I don't know whether Shay's attitude is typical of a long time Christian or atypical of Christians. When Shay's friend, Malcolm, decides to give his heart to the Lord, Shay does not jump up and down with joy because a new Christian has decided to surrender his heart and soul to the Lord."What just happened? Did Malcolm really have a Bible in his hands? But the man has never wanted anything to do with God."Shay is very ambitious. She wants to get a promotion on her job. She sees Malcom as a competitor. He is just another man who will prove untrustworthy. When she becomes sick, she is not able to attend a meeting at work to promote her product and a company. Malcolm, a gentleman, offers to present it for her. Shay believes he will just steal all of her well deserved credit in order to make himself look good. This is short but true portrait of Shay's character and her goal in life."Work on my relationship with God and my career...and leave men out of the equation."As Shay dances back and forth in  her lack of trust for Malcom, she also finds herself becoming attracted to him. After all, he is handsome. The story is intriguing, not preachy and fun to read. It also made me think about whether I'm afraid for others to meet the Lord because of my insecurities or my lack of growth in the Christian life. In the meantime, Malcolm tells what he looks for in a woman."You are a beautiful woman. But I've dated plenty of beautiful women who couldn't hold my interest. It's your inner spirit that...."By the way the Christian message that made Malcolm want to give his heart to the Lord  is titled "A Mighty Love." (bought from AMAZON)vanessamiller
