Description:
Struggling journalist Maizy Grace Stewart isn't really a believer, but she manages to "fake it" in order to land a part-time job at a Christian publishing house. When the newspaper editor commissions her to write an undercover expose of her new employer, will her conversations with churchgoing colleagues lead to success---or second thoughts?
My Thoughts:
Another good book by Tamara Leigh! I always enjoy her quirky characters who have very real foibles and character flaws. Maizy Grace is just one of those characters. She needs money because her part time job at a paper is not covering her epensives. So she looks for another part time job at a Christian publisher and has to "fake" her beliefs in order to get the job. She changes her name to "Grace," adds appropriate "Christian" jewelry (aka cross necklace and WWJD bracelet), throughs in some "Christian" bumper stickers for good measure, and actually gets the job. The problem is keepering her co-workers believing her "lies" means actually going to church and befriending them. Imagine her surprise when she ends up learning things from them along the way.
A fun premise, with a bit of sarcastic wit aimed good-naturedly at those of us who try to make ourselves look really "Christian" when it suits us. I enjoyed it very much!
