'David's Promise' by Polly Bolack was delightfully refreshing as light romance book.

The heroine is completely outrageous and continually finds herself in unusual predicaments.  She blithley carries on as if nothing is out of the ordinary.  As a matter of fact, she is determined to enact one outrageous deed a day.  She captains a boat named, 'The Outrageous Lady."  She is a minister's daughter that has refused to attend services.  Due to a recently uncovered secret in the attic she discovers that there is a mystery surrounding her birth.
 

The romantic male lead is a conservative trial lawyer that has recently decided to answer a delayed call to be a pastor.  He has a father figure in his life that's waiting with open arms to welcome him back into the law office.  He has also sworn to God to mend his philandering ways and abstain from all romantic involvements for a full year..... he even throws his little black book into a roaring fire!  Imagine his delight when he finds out the delightful red haired captain is his landlord!!

Then throw in this mix a wonderful aunt and uncle, a huge bird that keeps company with the lady captain, a boat caught out in the ocean next to a huge waterspout, an old rickety shelter built by the local Girl Scouts, a boat parade, a mad runaway iguana, and a homeless derelict that used to be a chef before hitting hard times...... WOW!  All I can say is that Lucy & Ricky Ricardo would be proud!  Slap stick comedy at its best. 

A perfect light romantic read.  Uplifting, romantically encouraging, and so funny you will be splitting from laughter. I hope to see more out of this author..... she's got a great funny bone
