Review of "Undeniably Yours"

Rating: 4 Stars

~  ~  ~

Review: "Undeniably Yours" by Becky Wade is undeniably a Texas-style romance, complete with an oil heiress, cowboy hero, and a modern-day outlaw. Wade kicks off the Porter Family series with a novel about  love, trust, and opening oneself to God's will.  The characters are relevant and believable with distinct personalities.  Meg and Bo carry the plot, but are joined by an array of secondary and background characters. Most of the story is told from the third-person perspectives of Meg and Bo, but there are occasions when scenes are viewed from the perspective of  the "outlaw," Stephen. I was a little surprised when the plot switched to Stephen's point-of-view several chapters into the novel, but it showed his malice and greed, which ultimately helped me relate to Meg more.

Bo is the exact opposite of Stephen.  As a man of faith and integrity, he is the novel's hero with a western flair as evidenced by his cowboy hat and boots. Meg finds him charming and irresistible, and many readers will too. Despite their differences, love and respect blossoms easily between Meg and Bo. Amid Meg's emotional struggles, he is her protector and advocate. But, just when things seem to be falling into place perfectly for the couple, the plot picks up with some action.  The events are not completely unexpected, but I enjoyed the drama and the resolution.

"Undeniably Yours" offers glimpses of the Porter siblings that leave me pondering what the next books will hold and waiting for another visit to Texas.

Summary from Bethany House: When Meg Cole's father dies unexpectedly, she's forced to return home to Texas and to Whispering Creek Ranch to take up the reins of his empire. The last thing she has the patience or the sanity to deal with? Her father's Thoroughbred racehorse farm. She gives its manager, Bo Porter, six months to close the place down.

Bo knows he ought to resent the woman who's determined to take from him the only job he ever wanted. But instead of anger, Meg evokes within him a profound desire to protect. The more time he spends with her, the more he longs to overcome every obstacle that separates them and earn her love.

Just when Meg realizes she can no longer deny the depth of her feelings for Bo, their fragile bond is broken by a force from Meg's past. Can their relationship-and their belief that God can work through every circumstance-survive?
