Book Review: A Love Like Ours by Becky Wade

After reading and thoroughly enjoying the first two of Becky Wade's Porter Family series, I knew I wanted a chance to read her story about the third Porter brother, Jake.

I was not disappointed. This book kept me reading under my covers when I should have been sleeping. Becky Wade knows how to weave description and thought and dialogue and plot all together so that you don't WANT to skip any paragraphs. She also knows how to write romance. I found humor, tension, passion, difficulty, and a satisfying conclusion.

I did find it so odd how two people can be pursuing a relationship and have these passionate kisses and yet one character is telling herself it'll be okay as long as she doesn't fall in love. What??? That doesn't make Christian sense to me. What is the purpose of physical affection if it is not hand-in-hand with some level of commitment, preferably a trajectory of life-long commitment?

But that's a whole other post!

I received a free copy of  A Love Like Ours from Bethany House Publishers in exchange for an honest review.
