Publisher's Description

Grief brought high school senior Finley Sinclair to Ireland. Love will lead her home.

Eighteen-year-old Finley Sinclair is witty, tough, talented, and driven. With an upcoming interview at the Manhattan music conservatory, she just needs to finish composing her audition piece. But her creativity disappeared with the death of her older brother, Will.

She decides to take a break and study abroad, following Will’s travel journal to Ireland. Her brother felt closest to God there, and she hopes to find peace about his death. Meanwhile, Beckett Rush—teen heartthrob and Hollywood bad boy—is flying to Ireland to finish filming his latest vampire movie. On the flight, he bumps into Finley—the one girl who seems immune to his charm. Undeterred, Beckett convinces Finley to strike an unconventional bargain.

As Finley deals with the loss of her brother, the pressures of school, and her impending audition, she wonders if an unlikely romance is blossoming between her and Beckett. Then she experiences something that radically changes her perspective on life. Has everything she’s been looking for been with her all along?

Ireland’s rolling green hills and quaint villages become a setting for a vampire movie in There You’ll Find Me, a romance novel by Jenny B. Jones. The main character, a Miss Finley Sinclair, travels to Ireland after her brother’s death in Afghanistan. She wants to fill the void left by his death; she wants to follow in his footsteps and find God. But her situation becomes complicated when she meets Mr. Beckett Rush, an alarmingly attractive actor and infamous Hollywood “wild child.” Her soul’s black hole grows quickly as she slowly falls for him.

The story is told in first person. The entire world readers enter is filtered by her eyes, but, on random occasions, she’ll make a connection or have a thought that is absolutely hilarious, and readers know the author is speaking. The writing is enjoyable, not just for the comedy, but also for the smooth, liquid flow that is maintained throughout the book. The relationship between Beckett and Finley is like the waters off the rocky west coast of Ireland. The water rushes into the rocks, but the fickle tide draws it back out into a troubled sea over and over again. One scene that I will never forget is when Finley visits a pair of sisters, the town gossips, and they cannot agree on anything. My stomach almost split with laughter while reading this scene.

In the simplest sense, There You’ll Find Me is the story of Finley Sinclair’s search for God. Complications are commonplace in life, but with Finley they seem to be in abundance. Her relationship with Beckett Rush is a major complication, but in the end it is not her decision concerning him that reveals the purpose of the book. It is her decision concerning Mrs. Sweeney, a woman she loathes.

Finley suffers with depression caused by her brother’s death. She is naturally loyal to her friends and has a short temper with her enemies. She constantly denies her own difficulties, a little bit to herself, but most of the time to others, particularly those who care about her.

There are three characters whom Finley interacts with who change her or influence her decisions in significant ways. The first is her mentor, Sister Maria, one of the few people with whom Finley is comfortable talking. Sister Maria gently prods Finley toward good decisions.

Finley’s relationship with Beckett is what places this novel in the romance genre. At first she does not trust him. In fact, she despises him. Eventually, despite what seems her better judgment, she agrees to help him run through his movie lines. This is the start of their complicated relationship. In spite of Finley’s doubt of his character, Beckett turns out to be a kind man who is tired of his playboy reputation and wants what Finley has, a chance at a normal life. He helps Finley confront her fears, and he genuinely cares for her.

Finley’s relationship with Mrs. Sweeney, an old lady of perpetual frowns, is, in my opinion, her most important one. To say it bluntly, they do not like each other. During the course of the book, a change occurs in the relationship, and Finley tries to fix Mrs. Sweeney’s problems. Through that effort, she slowly realizes her own problems need attention. This relationship is the hardest and the best for Finley.

The Bible verse, found in Mathew 11:28, where Jesus says, “Come to me all you who are weary and burdened and I will give you rest,” is relevant to how Finley obtaines the strength to overcome her fears and to make a final, touching decision. I put down this book with a laughter-lined face and an encouraged soul. Jones interweaves humor and wit so skillfully that I laughed most of the way through it and learned some valuable lessons at the same time. Anyone who is tired of sappy love stories will enjoy this romance novel, if only for the laughs. Truly, I believe anyone could enjoy this book, and I recommend it. – Joshua Spotts, www.ChristianBookPreviews.com
