Lauryn is a fashion designer in New York, who designs outwear for a wonderful woman, Jacqueline Yvonne and her design house. She loves her job, but lately she feels her dream of having her own line of modest evening wear is slipping away, and her love life has taken a painful hit. So, when the opportunity arrives for her to move to another design house to do her own evening line, she takes it, inspite of all she's heard about its name sake, Laszlo Molnar.
Young ladies will love this story. It's cute. It's built on the love of good friends and faith in God. It's promoted as a romancy, love story and that certainly plays a part of the story, but the real plot centers on Lauryn seizing her dream and working to make it a reality inspite of Molnar's evil plans.
The drawbacks of the story for me are that Lauryn is a bit too perfect and her blessings are a bit too miraculous while her struggles are glossed over. Don't get me wrong, Lauryn was a loveable, strong protagonist but the story plays to a teen's tendency to believe that everything will work out if you just try hard enough and while Lauryn is a wonderful role model, reality is sorely lacking.
