Murphy's Law... It applies to allSometimes we just have "those days" when nothing turns out right. If you have been there, done that, you will enjoy The Perfect Blend. Romance fills the air, smiles ever present, with happiness just around the corner... or is it?The characters are fun, troublesome, and annoying, with a variety of personalities to spice up the confusion. The details are clear and the story unfolds like a movie in the mind.If you have ever given up, felt defeated, or had a bad day you will find a common bond with Steph who discovers hope. The sunshine comes when she turns thoughtful, inward and seeks guidance from above.Find a quiet moment, graba cup of warm cocoa, relax in a comfy chair and read The Perfect Blend. You're sure to feel better! “The Perfect Blend” was an absolute delight reading and it stands out that it combines innocent humor, romance that is pure and doesn’t involve implying but rather, if I had this book laying out, I couldn’t worry if my daughter would read.There is old fashion chivalry, and as I was reading, “The Perfect Blend” , I couldn’t help but think how it reminds me of the 40′s movies where there is no sensuality but rather sweet humor charm that perpetrated the old romances of back then.Along with the clean cut romance, is the bottom layer story of trusting our Father, and bringing what it had intended, “A fun, romantic story about tackling the unexpected moment of life with courage, faith, prayer, and good friends, and discover how wonderfully life changing, those moments can be.”The characters are not perfect and have a past that brings a warm hearted believability that makes them both three dimensional but also likable that draws the reader into the story.“The Perfect Blend”is just well written, well detailed and it isn’t your average romance novel. It’s very sweet that it leaves you hoping and wishing that there is a town like Middleburg or a tea shop like Millicent, with both warm, caring and funny townspeople that the main character, Steph, encounters.I also like how Trish Perry interweaves Steph’s conflict with being a 26 year old and dealing with being a Christian, honoring her parents, but also striving for independence that wasn’t dishonoring to her family, her faith or to her friends.With,“The Perfect Blend”, the reader will find the perfect blend of a romantic, not romance, but romantic, faith filled fiction that, although isn’t heavy on scriptural references, does have underlying in the story, the struggles of being true to one’s faith, not being luke-warm, being true to oneself and to our Father and blending it all in a perfect balance of a delight filled fictional tale of Steph Vandergrift as she finds herself stranded in a strange town.
