Publisher Description
2012 Christy Award finalist, Contemporary romance category.
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?
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Warren, a former missionary to Russia and the author of 30 novels, offers a lighthearted, punchy story about two wounded souls who find love and a new lease on life over radio airwaves. Isadora Presley is Miss Foolish Heart, a radio talk show host, by night, and no one but her closest friend and producer knows it. Scarred emotionally by seeing her mother die in a car accident, Issy has panic attacks whenever she contemplates stepping outside the bounds of her yard. When Caleb Knight moves next door, Issy is cautiously curious and soon begins to fall for her handsome neighbor. Caleb has his own inner demons to fight after a harrowing stint in Iraq. Coming between these two characters is Miss Foolish Heart herself. Warren's novel nicely balances the funny and realistic.
Customer Reviews
A beautiful story of hope, redemption, and love.
I was hooked on this story from the first few chapters. The themes and wise words of grace made me teary eyed at points and I’m not a big cryer. This book helped me realize that I am lovable despite all of my struggles, flaws, and my past. This book made me smile a kick my feet lol. The pure love that the characters shared brought me hope that I’ve struggled to have. Jesus really spoke to me through this book. My foolish heart is a hands down 5 stars for me. This is my first book by this author and I will DEFINITELY be reading more. This book was also one of the first books that I’ve read since I’ve been back into reading and it just made me fall back in love with it. It’s an easy read that I finished in less than a week. Highly recommend!!
