My Stubborn Heart- by Becky Wade
Becky Wade out did herself with My Stubborn Heart. I was so engrossed in Becky Wade's Romance novel that it only took me a day to read it. I had to find out what was going to take place next. I visualized that I was there as one of the friends getting to see it all unfold.
Kate who is in her 30's has dated several men and still hasn't met Mr. Right. She is still waiting for that special one guy who she has been praying for since the 4th grade. She is starting to wonder if she will ever met him or if she did meet him, she just didn't notice. Kate lives in Dallas Texas, who is a children's social worker at her job. Kate was starting to feel restless with her job and the men she had been dating for a while now. She was thrilled when her grandmother invited her to go with her on a trip to Redbud, Pennsylvania.
Matt a famous soccer player. lost his wife to brain cancer/ He has shut the door to everyone including family and friends along with his soccer career. Matt has no social life doesn't want one, he just wants to be left alone, he works renovating old houses, eats frozen food at home, goes to the gym, and stays home. Kate sees her gran talking to a very looking young man who gran hired to renovate her house and who happens to be Matt. She keep starring at him, she and studying him. She couldn't believe how very good looking he is and wonders is he the guy shes been waiting for. Matt was all business a usual and didn't seem to notice her at all except to say hi when gran introduced her granddaughter to him. When Matt showed up the next day to pain Kate was already dress to him paint. Matt was not to thrilled about that he liked doing things himself without any help. He certainly didn't need Kate getting in his way. However, she was his client and Kate wasn't taking no for an answer. Kate kept wanting to talk, Matt tried ignoring her, all he wanted to do was his job and get out. Matt did soften up a little to Kate after a few days, he did leave out a few minor details about his life. Kate and her gran still didn't have a clue who Matt really was until one of grands friends came over and told them. Matt even started coming over for dinner and letting gran teach him how to cook. He even played poker with Kate and grans friends on Friday nights after dinner. Matt and Kate seemed to be getting closer where Matt was hoping that Kate would not have to go back to Dallas; that she cared enough about him to stay in Redbud. Kate was asking God one day if He wanted her and Matt to get closer and she heard God say no. Kate didn't know what to think about what she heard. She had these feelings for Matt and was hoping he was actually the one she had been praying for. When Matt saw Kate he asked if she would stay or if she couldn't he would move to Dallas to be near her. Kate said no that he needed to start playing soccer again, that deep down she knew that he still loved the game. Matt couldn't believe this was happening. After he lost his wife he never thought he could feel this way again. He didn't want to lose Kate and wasn't sure how to keep that from happening.
I am really looking forward to reading more of Becky Wades novels.
