Evelyn Wisely loves working at the local orphanage, but her
heart can't ignore the women of Teaville who are also in need. Her boss is
willing to help build a shelter for them, but only if she gains the cooperation
and financial support of other local businessmen.
While David Kingsman plans to stay in Teaville just long
enough to get his father's business back on solid ground, he's intrigued by
Evelyn's cause and finds himself more invested with each passing day.
Will their plans and partnership fall apart when confronted
with all that is stacked against them, or can they trust in God's plan despite
it all?
My Thoughts:
A Love So True by
author Melissa Jagears is the second in her series the Teaville Moral Society and is filled with just as much heart and
feeling as the first one. I really
enjoyed getting to know Evelyn Wisely better, what made her tick and what made
her so standoffish to men and opposed to marriage. I enjoyed her passion in her life’s work as she
struggled to better the lives of the children of prostitutes and how she tried
to help their mothers as well. She was a
most devoted daughter to her aging parents yet she carried a secret burden for
so long that she ended up closing herself off to the world.
David Kingsman was a hero that I thoroughly enjoyed reading
about. He was an all-around likable and
genuinely happy man. He was someone that
always seemed to see life as the cup is half full and you couldn’t help just
feeling better with the encounters you had with him. He stepped in when no one
else would, he understood things before others and I enjoyed watching his romantic
pursuit of Evelyn even when she was so standoffish with him. He was a wealthy man who definitely had
burdens of his own especially in his relationship with his father. On top of that, he could cook and he liked
to; the icing on the cake.
There were many ups and downs in this novel on the road to
true love, some that near broke my heart. But as I closed the book I did so with
a happy and contented sigh and a smile on my face. I look
forward to whatever adventure author Jagears sends our way next.
I received a copy of this book for free from the
publisher. I was not required to post a positive
review and all the views and opinions expressed are my own.
