I am attempting to read mor christain novels after reading [b:The Shack|1812457|The Shack|William P. Young|http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51km9XU29RL._SL75_.jpg|2666268]. This author is quite popular and was recommended. I enjoyed the setting of the NFL world, and learning more about children in foster care. I did not enjoy how everything was tied in a neat package at the end. The ending was very predictable and boring to an otherwise engaging story. Melissa is raising Cory after his mother suddenly falls ill and dies. Aaron Hill is the quarterback for the 49ers and Cory believes with all his heart that he is his father. Melissa is a single mom working two jobs just to keep food on the table and while she loves Cory with all her heart, his obsession with his father is very hard to handle. She wants to adopt him, but with him holding onto a father walking in his life, she can't. They live in different worlds but when Aaron needs to clean up his image, they come together at the foster home where she volunteers. Derrick is the man who brings God to Aaron and helps him change his life. The ending was predictable because Melissa finally gives Aaron a chance and the rest is history.
