Full Goodreads reviews for Not Quite Mr. Darcy
(I ***ed out the male hero’s name because it’s a surprise.)
“What a phenomenal book! . . . I was very impressed with all of the scripture that was included in the book. I also liked that several people came to know Christ as their Savior. It reminded me that people are lost and that my life and faith can be an example to them. Thank you, Kim Griffin, for not skimping on faith topics!” J. Durkin
“Kate was so strong, loving, and caring, and I loved the personal touch that the author put on this story. It brought me to tears at times . . . *** was such a romantic, swoonworthy, Christ-centered hero.” N. Lam
“I read the synopsis before starting this book, and it sounded very good, but I didn't realize that these characters were going to feel like my friends as I read. I also didn't expect the scripture references to touch me so much. It's a wonderful book for anyone looking for hope!” Anita
“As the story unfolds, you find yourself fully immersed in all aspects of the characters' lives, including their pain. The England backdrop adds a beautiful setting as Kate learns to heal from her grief and to put her trust in the Only One who can mend her broken heart.“ L. Sexton
