Books like Love Worth Finding (Heartsong Presents #657) by Cathy Marie Hake
Della Valentine—runaway bride shop owner—has witnessed fairy‑tale weddings until she meets Brandon Stevens, a former Navy SEAL. Their starkly different worlds—she, pink and frilly, him, gruff and military—draw them together. Brandon, disciplined by duty, feels a pull toward Della that awakens a longing to protect and guide her. Yet when he finds God, he realizes they cannot be "unequally yoked" unless they share faith. Facing this dilemma, Brandon wrestles with the weight of devotion to his Savior versus the desire to share a life with Della. The story follows Della as she confronts the nature of love, faith, and whether her heart can combine romance with a devotion to the Lord.
