Description

John Forrester is a simple man whose never needed more than his work, his truck, and a small apartment with his flat screen TV. After a bad breakup with his ex-wife John swore he’d never get married again and has done his best to keep to himself. But one woman always creeps into his mind—Arianna Keller.

Arianna Keller had an amazing career, center stage on Broadway. However, her run in New York is over and circumstances have forced her back home to Nashville, Tennessee.

The relationship John and Arianna have forged over the years as friends has always had a romantic spark, which has been ignored. Now they are working together to restore an old theater and their desire for each other can no longer be denied. 

It’s only a matter of time before sparks ignite into a passionate fire. But Arianna is keeping a secret which threatens to destroy more than her relationship with John—it threatens the lives of the entire Keller family.

    Ali out did herself again!!! I absolutely love the story line and Riley's story is awesome. One thing that killed me is the cliff hanger at the end. Ugh just when they were going to get busy Way to go Ali Parker on another great, well written book. Can't wait for part 3

    I have read this series over the last few days and this book was my least favorite it was still very good. It could have been really good. It seemed like the author rushed this story and shorted the series in a whole. Look forward to seeing what the rest of the books hold in this series.
  • Going through the motions!

    The Keller series has lost its steam. Characters not developed, plot not explained. Things have gone hill quickly! Not a must read.

    Great story. Never disappointed with this author. Love the family series and she is not like some authors that repeat all the same words and actions with ALL the family characters. Each one in this series has a different identity and characteristics. Thank you for being so refreshing. D Gatlin Ocala, FL

    I love the other three books I wish this one was good but I would have liked a little more at the end.

    I started with the free 1st book in the series and was HOOKED! Read them all in order and you won't be disappointed. I love this book a little more than the others because John Forrester is just so sweet, sexy, and protective. What a guy! He's loving yet strong, and I can relate to the age difference since my husband is older than I am. Great story and I love how the author keeps us informed about the other family members we've come to love and care about. I can't wait to read Eduardo's story and start on the new generation! Keep these terrific stories coming, Ms. Marie! Please!

    This is by far my favorite in the series. It was good to read a tender love story with mature characters (40+). No we arent all worn down and wrinkle at that age. I would have given it 5 stars but I like happy endings and this ended on a somewhat tragic note. Also, there were some discrepancies in the story that did not line up with the previous events in the earlier book. It sort of diminished the effect. Overall a Very Good Story.
  • Great book!
