Publisher Description
This disaster may be just what she needed.
Darcy Malone's dreams of mission work are dashed on the eve of fulfilling them: The Guatemalan school she was going to teach at has closed, and she's already quit her job and given up her apartment. Stuck in her worst-case scenario, Darcy accepts an unexpected offer to move in with Bryson Katsaros's little sister, despite the years of distrust between her and Bryson, the lead singer in her best friend Cameron's band. But as she meets those close to Bryson, Darcy quickly discovers there is more to him than just his bad-boy persona.
Needing to find a purpose for all her sudden free time, Darcy jumps at the chance to care for and train a group of unruly dogs, with the aim of finding each a home before their bereaved owner returns them to animal control. But it's Darcy herself who will encounter a surprising rescue in the form of love, forgiveness, and learning to let go.

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
This lovely second installment of Gray's State of Grace series (after Love and a Little White Lie) continues the story of longtime friends Darcy, Bryson, and Cameron. Darcy is reeling from the abrupt cancelation of a yearlong mission trip. With no apartment or job, she accepts Bryson's offer to live with his half sister, Zoe. However, Bryson has ulterior motives in keeping her from rooming with Cameron—and it's obvious to everyone except Darcy that both men hold flames for her. Meanwhile, Darcy helps out an elderly friend of Bryson who needs to find homes for his late wife's rescue dogs, and works on dealing with her frustrations—with the canceled trip, her divorced parents, and a God who seems to have abandoned her. When she and Bryson begin dating, it's only a matter of time before Darcy must choose between her relationship with Bryson and her friendship with Cameron. In a surprising turn, Bryson and Darcy's relationship is marked by a sexual attraction that's often unseen in inspirational fiction. Gray delivers a beautiful illustration of the power found in the courage to forgive and move on despite disappointment and regret. Those who enjoy contemporary inspirational romances should take a look.
