By Julia Jarrett
Always and Forever by Julia Jarrett digital book - Fable

Publisher Description

He's my childhood best friend's older brother, and he's determined to convince me to stay in Dogwood Cove, with him, forever.

 

Coming home to Dogwood Cove after eighteen years away is bittersweet. But running into Ethan Monroe has me wondering why I put it off for so long.

 

He isn't the boy I played hide and seek with as a child anymore. Now he's the seriously hot, plaid wearing, scruff bearing, mayor of this small town. A man who can sweep me off my feet, and make me feel safe, all at the same time.

 

Except I didn't come back here looking for love. My estranged father is dead, and because of an unexpected inheritance, I find myself learning the truth of everything I lost when my mother moved us away.

 

Through it all, Ethan's right by my side. And with every day that passes, he's helping me to see that coming back to Dogwood Cove could be the start of the life I've always dreamed of.

 

 

Always and Forever is  a hurt/comfort, childhood friends to lovers, steamy small town romance guaranteed to make you swoon. It's perfect for fans of, found family friend groups, cinnamon roll heroes, light hearted banter, quirky small town vibes, low angst and high heat love stories with a guaranteed HEA. It is a standalone, and the first full length novel in the Dogwood Cove series.

Beaming Face with Smiling Eyes“This book is the first book that I've read (listen to) this year and I think it is a good start to a great year. I love small town tropes and kinda like how they are childhood friends but I just think their problem at the end of the book can easily be solved. I do understand that it is hard for the mmc to tell the truth because he doesn't want her to go away and that she can't accept that he lied to her because of the whole parents things. But, it is an easy read suitable for anyone that just want to read something simple and short. I read this book during the gap between my exam papers and this book really makes me release all my stress from the exam. 😂”
