Hello Everyone :)
Thanks so much for joining me today on the Preppy Book Princess.
I recently finally got to read a novella from one of my all time favorite series, The Porter Family series by Becky Wade.
And today I'd like to share with you all my thoughts and opinions on it.
The Proposal by Becky Wade
Source: Free Kindle Read
Publication Date: December 4th, 2015
Genre: Inspirational Fiction
Synopsis:
A cold night in Texas, a dream of marriage, a happily ever after....
Single mom Amber Richardson spends every holiday season working to give her young son the best Christmas possible and striving to ignore the empty chairs around her table, chairs she wishes her mother and father and extended family occupied.
She'd hoped that this holiday would be fuller and happier than the rest. Her handsome firefighter boyfriend, Will McGrath, has brought immeasurable joy and love into her life. Up until recently, they'd even been talking about a future that included wedding bells. Lately, though, the wedding talk has been nonexistent and Amber can’t help but worry that Will's starting to have second thoughts....
Until a fire station surprise brings very good tidings.

My Review:
The Proposal is a fairly short novella about two of the side character's from Becky's Porter Family series, Amber and Will. Amber is a character that was introduced in the first book, and I'd immediately taken a liking to her, and the way she's trying her best to get her life back on track for both her own sake and the sake of her young son, Jayden. Will came into the stories later on, when Amber meets him and begins dating him, and I'm so thankful that Becky decided to give them a short story of their own, and it definitely did not disappoint.
In the short amount of pages included in this novella, the reader is treated to a first hand view of the elaborate proposal that Will has planned for Amber, and her resulting reaction. It was sweet and adorable, and really demonstrated both how Will and Amber are truly compatible, and also, how they've both relied heavily on their Heavenly Father to get to this point in their lives, and their relationship. I also really enjoyed the way that Becky brought in some back story about why Amber's family situation was the way it was, and how Will was determined to help her move past the past, and embrace the future.
All in all, while this story was short, it was also sweet, heartwarming, and compelling, and I gave it four out of five stars. I've yet to be disappointed in anything that Becky has written, and that was once again the case here. I loved Amber and Will's happy ending, and how many of the beloved characters from the main books make an appearance, and I highly recommend reading this if you've read the rest of the beloved Porter Family series.
Thanks so much for reading guys! Have a great rest of your week, and I'll see you all again soon for more bookish content.
