The one woman he wants is the one he cannot have.
Former foster kid Sebastian Grant has leveraged his intelligence and hard work to become a pediatric heart surgeon. But not even his career success can erase the void he’s tried so hard to fill. Then he meets high school teacher Leah Montgomery and his fast-spinning world comes to a sudden stop. He falls hard, only to make a devastating discovery–Leah is the woman his best friend set his heart on months before.
Leah’s a math prodigy who’s only ever had one big dream–to earn her PhD. Raising her little brother put that dream on hold. Now that her brother will soon be college bound, she’s not going to let anything stand in her way. Especially romance . . . which is far less dependable than algebra.
When Leah receives surprising results from the DNA test she submitted to a genealogy site, she solicits Sebastian’s help. Together, they comb through hospital records to uncover the secrets of her history. The more powerfully they’re drawn to each other, the more strongly Sebastian must resist, and the more Leah must admit that some things in life–like love–can’t be explained with numbers.

Summary
Let it be Me by Becky Wade is the second book in the Misty River romance series. It was even better than the first one. I loved Sesbatian from the beginning and was anxiously awaiting his story. I enjoyed his back story and the man he has become. I thought he was so perfect for Leah.
Leah being a math prodigy was very interesting and I enjoyed her thought process. And the fact that she was convinced that she would never fall in love. And the backstory of her DNA test really got me to thinking what people must be going through. There were some great scenes between them.
I felt the relationship between Sebastian and his friend Ben was very well done. I am invested in the Miracle Five and cannot wait for Luke’s story. Becky has definitely intrigued me enough to keep following this series and anxiously await for the next book to come out. The underlying story of how the five have all dealt with their miracle differently is interesting.
