Publisher's summary

She moved to Sandwich, Illinois, in search of a new life but ended up in a giant pickle. Sandwich represents hope for 20-year-old Maddie Buckner and Kyle, the 11-year-old brother Maddie wants to spring out of foster care. Then she loses her new job after less than an hour on the clock. It’s all Reuben the Jerk’s fault, and she’s determined to make him right the wrong. He does so, reluctantly, by giving her a job at his restaurant, The Sandwich Shop. Then crazy things start happening at the restaurant, and Kyle’s foster parents apply to adopt him. To stop it all, Maddie must learn the art of humbling herself and accepting the help God has arranged, risking her heart to Reuben in the process. And she’d rather eat a million corned beef on rye sandwiches than do that.

Critic reviews

"Don’t let the light-hearted cover and title fool you. Krista Phillips’ spunky, rough-around-the-edges heroine may be 'tickle me' funny, but her faith journey offers more than a cute read. There is depth here, made all the more satisfying served up with a generous side of romance." (Tamara Leigh, author of Restless in Carolina and Dreamspell)
"Krista Phillips' book is much like a submarine sandwich - multi-layered and loaded with tasty delights. There's a little something for everyone: a light, quirky opening, and an ending that packs a punch. Yum!" (Janice Thompson, author of the Weddings by Bella series)
"Krista Phillips is a unique and entertaining new voice in contemporary Christian romance. She brings a fresh, young perspective to the genre and left me eager to read whatever she writes next." [Kaye Dacus, author of Stand-In Groom (Christy Award Finalist 2010), The Brides of Bonneterre series, and The Matchmaker series]

Loved this Book

Beautifully written story that is at times funny, sarcastic, traumatic but real. Although it's fiction the story comes to life in my heart and mind. Please write and release others in Audible. Loved it.

LOVE LOVE LOVE ❤️ LOVE 💕

I found this book refreshingly funny. The main character is REAL and comes to life. Her relationship with God is obtainable for people real people. What an AMAZING story. I am just upset that this writer only has ONE audio book. Which means I can’t listen to her others because I am working and can’t stop to actually read. Please do your other books. I share all of my good reads with the other women who do what I do. AP

Loved

This was such a great book. I couldn't stop listening. Several reviews commented on the main characters relationship with God. I found the take to be real, not offensive. She was a new believer and it was an honest portrayal of questions, doubts, fears and misconceptions.
Very clean, Christian book with a lot of heart. Highly recommend.

this was a fun spicy but not overly sexual story

I really enjoy this book. I was very happy to hear a lot of spiritual gems being dropped, and it was a nice sweet story that had just enough dramatics and spice to keep it interesting. I really like the second chance aspect too.
