edit data

Allison Wells is an author, wife, and mother who is also a logophile (a lover of words).
The desire to write came early for Allison. After graduating from Clemson, Allison became a newspaper reporter. Tired of constantly writing bad news, she began writing novels. Now, Allison writes for regional publications and enjoys writing southern novels with elements of faith.
In her writing, Allison feels led to bring an element of reality to her readers. She recognizes that living a Christian life does not mean everything is rosy all the time, and she wants to represent that with her writing, while still wrapping things up with a happy ending.
Allison's motto is Life is Short, Eat the Oreos. ...more

What’s the book about?
Kevin Sloan is a bad boy who thinks he has the answer to his bleak future, and Sarah Stevenson is the beautiful good girl that Kevin never saw coming. When their paths cross and temptations complicate everything they used to know, they’re forced to decide if the love they never thought they’d have is worth risking everything to keep.

I enjoyed the stories in Not Your Ever After. The authors did a great job with reworking fairy tales to have a modern twist. Each story is the perfect length and I loved reading them!
