This was a charming story. I enjoyed the way Jennings had to sort through so many thoughts and feelings before he was able to have things happen right. The time it took for him to warm up to Penny was believable and heart-warming when he actually did. Read more: http://christianfictionaddiction.com/book_reviews/proposal.htm (
