My Foolish Heart

Thank you to LitFuse Publishing Group for providing this book in exchange for my review. I was not required to post a positive review.

I was so excited to receive this book to review! Susan May Warren is one of my favorite authors. I love the way she writes and the characters that appear in her books. It doesn't hurt that she is from Minnesota as well. *grin* Her Deep Haven series is one of my current favorite series. This little Minnesota town reminds me of home and seems very real. I could really see some of the scenarios really happening. One neat thing about this series is that each book can stand on it's own. 


My Foolish Heart is a great story. So sweet! The characters all have to overcome so much. It's a bit over the top but in a good way. Isadora and Caleb were such great characters. They were fun and engaging. Despite being an amusing, incredible story I felt I could relate to them. They definitely don't have "everyone's life" but they are lovable and entertaining. These two definitely put a new spin on overcoming. I enjoyed getting peeks in to the lives of former characters of this series. Watch out, though, you may walk away with a huge donut craving after reading this book.  I think I almost read it in one sitting. Throw this one in your beach bag--it's a great summer read. The only disappointing thing is that I am now caught up on the series and don't have another one to read. 

About the book: My Foolish heart

Unknown to her tiny town of Deep Haven, Isadora Presley spends her nights as Miss Foolish Heart, the star host of a syndicated talk radio show. Millions tune in to hear her advice on dating and falling in love, unaware that she’s never really done either. Issy’s ratings soar when it seems she’s falling in love on-air with a caller. A caller she doesn’t realize lives right next door.

Caleb Knight served a tour of duty in Iraq and paid a steep price. The last thing he wants is pity, so he hides his disability and moves to Deep Haven to land his dream job as the high school football coach. When his beautiful neighbor catches his eye, in a moment of desperation he seeks advice from My Foolish Heart, the show that airs before his favorite sports broadcast. 

Before he knows it, Caleb finds himself drawn to the host—and more confused than ever. Is his perfect love the woman on the radio . . . or the one next door?
