The Coach's Boys

review 1: Another great book in the Coach's boys series. Sam was adorable, what a great guy. I didn't think his secret was that big a deal but I know there needs to be some conflict in a story to be resolved so it worked. I love how Kirsty ties the books together, I like series where we are given a glimpse into the past characters enough to know how they're getting along. Love the series, I have read all the books twice and can't wait for Jon's story.
review 2: Who is in the mood for a sweet, clean romance with no sex, profanity, and old-fashioned family values? This is the book for you--without a doubt. This book has absolutely adorable characters, and I believe that everyone will fall in love with Holly and Sam. And her two boys are absolutely adorable. As for her ... moreex-husband, no spoilers. You will have to read the book yourself if you want to find out about him!As I read this, I found myself escaping to the world of sweet romance. I have to say I seriously doubt that these kinds of stories are very realistic, but in this world full of sorrow, hate, and pessimism, this is a welcome relief. Could someone as wonderful as Sam exist in real life? I would say they are few and far between--he is the ideal. I would have liked to know a little more about what happened with Holly's dad, but then, I suppose that makes the story a little more realistic.I absolutely adore the values in this book. I often read Christian fiction, and this is about as close to Christian fiction as you can get. Family values, not being sexually active before marriage, and treating people with respect are just a few of the positive messages you will see in this book. It is almost like taking a step back to s simpler time while still having all the modern conveniences we have today. And the message that Holly learns in the book is something that everyone could stand to learn. In the end, love covers a multitude of sins (and problems). Some of you may wonder why I gave this 4 stars instead of 5. Well, there are a couple of reasons. First of all, I will admit that this book followed a typical romance format. I will give Kristy James kudos because the story became extremely exciting in the last 25 or so pages. I wish she would have introduced the excitement a little bit sooner. I also felt that the story was just not realistic. The only time realism seemed to enter the book was when the action picked up towards the end.Now, I don't mean to major on the minors. Honestly, these minor issues did not keep me from enjoying the book. I actually would have liked to give it a 4.5 rating, but there is not that option on the rating system. I would highly recommend this book to any lover of good romances. It is well-written and sugary sweet at times, but always romantic!I was sent a copy of this book in exchange for my honest review. I was not financially compensated, and all opinions are 100 percent mine. less
