Say You'll Never Love Me
Sometimes, all it takes…
Raynebeaux Starr's life is damn near perfect. She has wonderful friends. An interesting career. A man when she wants and none when she doesn't, thank you very much. But when tragedy strikes and she’s named guardian to her six year old niece, her world is turned upside down. She finds herself alone in a new town with a small child, no parenting skills and desperate for guidance. Until she meets Father Jared Sloan. The sexiest minister she's ever seen. He is kind, patient and a literal God-send. If only she could stop having unholy thoughts about him!
…is one little lie,
Jared Sloan's love life is a disaster. He has one girlfriend he can't shake, and an ex-fiancée on his doorstep wanting him back. As if things weren't complicated enough, he encounters what must be a fallen angel in a church parking lot. Little does he know when he offers her counseling that she would be unlike anyone he's ever experienced. He wants to be the kind of man she can trust. He also wants to taste her so bad it hurts.
…to lead you to the truth.
Can Jared convince Raynie there is such a thing as happily-ever-after? Or will his deceit only confirm her belief that fairy tale endings don't exist in the real world. Especially not in Lubbock, Texas.

Overall Opinion: This had a lot of potential, but sadly it missed the mark for me. There was an inconsistency in how the story was told (started with including secondary characters's perspectives, but changed to just include the h and H's) that became confusing, the h was pushing the H away until the end of the LAST CHAPTER, and there was the abrupt HEA where it was all tied in a pretty little bow. It wasn't for me, but others might like it.
Brief Summary of the Storyline: This is Raynie and Jared's story. They meet one day in the parking lot of a church when Raynie is looking for some advice from the assistant pastor on becoming a new parent. Her sister died, and left her 6 year old daughter in her care. Jared and Raynie start a friendship of sorts even though both of them are strongly attracted. Eventually they go on some dates, there is some drama, a few sexy times...and they get their HEA.
POV: This focused mainly on Raynie and Jared in 3rd person narrative, but there was experiences from other side characters perspective (but this oddly happened only at the beginning, so it was inconsistent).
Overall Pace of Story: This is another big complaint I had with the story. It took forever for the h and H to have anything happen romantically, and when it did it was over! I appreciate the friends to lovers type theme, but the pacing in this one was completely off. (It ended at 91% on my kindle app too)
Instalove: No, they didn't start claiming feelings of love until later in the story.
H rating: 3 stars. Jared. He was ok...yep, that about sums it.
h rating: 2 stars. Raynie. I had big issues with her. She pushed him away constantly and to the point that I just wanted to shake her! It literally went on until the second half of the last chapter!!
Sadness level: Low. No tissues needed.
Heat level: Moderate/low. They take a really long time to become physical in any way. Their first kiss was 67%, and they didn't have sex until 75%. Their chemistry was ok.
Descriptive sex: Yes
Safe sex: Yes and no. No condoms were used, but std status and birth control are discussed. No mention of past practices.
OW/OM drama: Yes
Sex scene with OW or OM: Yes
Cheating: Not with the h and H, but both were cheated on in the past by other people.
Possible Triggers: No
Closure: This had their conflict end in the last chapter and then their HEA epilogue right after. I wanted some time with them as an actual couple! I had other issues, but this was my biggest complaint. In the epilogue, I would (grudgingly) say they got a HEA ending.
How I got it: It was part of my kindle unlimited subscription.
Safety: Safe with exceptions

Review:
This is my first Ann Everett book and it won't be my last. I'm looking forward to reading both, Two Wrongs Make a Right, and Tell Me a Secret.
Raynie was a mess starting out. She didn't know how she was going to handle becoming a instant mom to her niece. She was struggling with the loss herself and trying to heal Silbie’s broken heart. She didn't believe in HEA’s and choose the bad boys for that reason. Raynie and Jared met when she is having a meltdown after discovering her sister's secrets. She believes he's a pastor so she just unloads all her problems on him. She fights her attraction throughout the story while growing stronger as an individual. Everything comes together with her neighbors wise words:
"Even in romance novels, there's trouble. That's what keeps you reading. How boring would life be if it was nothing but Moonlight and Roses? Nobody wants to read that crap - Or live it. Besides, why do you think it's called falling in love? 'Cause there's always the risk of getting hurt."
In the beginning of this book I thought I was going to hate Jared. He was a mess from previous relationships and did some bad things. He stole my heart the second he met Silbie, Raynie’s niece. He was just so sweet to her. Can't hate a man that will drop anything for another's kid.
The only thing that was missing in this book for me was a little more to Jared and Silbie at the end of the book. I would have loved to see her reaction to Raynie and Jarred's relationship but over all I enjoyed reading this book.

