Christian Fiction Book Review : Love in the Details by Becky Wade

About the Book

She left him to save his future, but they’ve never gotten over each other.

When Josh returns to his hometown of Martinsburg, Texas, to help his best friend get married, he didn’t intend to run into church wedding coordinator—and ex-girlfriend—Holly. He can’t help but pine after the girl he never got over.

Holly broke up with Josh years ago in an attempt to ensure his future success. But she loved him then and still loves him now. As she helps him plan his best friend’s wedding, she can’t help but feel horrible for the pain she caused him. And even though she longs to be with Josh, she doesn’t feel worthy of his big-time lifestyle when she is more comfortable in her small town world. Will Josh and Holly be able to keep things as they are when their true feelings threaten to surface at every turn?

My Thoughts

This is definitely a romantic story about two people who still love each other but circumstances (read mother) have torn them apart. It’s short but very sweet and I finished it in a day. I love Becky’s writing style because by writing in the first person from each main character’s point of view (I hope I wrote that correctly) is very effective to draw you in emotionally. Even if you are screaming at them to get it together.

The small town plot works very well in this story. Quiet nerd makes it big is not so far fetched as I’ve known a few of those in real life.

Usually short novels rush too much and you never have a chance to get into the storyline but with the back story of these two characters already knowing each other we’re able to head right into a good story

I was thoroughly entertained (and it had me looking for more Becky Wade books).

This contemporary Christian fiction is just perfect for a cozy read by the fire.

You can pick up a copy of Love in the Details on Amazon.
