Review: Finding Ever After - Stephanie Hoffman McManu

Finding Ever After (Ever After # 1)Finding Ever After by Stephanie Hoffman McManus
Lynn's rating: 5 of 5 stars

I wasn't sure of my opinion at the beginning of the book. By 1/4 way in, I was hooked. I loved these guys; Ace, Spade, Bas, Chris and even Kyden. They were like the ultimate friends to have. After leaning the reason why Jax left, Bas knew what happened, the rest of the guys find out as the story progresses. They want to protect Jax and keep anything from happening again.

There is a lot of drama in the book, but I think that is what makes the story. Jax doesn't want to become a one-night stand to Kyden. Kyden has too many issues to want a relationship. So they try the friends only route. There is too much sexual tension for that to work long term. I don't want to give anything away with my review, so I am not elaborating on any of the situations in the book.

The story had me in tears a few times, and I can honestly say, I am looking forward to the next book. At least I hope their is a second book. As much as I liked the ending in this one. I need a little more.


Finding Ever After (Ever After # 1)

by 
Revised 09/2014

The day she graduated high school, Jaxyn left everything behind to escape. Now, three years later, she's done running from her past and finally returning home to Boston to face the friends she abandoned without warning and the nightmares that still wake her in the night.

Back in the house that holds all of her childhood memories, from before life showed her that 'happily ever afters' don't come easy, she is unsure of what the future holds. She definitely wasn't expecting Kyden McCabe, the hot, tattooed and pierced musician she meets her first night back. He's arrogant, frustrating and completely wrong for her.

All she ever wanted as a little girl was to be swept off her feet by a prince, but Ky is nothing like the heroes from the stories her mom used to read to her. He lives his life one night stand at a time and she knows he's nothing but trouble.

Still haunted by her past and afraid to let anyone see the scars she hides, she fights the attraction she feels for Kyden and wonders if she'll ever find her storybook ending. Then a monster from her past threatens to rip away her chances before she realizes that maybe she already found it.
