Meant to Be Mine by Becky Wade

I honestly wasn't sure if I was going to like this book or not.  I went back and forth about it for awhile before I finally decided to read it.  I was not disappointed!  For some reason, I just connected to Celia and who she was.  I loved the theme of forgiveness as that is something I think everyone struggles with at different points in their life.  I enjoyed the story and about halfway through realized that it was the second in a series.  I had read the first book a while ago.  When I finished this book, the story stayed with me.  I ended up sharing about it with a coworker and she looked at the book as well.  Then I went back and read Undeniably Yours just to remember Meg and Bo's story.  I can't wait to read the next story that Becky Wade writes!

Here's a glimpse into the story.

Ty Porter has always been irresistible to Celia Park. All through high school--irresistible. When their paths cross again after college-- still irresistible. This time, though, Ty seems to feel exactly the same way about Celia. Their whirlwind romance deposits them at a street-corner Las Vegas wedding chapel.

The next morning they wake to a marriage certificate and a dose of cold reality. Celia's ready to be Ty's wife, but Ty's not ready to be her husband. He’s a professional bull rider, he lives on the road, and he’s long planned to settle down with the hometown girl he’s known since childhood.

Five and a half years pass. Celia's buried her dreams so that she can afford to raise her daughter. Ty's achieved all of his goals. Or thought he had, until he looks again into the eyes of the woman he couldn't forget and into the face of the child he never knew he had.

How much will Ty sacrifice to win back Celia’s trust and prove to her that their spontaneous marriage can still become the love of a lifetime?

I received this book for free from NetGalley.  I was not required to write a positive review for receiving this book.
