I believe the best way is to see the hero is through the eyes of our heroine. Kari meets Randy as she physically collides into him during a rainstorm while walking to her cousin’s wedding. What is her first impression? Well, there is his voice - The timbre of his voice was friendly and soothing. It reminded her of how she felt on rainy afternoons while curled up in her mother’s afghan, reading a book in front of a fire. And there is his smile - She’d never seen such an authentic smile. It was as if it started in his eyes and traveled down to his genial mouth. Then when she arrives at the wedding, she gets a better look at him. Randy Steele appeared to be no more than thirty. He stood tall and massive beside her with his dark hair gleaming under the lights, giving it a bluish luster…Steele. They must mean his eyes. The pastor had the most stunning steel blue eyes she’d ever seen. Viewing them under bright light instead of through gushing rain brought out their true sheen.
The low down on Randy is that he has a fun-loving personality and a sensitive spirit. He comes from an affluent family. His father wanted him to follow in his footsteps and become a lawyer but Randy felt called into the ministry. After finishing his pre-law degree, he went against his father and attended seminary instead of law school, cutting himself off from him parents as a result. But Randy doesn’t let that get him down. He maintains a good relationship with his younger sister who is nine years his junior. Now, he is a youth pastor at a small church and he loves it…but there is that issue of reaching his parents.
Next time I will introduce you to the heroine, Kari.
