ABOUT THE BOOK

Jagears Delivers a Wonderfully Romantic Read with a Hero and Heroine to Cheer For
Evelyn Wisely has a heart for the orphans of Teaville and works at a local mansion that rescues children out of the town's red-light district and gives them a place to live. But her desire to help isn't limited to orphans. The owner of the mansion, Nicholas Lowe, is willing to help her try to get the women working in prostitution out of the district as well - if she can gain the cooperation and support of local businessmen to go against the rest of the community.

David Kingsman has recently arrived in Teaville from Kansas City to help with one of his father's companies in town. While he plans on staying only long enough to prove his business merit to his father, he's shown interest in Evelyn's work and is intrigued enough by her to lend his support to her cause.

They begin with the best of intentions, but soon the complications pile up and Evelyn and David's dreams look more unattainable every day. When the revelation of a long-held secret creates a seemingly insurmountable rift between them, can they trust God still has a good plan for them despite all that is stacked against them?

~ MY REVIEW ~
**5 stars**

Beautiful, delightful, tender, and sweet, I loved it! There was something real and heart-touching about A Love So True by Melissa Jagears, second book in the TEAVILLE MORAL SOCIETY series. I adored it even more than Book One, and can hardly wait to continue to read about the people of Teaville!

Orphans. Secrets. Prostitutes. Safe homes. Regretful pasts. Charming newcomer. ... And a whole new chapter waiting to be opened up to Evelyn Wisely.

Oh, David. He is a charmer, yes, but beyond that is his compassionate nature and truly loyal and steadfast heart. I felt he was a such a unique and wonderful character, who persistently and sweetly pursued Evelyn despite the cool front she put on.
Evelyn was a dear. Her tireless work and real compassion for the needy and hurting of her community was admirable and humbling. As well as her faithful heart. She's tall, sturdy, and determined, but a sweet soul underneath it all. I loved going on this poignant and so very beautiful journey with her!

I was so happy to see characters from A Heart Most Certain! What fun! They are doing well and ever their lovely selves! ^_^ Meeting new people, and learning still more about this town of Teaville was a delight. Yes, their are some harsh realities and sober things mentioned/shown ... but I can't help but fall in love with the brave and gentle heroes and heroines of Teaville.

Read this book in one day, my friends, it was that good! Perhaps different from the average Christian historical romance, perhaps not. But A Love So True had little things about it that just made it a gem to me. The faith theme was so beautiful, for one! These characters were real in their relationships with God.

I simply can't wait to read book three, A Chance at Forever! Melissa Jagears is an author I will continually look out for for new books!
