Meant to Be Mine Book Review

The second book in the series is Meant to Be Mine by Becky Wade.  It was new on the library shelf and I was super glad to see it while at another branch of the library so that I could have the chance to read it.  I was excited to read the first book in the series and get to pick this up right after.

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?

This was an amazing story about Ty Porter and Celia Park who grew up in a small Texas town together.  Ty was a hot shot around the school and Celia fell for him when she sat next to him in school but they were only friends.  After being apart for many years, they run into each other again and things spark but he whirlwind romance leaves them in Vegas at a wedding chapel.  They were married that night and wake up in the morning with different thoughts on the subject.  They leave Vegas and don't speak for 5 and half years.  Ty comes back to talk to Celia and finds out so much more then he thought when he meets her daughter.  There is no question who the father is but a paternity test confirms that Ty is now responsible for a little girl that he hasn't had the chance to know for 5 years.  The relationship between mother and daughter is strong and she is excited to find her father and get to know him.  You have to make sure you pick up this book to find out how they work to forgive each other for the past and move forward to their new life with their daughter.  I think that you might be surprised at some of the fast changes that happen.  I hope that you check out this book and others in this wonderful series.  I know that you will enjoy the characters and writing as much as I have.  I am super glad that the library got the first two books in the series so that I could finish a series that I had read the third and forth book and really enjoyed.  I hope that you enjoy these as much as I have!!
