All That Really Matters

Publisher's summary

Molly McKenzie's bright personality and on-trend fashion and beauty advice have earned her an impressive social-media following, as well as a shiny monthly paycheck. When her manager-turned-boyfriend tells her of an upcoming audition to host a makeover show for America's underprivileged youth, all her dreams finally seem to be coming true. There's just one catch: She has little experience interacting with people in need.

To gain an edge on her competitors, she applies to volunteer at a transitional program for aged-out foster kids during summer, only the program's director, Silas Whittaker, doesn't find her as charming as her followers do. But since forfeiting a goal has never been her style, Molly's only option is to accept the terms Silas lays out and submit to his rules - even the most ridiculous ones pertaining to social media.

Soon as the residents of the home become more than a means to pad her career resume, and Silas becomes more than an obstacle on her path to fame, her once-narrow focus expands to include the deep needs of those she's serving...and perhaps the ones she's neglected inside herself as well. It took years to build her platform, but only one summer to discover what really matters most.

BEAUTIFUL book

Really enjoyed the story, so real and I finished this in one day - I couldn’t stop listening. So worth it!

A worthy read

I couldn't put this book down. it kept my attention with every turn and twist. it was filled with faith, romance, and all sorts of emotion. Some characters I hated, others I wanted to reach in and comfort, and others I could identify with on many levels. I highly recommend this book.

So enjoyable and inspiring!

Wow, Nicole! I’m so impressed by your writing skills. Couldn’t wait to get back to listening to this book. So much to it and very inspiring! 💛 kept me guessing with the twists and turns too. Keep it up!

What A Great Story!

This story was fantastic! I couldn't put it down. The characters were relatable and likable as they faced challenges. There was humor, fun banter, seriousness, and wonder. I didn't want it to end! I need a sequel.

You crushed it!

This book is exemplary. A step up from every inspirational author I’ve been reading lately, and they’re some very good ones. I will definitely be looking for more. I loved the dual narration, too. It’s the first one I’ve seen in Christian fiction. Keep them coming.

Really great!

Very engaging, good plot, good character development. It flowed nicely and was clean but not preachy. I will be looking for more of this author!

Great wholesome love story!

Loved it from beginning to end! Didn't want it to end! Can't wait for the follow up!!🤩

Deliverance from self absorption

This story is a great look at how the online social media sites are not an adequate replacement for true in person relationships. And a life only focused on what enriches ones self fails to satisfy in the long run. Sharing and caring has great rewards for those who give as well as those who receive.

Amazing.

This book seemed like it was going to be stereotypical in every sense, but it wasn’t. I had already had the storyline pegged from the beginning of the book and boy was I wrong. Most of the time I assumed something was going to happen and it didn’t. A couple of aspects of the book you are able to predict, but that’s completely okay because it wasn’t cheesy. I loved all the characters both main and side. And the back stories were just.. ❤️.. This book was really able to make me feel my feelings and a plus was that it kept me close to God through the read.
