Book Summary (Amazon):
After a devastating heartbreak three years ago, genealogist and historical village owner Nora Bradford has decided that burying her nose in her work and her books is far safer than romance in the here and now.
Unlike Nora, former Navy SEAL and Medal of Honor recipient John Lawson is a modern-day man, usually 100 percent focused on the present. But when he's diagnosed with an inherited condition, he's forced to dig into the secrets of his past and his adoption as an infant, enlisting Nora to help him uncover the identity of his birth mother.
The more time they spend together, the more this pair of opposites suspects they just might be a perfect match. However, John's already dating someone and Nora's not sure she's ready to trade her crushes on fictional heroes for the risks of a real relationship. Finding the answers they're seeking will test the limits of their identity, their faith, and their devotion to one another.
My thoughts...
When I saw that Becky Wade had a new series coming out, I was so excited! I have thoroughly enjoyed reading all of her books so far, and hoped this new series would still include the things I love: interesting plot line, romantic tension, and well constructed characters. Oh yes...you'll get all that good stuff in True to You! Not to mention another gorgeous cover!
I love Nora's character. I got a little more background from reading the novella prequel, Then Came You, but you can still read True to You as a stand alone and get her story. A lot of who Nora is was shaped by a tragic past, but also by a hopeful future with her family and relationship with God. She's portrayed as down to earth, joking with her sister about her attraction to John Lawson but never seeing it go anywhere. The honesty and humor kept the reading fun. John is also a complex character whose outward appearance portrays him as tough and disciplined with his military background, but you also see a vulnerable side....which makes him even more attractive. : )
Once again, Becky Wade has won me over and I can't wait to see what's going to happen with the rest of the Bradford sisters! I definitely recommend this one!
**I received a free copy of this book from the publisher to express my honest opinions, which I have.**
