This book took me a long time to finish, but I'm finally through Love on Assignment by Cara Lynn James. Having a new baby does not help my reading! I was a bit apprehensive when starting this book, as I'm not a big fan of "Christian romance" books and usually find them a bit cheesy, but this one drew me in right away. The story follows Charolette as she goes undercover as a governess to find anything incriminating on the writer of the local column promoting Christian living and encouraging good work environments. She is hoping this job will land her the next reporter position in her agency as this is set in the 1900s, there are not many women on the job. It was cute to watch her and the writer fall in love and see the way everything ends up panning out in the end. Charolette must re-evaluate everything in her life and chose which road to take--the moral high ground, or the potential reporting job. Overall, a pleasant book and one I'll be happy to pass on to someone else!
