No Such Happily Ever Afters
Harper Marshall is a burned-out writer who has made her living in selling a tragic ending is her signature style and there is no room for anything resembling a happily ever after because... there's no such thing.
Enter Charlie mechanic, small-town golden boy, and Harper's brother's best friend (and now the Best Man in his wedding).
After a strange twist of fate, Charlie becomes the man responsible for helping Harper save her brother's winter wedding, and Harper is determined to return to New York unscathed.
And as wedding-planning-pressure wears on the pair, Harper and Charlie strike a deal to complete a series of "happy-ending-inspiring activities" in hopes of helping Harper write her new novel, in exchange for making this winter wedding a success. Through this process, Harper will be forced to confront not only the hurt she left behind in the small town of Pinecrest, Connecticut but the even deeper hurt that lies within her.
Will Harper be able to change the ending of her story and learn that happy endings come in more than one form, or is she destined to be the "Heartbreaker" forever?
No Such Happily Ever Afters is a contemporary Christian romance novel about coming home for the holidays and finding the greatest ending of all.

This debut novel wraps all things good and bright about Christmas into a cozy tale of holiday hope & cheer! The characters are relatable and admirable, as they seek to persevere through personal challenges to find joy in the small things. This was the perfect novel to curl up with in front of the fireplace leading up to the busy Christmas season and refocus my heart towards home.

This book is amazing! I was telling one of my friends at work that this book isn’t my normal go to genre, but this book is honest and profound in a way that makes me believe that no matter how broken you may feel that the Lord loves and cares for you unlike no other. I am so grateful that I received this book as a gift for Christmas. I am going to pass it on for my friends to read with the promise they return it to me so I can reread it ever so often.
