Be still my heart! Boy oh boy oh boy! Lost of words for this newest romantic novel by a fan favorite, Becky Wade. True to You begins the Bradford Sisters Romance series with perfection. I love both Nora and John, as well as all the characters that so far made their presence.  Let's talk the romance first. What a sweet start. The humor will not be lost on booknerds who understand Nora's "quirks" wholeheartedly, as well as the little lapse of response when one hunky hero seem to appeared right out of the pages of your favorite period reads? The connection between our hero and heroine was just right, and I love the restraint both had since John was in a relationship at the start of the book. That connection was deepen by the mutual respect for each other, and their search for John's ancestry.

Next, the Bradford sisters. Their relationship reminds me of my sisters and I. Also a middle child, I feel connected with Nora, but it's their friendship and loyalty that hits a more personal note. I look forward to reading Willow and Britt's stories, and from what we've read so far in True to You, I think we've already gotten a glimpse into who they are.

"If two sisters exclude the third sister from juicy information, that's a serious infraction of the sisterly code. I might have to petition the court to grant me two new sisters." (115)

I also enjoyed the the journey Nora and John were on in searching for John's birth mother. The topic of adoption can be a tough topic to discuss, especially when we read the challenges of the past that connects our characters unexpectedly.  With that said, the message we get from True to You brings to light God's sovereign grace.

"What I've learned is. . .is that the past might be challenging and the future might be unsure. And that's okay. . . when we get to the future, God will be there. He'll supply whatever we need for each day.." (275)

Each of the letters and even the text messages added a lovely touch and really works so well with the story. In all, True to You spoke true of a person's self, acceptance of one's past and finding a love that makes your inside melt. Swoon-worthy for romance fans, emotional for fans that love a little substance, and light-hearted for those that enjoy romantic comedies, True to You will have a place for any kind of reader. And to end, I love how the author closed the book with a great verse. To end my review, I would love to also share the same scripture, reminding us to just trust. Nothing is too hard for our Lord.

"Ah, Sovereign Lord, you have made the heavens and the earth by your great power and outstretched arm. Nothing is too hard for you.." - Jeremiah 32:17
