Only Uni<\/a> by Camy Tang<\/a><\/p>\n

Senior biologist Trish Sakai is ready for a change from her wild, flirtatious behavior. So Trish creates three simple rules from First and Second Corinthians and plans to follow them to the letter. No more looking at men as possible dates, especially non-Christians. Second, tell others about Christ. And third, she will persevere in hardship by relying on God. And just to make sure she behaves, she enlists the help of her three cousins, Lex, Venus and Jennifer, the only Christians in their large extended family.<\/p>\n

But Trish\u2019s dangerously tempting ex-boyfriend, Kazuo the artist, keeps popping up at all the wrong moments, and her grandmother, who has her eye on his family money, keeps trying to push the two of them back together again. Then there\u2019s Spencer, the hunky colleague at work who keeps turning Trish\u2019s thoughts in the wrong direction.<\/p>\n

It just isn\u2019t fair! She\u2019s trying so hard, but instead of being God\u2019s virtuous woman, she\u2019s going nuts trying to stand firm against two hunky guys. Trish thought following her three rules would be a cinch, but suddenly those simple rules don\u2019t seem so simple after all.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

I’m afraid I’m doing this review based upon memory since I read this book over a month ago and never got around to blogging about it! The story was entertaining and there were a lot of twists and turns, things that happened that you totally did not expect. Trish has decided to make some changes in her life and to be a better Christian. She even wants to go to divinity school to get her degree among other things. She’s also been assigned a new office mate, Spencer, who’s driving her crazy with his good looks. However, she thinks that Spencer is not a Christian because she’s seen him flirting with female colleagues. Trish is shocked when she discovers Spencer’s true nature. Also, she finds it necessary to join a new church and to become more involved with more ministries. Amidst all this new turmoil in her life, she finds her ex, an artist, has made it his mission to stalk her, begging her to come back. Trish’s grandmother assists Kuzuo, the artist, to win her granddaughter’s affections.<\/p>\n

This story was humorous and you’ll also learn a few things about Asian culture. I don’t see many novels in the Christian market with Asian characters. I’d never heard of a K-drama until I’d read this story. It’s an entertaining read that you’ll finish in a few days because it’s written in a way that’ll keep you turning the pages. <\/p>\n

I reviewed the first book in the series here<\/a>.<\/p>\n
