The story was cute.

Wow
Wow, this was such a enjoyable second chance romance. I absolutely loved the broth of both Mase and Carly. Made happens to be one of my favorite heros, not only because of his actions, but he is also a member of one of my favorite NPHC fraternities (IYKYK) (And no, she didn't use the name, but I was able to figure it out). This has turned into one of my favorite second chance romances. It was such a well written story, and I love how she tackled gentrification as well as other issues (child loss/miscarriage is one of the triggers)

A sweet romance with an edge of drama and a lot of family love and let's not forget the crazy ex's of both Mason and Carly. My favorites were Ariel and Yara.

Forever Carly is a beautifully written second chance love story. Mason and Carly's characters are well developed with human flaws and frailties that make it believable. Flaws that kept them apart but the yearning was the glue that sealed their hearts desire for one another.
The author used past hurts,old wounds, and family/community love to bring them to a meeting of the hearts.
I enjoyed the craftiness of the author to weave real situations like gentrification, friendships, miscarriage, divorce, heartache, and drama from exes to heighten the storyline and grab our attention throughout. This couple needed and yearned for a happily ever after.
Page turner worthy of five fabulous shiny stars.

Roller Coaster Ride
A lot happened between Carly and Mason in a negative way that it almost robbed them of true love. Ex's and circumstances were prevelant, but they failed in their endeavors. Second chance mature read that will keep you guessing until the last few chapters. Enjoy!

Mace and Carly
This was my first read by this author and I enjoyed it. It took a minute for me to warm to Mason and Carly as a couple because Mace seemed indifferent in the beginning. The author showed that coming back together doesn’t guarantee things will be easy. By the end of the book I was invested and rooting for Mace and Carly.

Worth It?
Forty-One chapters of Will it happen, oh no's, and crossing my fingers that the heroine and hero will survive each other as well as the surrounding drama.
Carly Rivers and Mason "Mace" Moore has a past, part good, part bad, and a great deal of indifference. Struggling to get past unpleasant marriages and divorces, to become better people in their fields of expertise. The same goals with different ways of achieving them. Mace has the tenacity that says I will not fail.
My favorite character was Aunt Nora, and my least favorites were the meddling ex-wife and ex-husband.
FOREVER CARLY is as compelling as the Moore family Saga, same name different family. Read it!
