A Love Like Ours by Becky Wade – book review

0 Flares Filament.io 0 Flares ×

My to-be-read list is quite full this month since we wrapped up school. I was out of town for several days when we took the 6th graders on a camping trip.  Being at a camp with 240 6th graders isn’t really conducive to reading a relaxing novel.  So when I got home and recovered, it was time to play catch up. Just so you know, I received this books to review. The post may contain affiliate links; opinions shared are mine.  I had been reading this cute romance by Becky Wade – A Love Like Ours – and bookmarked it just before we left for camp.  We’d been basically living out of the van for a few weeks in between school, the ball field, and home, so I thought the book was in the car.  After a frantic search for it, I finally found it on the kitchen counter.  Sigh.  You know it’s a good book when there’s a frantic search for it, right?   A Love Like Ours - book review savingsinseconds.com
A Love Like Ours  takes us back to the Porter Family (this is book 3 in the series).  The theme of lost love is revisited, except this time the scenario is much different. Instead of Ty’s sky-high success, we encounter Jake’s PTSD.  Lyndie’s bubbly heart is irresistible.  You can’t help but love her, and want to hug Jake.  We also get to see a little bit more of Ty and Celia, which is fun!   Author Becky Wade is so attuned to her characters that she lets the reader see right into Lyndie’s thoughts. It was like I could hear Lyndie’s voice thinking out loud as I read.  The humor is so subtle that it’s easy to miss, but it’s cute when you catch it.  Mentions of P. Diddy and Orville Redenbacher comparisons sound like comments my friends and I might make in jest.   The true message of the story, though, was a beautiful reminder that the past is in the past.  Are you singing Let It Go yet?  You should be, because A Love Like Ours echoes that sentiment loud and clear. Let go of the things that burden your heart.  Give them to God, embrace his grace, and that peace will surpass your understanding.

Fall in love with Becky Wade’s new book, A Love Like Ours, a story of healing, romance, and cowboys. A glimmer of the hope Jake thought he’d lost returns when Lyndie lands back in Texas, but fears and regrets still plague him. Will Jake ever be able to love Lyndie like she deserves, or is his heart too shattered to mend?

    My daughter was just telling me a verse from the Bible she loves, and it sounds like it fits this book. “Give all your worries and cares to God, for he cares about you.” Letting go is a good message to have, and it sounds like this book writes it well.
