Falling for You by Becky Wade

Famously beautiful model Willow Bradford is taking a temporary break from her hectic schedule to work as the innkeeper at her family's small-town bed-and-breakfast. She was enjoying the peace of her hometown, Merryweather, Washington, right up until she came face-to-face with Corbin Stewart, the man she loves to hate. A thoughtful rule-follower by nature, Willow threw caution to the wind four years ago when she entrusted her heart to Corbin--and suffered the consequences when it all fell apart.

Former NFL quarterback Corbin is forceful, charming, and accustomed to getting what he wants . . . except where Willow Bradford is concerned. Unable to forget her, he's never stopped regretting what happened between them. When their paths unexpectedly cross again, he's determined to make her give him a second chance.

When a decades-old missing persons case finds Corbin and Willow working together, they're forced to confront their past and who they've become--and whether they can risk falling for one another all over again.

Falling for You is the second novel in Becky Wade's new series Bradford Sisters Romance, but it is perfectly possible to read this novel on its own. The first novel follows Nora's romance, and this second book focuses on Willow, her older sister. I found this novel to be very enjoyable, with a side mystery that initially forces Corbin and Willow to work together as well as flash backs to Corbin and Willow's past relationship as they begin to work through the issues that initially separated them before. I thought that Willow's changes in heart and what perfection really means as a child of God were critical to the story and important for everyone to understand in their own lives. At the same time, it was neat to see Corbin as a new Christian begin to work through his own sins and flaws and him realizing it was only through God's strength that he could do that. I loved still seeing John and Nora and also getting a taste for Britt's story in the next novel as she also had some sections in this novel where she was the focus. Overall, I love this series, and I cannot wait to read the next installment. 

I received this novel from Bethany House through Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.
