Boys.

They are bound to be the death of me.

Especially one with blue eyes, perfectly Mormon cut hair, and probably the inspiration for the girl’s camp song "Hot Priest".

Why the heck did he have to be the bishop’s son?

Cause here’s the thing. While I’m Mormon, I don’t really belong. I mean, I want to, but I just can’t seem to keep on the straight and narrow. Seriously, look at me. I’m not even supposed to use the name Mormon anymore, but Latter-Day Saint is a mouthful. So I’m sticking to Mormon. Sorry, Prophet.

The bishop knows my past. He knows my problems. There is no freaking way he’s going to let me date his son.

Yet, Nate comes after me anyway. And I fall hard.

But eventually….I will have to tell him about my past.

And I know, he’ll run far, far away from me when I do.

SWEET AND LOVELY FIND THE RIGHT WAY IN THIS BEAUTIFUL STORY

Lauren is going through a dark phase after the humiliation caused by her father. Moving away may be the best decision to start over, but she must choose to continue on the right path and be brave enough to return to church after all her mistakes. When she meets Nate, her whole world changes but then she discovers that he is the bishop's son and her past may get in the way. Lauren must find a way to straighten her life and learn to forgive so she can feel the Spirit again and finally be happy.

Sometimes, the hardest thing is forgiving ourselves.”

I really liked Lauren. Each step in the right direction is hard and requires a lot of courage, but she was changing and growing a little bit more with each page of this book, finding and forgiving herself.

On the other hand, Nate is adorable and such a sweet boy, I loved him so much. He's charming and he became an amazing character. And his friends are great too, each of them is very unique and special, as well as Nate's little brother who is adorable, by the way. I liked both the protagonists and the secondary characters.

The plot of this book was very interesting from the beginning. I had never read about the Later Day Saints -or Mormons- and it filled me with curiosity since I read the synopsis. My interest increased as I progressed with the reading. The subject was fascinating, although I would've liked some extra explanations as I was reading certain concepts.

The romance in this book is beautiful and so special. There are really sweet scenes, and I even found several lovely quotes. There is also a lot of drama, scenes full of tension and emotion. I was hooked with this story from the beginning to the end. It's a really entertaining and addictive reading.

Another thing that I liked was the way the story is told, as if it were a video with Lauren narrating her life. It was a very original element introduced by the author and I loved it, she immersed me even more in the story.

“Then let me enlighten you. The second you waltzed into my life, I knew there was something special about you. I couldn’t keep my eyes or my thoughts off of you. The more I get to know you, the more I like you. I’m so unbelievably torn because I’ll be leaving in a few months, and I didn’t want to get involved with anyone. But I can’t help myself. I like you. A lot.”

I really liked this book, it's a very sweet story, and it left me wanting more. 

And also, that cover is gorgeous.
