Perfectly Arranged | Liana George



Short on clients and money, professional organizer Nicki Mayfield is hanging up her label maker. That is until the eccentric socialite Katherine O’Connor offers Nicki one last job.


Working together, the pair discovers an unusual business card among Ms. O’Connor’s family belongings that leads them on a journey to China.


There the women embark on an adventure of faith and self-discovery as they uncover secrets, truths, and ultimately, God’s perfectly arranged plans.




My Thoughts:


Happy and excited that I took a chance on this book! I was surprised to learn that this was a debut novel (and even more so to learn the second book is coming July 5th!). I'm a big fan of character growth being one of the strong points and this title hits every landmark with ease and a perfectly paced storyline.


Learning more about Beijing and China were a great addition and I felt immersed into the scenery. Even though I've never been, the descriptions wrap you up with all your senses. I found myself often admitting that I could relate to Nicki with her need for organization and control. But I loved her transition and picked up a few lessons that I could personally use!


The overall message is encouraging and inspirational, without being overwhelming or pushy. Looking forward to the second book!

Nicki’s tasked with making New Hope the perfect place for orphaned children. So why has everything gone wrong?


Six weeks after leaving China, Nicki Mayfield returns to complete two critical tasks: restore order at New Hope Orphanage and re-connect with Lei Ming, the little girl who stole her heart. However, a stonewalling supervisor, missing documents, and personal tragedy ensure Nicki faces challenges at every turn. Is she the best person to bring order – and longevity – to the place these children call home?


Then, with the help of an unexpected ally, Nicki makes a life-altering decision. One that has the potential to upend her well-planned life and the lives of those around her. Will she lose it all, or has she found a way to save what matters most?
