Synopsis:~
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?
My take:~
Susan May Warren always produces the goods and while I don’t think My Foolish Heart is the best book she has ever written, it provides all the great things her stories entail ~ engaging characters, an adorable town, conflict, attraction and overcoming the odds. Caleb’s struggle with his disability and Issy’s PTSD enables Susan to delve into the heartache that comes from physical and mental trauma and the hard road towards wholeness from a spiritual and emotional perspective. My Foolish Heart combines tender romance with deep human struggles and is a delightful read. I hope Susan returns to Deep Haven again!

Nice review. Saw this on Twitter and had to hop over. My Foolish Heart is the first book I read by Susan, and I thought it was so charming! I then read her LI series, Missions of Mercy, and discovered that I have two of her books in my summer TBR pile. Yay!
