    Doesn't anyone feel she's worth their time?

    Routinely ignored by her single mother, high school senior Lindsey Hamilton hides her loneliness behind a mask of flirtatious self-confidence that has many boys wrapped around her finger. However, during community service required for graduation, she meets a shy guy with a haunted past who barely gives her the time of day. Why doesn't he like her?

    Then the father she thought had abandoned her before birth wants to meet, and she discovers everything she believed about him is a lie.

    How will Lindsey learn to trust so she can realize that she has been loved all along?

      Being a teenager is hard. Being a Christian teenager with convictions is even harder. In Worth the Wait, Laura Jackson shows how living for Christ is possible in spite of difficult circumstances and ridicule. I loved the friendships between Ellie and the twins. I also loved the theme of finding your identity and wholeness in Christ before becoming involved in romantic relationships. There are so many great messages of love and hope in these pages. My only criticism is that it seemed a little preachy at times which broke the flow of the story. I think the author could have gotten the essence of the message across in a more natural way that stayed in tune with the tone of the story.I received a free copy from netgalley in exchange for an honest review.
