, when she fled their hometown after a very public breakup. Yet there’s a magnetism between them she can’t deny.

Katie thought her predictable relationship with Dexter would be the bedrock of a lasting, Christian marriage. But what if there’s more? What if God’s desire for her is a heart full of life? And what if that’s what Luc has offered all along?

My Thoughts:

This was a sweet and fun romantic read! Perfect for Valentine's Day!  I knew from the moment that Dexter's character was introduced that I did NOT want Katie to marry him!  I loved how Katie's mom explained it, that when life had hard times, Katie would want someone to jump in do fight with her, not someone who would blame her for the problems. 

Billerbeck always creates wonderful romances with a fun combination of light-heartedness thrown in.  I couldn't wait to read the whole story to find out what went wrong with Luc and Katie's romance and what Luc's reasons were for his actions.  I, like Katie, love the Ginger Roger dancing movies and movies like "Singing in the Rain," so that aspect of the story was fun as well.

A great romantic read for the most romantic holiday of the year!
