My Stubborn Heart

Bol

In an effort to restore the elegant house her grandmother grew up in, Kate finds herself being drawn to Matt, an ex-hockey player hired to help her renovate. When their stilted, uncomfortable interactions shift into something more, is God answering the longing of her heart--or asking her to give up more than she ever dreamed? "A feisty heroine, romance, and comedy make this a fabulous debut and Wade an author to follow."-- Library Journal Starred Review Kate Donovan is burned out on work, worn down by her dating relationships, and in need of an adventure. When her grandmother asks Kate to accompany her to Pennsylvania to restore the grand old house she grew up in, she jumps at the chance. Former hockey star Matt Jarreau has spent years hiding from people, from God, and from the heartbreak in his past. Confident that he's signing up for a straightforward construction job and nothing more, he agrees to help Kate and her grandmother renovate the house. Right away, however, he's submerged by complicated feelings as Kate sets her stubborn, persistent, optimistic heart on bringing him out of the dark and back into the light.
