First Date by Krista McGee

First Date was a cute story that related the growth of a young girl in confidence and a better relationship with God.

Abby Davidson never wanted to be on a reality TV show. Especially one where the prize is a date with the President's son.

She is focused on her schoolwork in order that she can receive a scholarship to an Ivy league school. She has never been on a date, never comfortable in the spotlight. Furthermore, Abby did not even audition to be on the show.
But she got selected anyway.

So Abby does her very best to be eliminated on the very first show. However, she soon realizes that the President's son is probably the most attractive, nicest guy she has ever meant. He also is completely uninterested by the other 99 girls who are throwing themselves at him.

Abby is completely out of her comfort zone, but that might be right where God decides to show her all that she could be and do for Him.

This novel was a really sweet story that I did not want to put down. The main characters were very sweet. I really liked the President's son and Abby's roommate/friend who was on the show with her. Abby starts out as a shy, withdrawn girl who does not have the confidence to tell anyone she is a Christian nor even act in a friendly manner to those who are around her.

However, as the story progresses, Abby grows in her faith, and she begins to have the confidence to speak out about her faith. First Date was an excellent read that was loosely based off the story of Esther, and I really enjoyed it.

I received this book for free from Booksneeze.com in exchange for an honest review.
