Wonderful First Novel!



My Stubborn Heart by Becky Wade is a great book particularly since it is Wade's first novel.
Kate Donovan began praying in the fourth grade for her future husband, but in her thirty one years of life he still hasn't appeared.
Matt Jarreau's Mom had been praying for him, too, more than ever since life had appeared to deal him an exceptionally cruel hand. She prayed God would help him heal and send him a new love.
Enter Gran, Kate's Grandmother, who offers Kate the opportunity to help renovate her family home in Redbud, Pennsylvania. At almost the same time Kate decides she's tired of it all, in particular her social work job. Gran has also hired Matt to assist with items too large for her and Kate to handle.
Kate realizes Matt has retreated from life.  But, she is too stubborn to give up on her goal to reintroduce him to living.
Throw in some feisty, eccentric and in some cases love hungry seniors, friends of Gran, and you have a perfect recipe for matchmaking fun.
Overall, I really enjoyed the book as it was easy to relate to and get lost in the story.
This book was provided to me by Bethany House in exchange for an unbiased opinion.
