Review: All That Really Matters

All That Really Matters All That Really Matters by Nicole Deese
My rating: 💛💛💛💛

Readers who enjoy contemporary fiction with character growth will love this book.

Molly is vibrant and takes on everything she does with zeal and passion, even though her motives might be a bit skewed. During her involvement with the young adults, she is faced with a few challenges on what is important and experience a few life changing revelations.

Silas, even though he was solid and grounded in his faith, had his own demons to face to truly live a life of forgiveness.

It was fun to see how Molly helped Silas to not take everything so seriously, and how Silas challenged Molly on her view on life and yes, what really matters!

I’m looking forward to the next book which will be about Miles, Molly’s twin and her PA/friend.

About the book:


Molly McKenzie's bright personality and on-trend fashion and beauty advice have earned her an impressive social media following, as well as a big paycheck each month. When her manager-turned-boyfriend says she has an audition to appear as a host on a makeover show that nominates underprivileged youth, her dream of further fame seems to be coming true. There's just one catch: she has little experience interacting with people in need.

When her manager-boyfriend convinces her to partner with a local organization, she begins volunteering with a summer youth program. The program's director, Silas Whittaker, challenges her at every turn, but she swiftly grows more attached to the kids--and him--every day.

As Molly experiences an acceptance unlike anything she's known, she wrestles with the lies she's been believing about herself for years. She thought she knew what mattered most in life, but maybe she's had it wrong this whole time, and there's more to being truly seen than what she's built her entire life on.

About the author:



Nicole Deese's eight humorous, heartfelt, and hope-filled novels include the 2017 Carol Award-winning A Season to Love. Her 2018 release, A New Shade of Summer, was a finalist in the RITA Awards, Carol Awards, and INSPY Awards. Both of these books are from her bestselling Love in Lenox series. When she's not working on her next contemporary romance, she can usually be found reading one by a window overlooking the inspiring beauty of the Pacific Northwest. She lives in small-town Idaho with her happily-ever-after hubby, two rambunctious sons, and princess daughter with the heart of a warrior.
