Before I Called You Mine

by Nicole Deese

Pub Date 31 Mar 2020

Bethany House, Bethany House Publishers

Romance

I am reviewing a copy of Before I Called You Mine through Bethany House Publishers and Netgalley:

Lauren Bailey is a romantic at heart but after a decade of matchmaking schemes gone wrong, there’s only one match she’s committed to now — the one that will make her a mother. Lauren is a dedicated first-grade teacher in Idaho, and her love for children has led her to the path of international adoption. To satisfy her adoption agency’s requirements, she gladly agreed to remain single for the foreseeable future; however, just as her long wait comes to an end, Lauren is blindsided by a complication she never saw coming: Joshua Avery.

Joshua is a a substitute teacher by day, but Lauren finds his passion for creating educational technology as fascinating as his antics in the classroom. Though she does her best to downplay the undeniable connection between them, his relentless pursuit of her heart puts her commitment to stay unattached to the test and causes her once-firm conviction to waver.

Lauren finds herself facing an impossible decision because saying yes to one May have to mean letting go of one another.

I give Before I Called You Mine five out of five stars!

Happy Reading!
