Book Description
Happily Ever After isn’t a destination. It’s a journey. Finish the journey with the final three books in the emotional, ugly-cry, laugh-out-loud, smoldering series that has been read by over 100,000 fans. "The Forever series has really touched many women's lives. Each story has been beautiful and realistic." ~ Fire and Ice Book Reviews BOOK 4: FOREVER BOUND "At 20% on my kindle I'm already in need of a cold shower." ~ The Eclectic Reader Jenny is a girlfriend-for-hire, the platonic kind. But her sugar daddy has fallen in love -- with someone else. Now she has to end it publicly by making sure the paparazzi "catches" her with another man. She just has to find the man. Chance has been hitchhiking across the US, playing and singing for tips. An unexpected invitation to sing includes a beautiful girl with pink dreadlocks who only has eyes for him. But the collision between Jenny and Chance is more emotional and intense than either of them expected. Chance takes off, but Jenny has to find him, because what neither of them realized is that sometimes a single night can be the beginning of forever. BOOK 5: FOREVER FAMILY "The emotions that each of these women experienced hit very close to home." ~ Smut Book Junkie Book Reviews CORABELLE Most days, I’m fine. I’m married to a hunk. Seriously. He rides a motorcycle, works in a garage, then studies for college on the side. And makes my toes curl, well, you know how. But a long time ago, when we were young, something really bad happened to us. Bad enough to break us up. I thought marriage would make things right. And it’s been happy. But something’s missing. The one thing we always wanted, but lost. And my best friend just got it. JENNY I know everybody envies my life, even with the baby. I’m a little wild. But my life isn’t as easy as it looks. With my husband about to hit big with his first album, and every two-bit floozy in the music industry hanging on him, I really need my best friends. I can’t get through this without them. TINA I know the stories tell you that happily ever after is what comes when he pops the question and you say yes. But life is really messy. And sometimes your horse-drawn pumpkin takes off at full gallop for a cliff. That’s where I am. And that’s why I had to leave. Because before I can get to the big finish, I have something else I have to do. A bit of business I should have taken care of long ago, but I was only a teenager then. I can only hope that by the time I get it done, I haven’t lost everyone I care about. Because when you’ve spent your whole life running, you forget that what really matters is your family. BOOK 6: FOREVER CHRISTMAS "An emotional and satisfying story." ~ Xtreme Delusions Book Blog They tell mothers like me, a woman whose baby has died, that a new pregnancy will bring a rainbow baby. You know, the beauty after the storm. What they don’t say is how hard it’s going to be. How scary. How emotional. That at the lowest point, I will completely give up hope. I do have a saving grace. Several, in fact. Gavin, my hot, sex-on-the-kitchen-counter, loves-me-on-my-bad-days husband. He’s been with me since the beginning. And I have Jenny and Tina, girlfriends I met along the way. They’re the good ones. The ones who bring you Kleenex and vodka. But I also have you. Tens of thousands of you who read my story and have cheered me on, waiting for me and Gavin to have a healthy baby. It helps me, knowing you’re out there, waiting, hoping. Some of you have lost babies yourselves. You know what I’m about to endure. So it’s time for the happiest happy ending of all. What better time than at Christmas? (Don’t forget your tissues. And maybe the vodka too.) THREE COMPLETE NOVELS Finish the series for one discounted price. You won't regret it.
