New Release & Review: Snowy Ever After by Samantha Chase & Stefanie London

 

Snowy Ever After by Samantha Chase & Stefanie London is now live! 


What could be better than a holiday wedding?
How about two?

Join bestselling authors Samantha Chase and Stefanie London for a whole lot of love this holiday season with Snowy Ever After!

With some of your favorite Magnolia Sound and Patterson's Bluff residents, we can guarantee you'll get all those small town, holiday feels with guaranteed happily ever afters and I Do's!

WEDDING WONDERLAND by Samantha Chase:

SAVE THE DATE!
You are cordially invited to the wedding of Mia Kingsley and Austin Coleman.
Or you will be if a snowstorm doesn't blanket the town with piles of fresh snow, making the trip to the chapel near impossible.
But the Coleman family is not about to let a measly little storm ruin Mia and Austin's perfect day. After all, Magnolia Sound is just the place for a perfect wedding wonderland.

DESTINED FOR FOREVER by Stefanie London

Romantic comedy screenwriter, Lily Dunn, watches her life go from happily ever after to crappily ever after when she gets dumped on live television.

Facing her overprotective family at her cousin's wedding is not ideal. They think she's not cut out for cutthroat Hollywood. How can she prove she's moved on? Pretend to have a new man, of course. The only rule is: keep it fake.

But the chemistry with her former high school crush burns hotter than an open fire. Can two bruised and battered hearts find the kind of love that only happens in the movies?

My Review:
Snowy Ever AfterSnowy Ever After by Samantha Chase
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Wonderful holiday duo to put you in the mood for the season.
Wedding Wonderland shows how the power of family can surmount any challenge. Mia and Austin decide on a winter wedding with very little time to plan. But with great wedding planners and talented family members, everything seems to be on track until Mother Nature decides to take part. Is there any chance that they will be married by New Year’s? Dive in to find out.

Destined for Forever is a fun fake boyfriend to lover’s romance. Lily and Sean grew up together but neither one ever revealed their true feelings. A winter wedding has them spending time together and they both want a buffer from all the questions about when will they find someone so they band together to be each other’s fake significant other. But what happens when their feelings become real? I love how we got to learn their history during this crazy winter wedding. Sean feels stuck and Lily is so busy climbing the career ladder she’s lost focus. For this duo, they really are a great pair so can they inspire each other for the next step in their lives? Will love be something they are willing to embrace?
I voluntarily read an ARC of this book and this is my honest review.

Excerpt:
A few moments pass, and I consider going back inside. But I can’t bring myself to do it. All day we’ve been surrounded by people, and now that it is just the two of us, I want to wallow in the pleasure of having claimed this man. I want to watch him rounding the side of the house. I want to see the possessiveness with which he approaches it, knowing full well that he owns the property, the house, and everything inside it.
Including me.
I want to see the heat that will flare in his eyes when he sees that I’m waiting for him, and I want to feel the brush of his lips on mine when he kisses me.
I want it—and Damien doesn’t disappoint.
The moment I see him, I feel the breath catch in my throat, his impact upon me no less intense after having been married now for years. He walks with a casual confidence, his body straight and strong, his chin high. He radiates power and control, but at the same time there is an easiness to him. A weekend quality that suggests that even though he can command a board room, he is equally skilled on a tennis court or the ski slopes.
Or in a bedroom.
I shiver, thinking about his particular skills in that area, and when his eyes meet mine and he flashes that slow, easy smile, I’m certain he knows exactly what I’m thinking.
“Why, Mrs. Stark,” he says, sliding one hand around my waist and pulling me to him. “You look like a woman with something on your mind.”
“I am,” I admit. I’m breathless now, my skin tingling in response to his touch.
“Whatever could you be thinking about?”
“You,” I admit, then rise onto my toes to meet his mouth. The kiss is deep, claiming, and I melt against him, more than willing to surrender to his touch.
I want to simply let go. To lose myself and the rest of this afternoon in his arms.

My Review:
Delight Me: A Stark Ever After Collection and StoryDelight Me: A Stark Ever After Collection and Story by J. Kenner
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Beautiful Christmas novella for Damien and Nikki. I love that this novella included wonderful quotes and moments between Damien and Nikki while also delivering some bonus scenes that had been released via the author’s newsletter. This all leads to a wonderful holiday story where Damien shows again how much he loves his family when Grandpa Frank is stranded in Mexico. As he celebrates with Nikki at an event, he sees her holiday expectations dim when Frank calls and says he won’t make it back. Well, that’s not good enough for Damien so he works to make all her dreams come true. Add in the joy that their two daughters bring to their family and this is a true miracle of love to devour. I voluntarily read an ARC of this book and this is my honest review.
