Stay with Me

Stay With Me is the first novel in Becky Wade’s new Misty River series. If you have ever read a Becky Wade book, you will certainly love this one. It is filled with all the things that make Wade an award-winning writer: classic banter between the characters, humor, love, and a heart touching spiritual message. If you haven’t read a Becky Wade book, since this is the first book in the series it is a perfect place to start. I was taken in immediately by the characters in this story. First, Sam and Genevieve have professions that are not the most common ones that we read in a romance novel. Second, they are both encumbered with a load of secrets. What a weight they both are trying to carry on their own! I was engaged in their story from the first entertaining meeting of the two to the very last page. Becky Wade handles some heavy topics in this book , but she handles them well. I felt respect and hope was given for people who struggle with similar things. I loved the inclusion of characters who forgive and continue to love anyway despite the mistakes committed by others. The story was brought to a satisfying conclusion, one that brought a few tears, but was full of grace. I highly recommend this latest book by Becky Wade. I received a copy of this book from the publisher. All opinions expressed are my own.
