A Match Made in Texas

I been looking forward to reading this book and this series of CHATAM HOUSE . And I enjoyed the story the characters are telling me too.

Great read!

I really loved this book! In the beginning of the book you meet Kaylie. She is a pediatric nurse who has quit her job in order to take care of her father who had a heart attack six months ago. She is asked by her 3 spinster aunts to come to their mansion at her earliest convenience. It is there that she meets Stephen a very injured hockey player for the blades. He is in need of a nurse and her aunts think she is the right woman for the job. As the book progresses you learn that Stephan has a painful past and is in need of not only Gods forgiveness, but he needs to forgive himself. Kaylie struggles with trying to take care of her father, who is becoming more and more demanding although, he really can do for himself. She is spread thin with trying to divide her time between her father, and Stephen. Her father has lost not one but two wives and seems to be a very angry man who is afraid of being alone. Because of this he continues to tell Kaylie that God calls some people to singleness. Kaylie struggles with this because she longs to be a wife and mother. As time goes on Kaylie finds herself having feelings for Stephen but asking God why it has to be a man who is so unlike the person she would imagine for herself. This is a great story of love, forgiveness, and learning to follow God's plan not the plans others may have. The characters were extremely likable and really developed through out the book. I found myself being able to relate to them as well as their struggles. It is a must read!
