Review: A bit disappointed on some parts

I'm somewhat disappointed that this novel ended up under "Christian" fiction. Being a Christian and the following of God's word, I found this hard to take in. On one hand, the characters, particularly the females, are praising God and talking about their faith, even reading the Bible, but on the other hand the men are using some pretty foul language and description of women as pretty trashy. Although the characters are heading for redeeming qualities, I found it disappointing to bring that kind of language and some sensual scenes into a book that praises God with words from the females and then doesn't praise God with actions, it made no sense. Even at one point the main female character, Sarah, comes across as mean and boasting how she got the better of her former employer.  The other part I found hard to take was the main hero, Tom, was a "cook" who owned a restaurant, yet he was tough cowboy type hero. Taking out the rough language and sexual content, this would be a 5 star story Inspirational Historical Romance.  I was also disappointed that the ending was rushed also,just felt like everything came to a close quickly and then the book was over.
