This is the fourth book by Indie author Samantha Chase and it's a bit more racy than her previous books - "The Christmas Cottage" and "Ever After". But hey, we contemporary romance readers LOVE the racy, right?
"She walked away from her fairytale wedding in search of her true happily ever after.
She hadn't counted on it coming searching for her first.
Eight
months after canceling her wedding, Ava Callahan finally has her life
in order and sees nothing but blue skies ahead. A chance encounter with
the man responsible for ruining her wedding has her newly organized
world in chaos.
Brian McCabe had persevered for eight long months
seeking the woman he loves and his patience was about to expire.
Purposely putting himself in every path Ava was on might not always work
to his advantage, but he wanted to make sure that she truly saw him for
who he was.
Her happily ever after..." "Ever After" is the follow up to Samantha Chase's best seller, "The Christmas Cottage". Picking up where "The Christmas Cottage" left off (well, maybe 8 months later) we now get to read Ava's story. Ava was the best friend in the previous book - a modern day Bridezilla who had some pretty definite ideas on how she wanted her fairytale wedding to be. There were binders...it was wild!
Now, eight months later, she is planning her future but the reappearance of sexy Brian McCabe into her life has her feeling confused. After all, it isn't every day a man proclaims that he loves you and then disappears for almost a year! Feeling like it would be wrong to get involved with him, Ava does her best to discourage Brian but the man is suddenly persistent!
Ava was a high-maintenance woman in "The Christmas Cottage" and was a little more than over the top, Samantha Chase stays true to that character and has Ava still a little hard to handle. While some were seemingly put off by her character, if you had read the first book, you knew that this was clearly her personality. And Brian? He is just yummy.
A great, light romantic novella; perfect for a weekend read. "Ever After" is currently available exclusively through Amazon on Kindle for only .99 cents! Enjoy!
I am an avid reader and writer of all things contemporary romance. I am a particular fan of the Harlequin Desire line. Some of my favorite authors include: Susan Mallery, Sandra Brown, Nora Roberts, Debbie Macomber, Diana Palmer, Emilie Rose, Kristan Higgins and Linda Lael Miller. That's not to say that I don't read other authors, these are just my personal favorites.
I'm always looking for a good book and I'm not particular about whether it is a new book and currently on some top seller list, I'm just looking for a good story. Hopefully I'll find many and be able to share them here with you.
I'm an author wanna-be whose ultimate dream is to be published. I have several completed manuscripts although I've only submitted one and I have the pile of rejections to show for it! But it's still my dream and some day I hope to see it come true! In April 2011, I became a top-five finalist in the Harlequin Desire Editor's Pitch Challenge and had the opportunity to pitch one of my books to a Harlequin editor! I'm still waiting to hear if they want me or not but either way it was very exciting to make it that far.
So if you are a fan of contemporary romance and are looking for something to read, sit back and enjoy. Maybe I've got something listed here that you can read!
