Maybe it's You is an inspirational romance. It appropriately depicts edgy and sometimes uncomfortable subjects. The main character, Reagan, has only one experience with church, and it wasn't pleasant. No wonder she stresses out when she's tricked into attending. (You'll love this scene.)
Regan is more comfortable with a planned, itemized, know-what's-next kind of life, because her childhood was anything but. This edgy character is a spit-fire. Her snarky attitude, blunt opinions, and dedication to friendship are a lovely mix. However, to her dismay, she's not always in control. Dash-rendered-stupidity is unfortunate and unexpected.
Dash is on the road to redemption, so to speak. He's decide to get his life in order without distractions, and decided to take a year long break from dating. Regan was in his sights long before he turns his life around, and he decides to reach out to develop a friendship and share his faith with her. He'd kidding himself on both ventures. Their relationship is filled with laughter, growth, confusion, and frustration.
This story deals with struggles of newfound faith, and how to instill it in every aspect of life, be it dating, work, friends or your own inner thoughts. I enjoyed this book because it didn't skirt around real live issues. I must mention: At times the storyline became preachy, however that is my opinion, and it didn't take away from the story. That being said, I recommend this read.