I have already read one of the author's books earlier. So I wasn't totally new to her. But I do like to keep an open mind when going in for a new read though I was expecting a good read from her.
I liked the beginning of the book with the concept of introducing the hero and heroine first individually and then getting them to meet. What I had difficulty handling was the way they were portrayed at the start. I liked that Raynie was a free spirited person but the way she had a non one way relationship had me not liking her at first. Then her growth to a more balanced and family oriented person had me falling in love with her. I loved her interaction with Silbie. That was a precious read! Another part which I liked was Raynie confiding in Jared about her troubles. The depth of their romance and relationship is seen in those parts.
Jared was a difficult hero for me to like from the start. The way he behaved with Beth and Julie didn't endear him to me. Yeah, he had his reasons but I felt he was overly harsh. Though he got me to atleast like him a bit, I wasn't totally his fan at the end. I loved meeting Mr.Remmus. Every story should have his kind of character, wise and supportive. His secret was another twist to the already twisty secret about Celeste. The author did a good job of keeping it a bit mysterious and making it go with the flow of the story.
This was a wonderful story of 2 persons working through their demons and coming together in a beautiful way. The author kept the story interesting and the book was not attention detracting at any point. The ending added the perfect touch to the protagonists' story.
My rating : 4.5/5

The story of Rainie and Jared turned into a pretty good read. In the beginning, I wasn't sure I would like Jared. His character started off a little off, but he came into his own. He is one of the sweetest male leads I have read in a while. He is an architect. Rainie thinks he is the minister from the local church. He does let the misconception go on too long but it worked out. Every time he tries to tell the truth, they are interrupted. Rainie is quirky and sweet in her own way.
she is a tarot card reader. She does not believe in HEA and fights her attraction to Jared. There are some funny moments and dialogue throughout the romance. I loved the relationship that developed between Rainie and her niece, Silbe. She had doubts about her ability to mother her, but just like any mother, she had good days and bad days. I also loved how Jared and Silbe interacted. The story was well written and flowed really well. the characters were developed and easy to love.
even the supporting characters were fun. I can't believe this is my first book by this author.

One of the best love stories I ever read!
Let me start my review from a nice words Mr.Remmus said to Raynie.
"Even in romance novels, there's trouble. That's what keeps you reading. How boring would life be if it was nothing but Moonlight and Roses? Nobody wants to read that crap - Or live it. Besides, why do you think it's called falling in love? 'Cause there's always the risk of getting hurt."
I thought deeply about the Mr.Remmus saying. Wasn't it true? This saying was the best part I felt in love in the story most. My heart attracted to it's meaning.
This was the first time I read Ann Everett's novel. And the story stole my heart & guided me to be the author's fan, forever. Absolutely, a different romance novel. A Page-Turner. Sweet love story with loads of mess, Lots of troubles Raynie & Jared made in their lives. Finally they deserved a happily-ever-after love story.

This was a very sweet story about a girl who has to learn a new life as she raises her sisters daughter after her death. It is about how she copes and how one hot "preacher", helps her to learn that love is in the stars for her after all. A truly enjoyable read!

This book was crazy, emotional, and a great read. A case of mistaken identity or should I say profession leads two people together and into a relationship they never saw coming. Raynie’s sister and brother-in-law have just died and she is given guardianship of their daughter, Silbie. Raynie finds herself grieving the loss of her sister and trying to figure out how to be a mom to her niece all the while in a different town with no friends. Raynie always goes for the bad boys and doesn’t believe in happily-ever-afters. One day she decides to go to the local church thinking maybe she can find someone to talk to and get guidance from. That is where she meets Jared. He is just leaving from his meeting and is parked in the assistant pastor’s parking spot. He thinks she is just going to ask for directions so he doesn’t correct her and then it turns into so much more. At first he figures hearing her out and offering her some advice and just being a sounding board means he doesn’t have to spill about the mistake. Then he can’t get her out of his head and can’t seem to find a way to tell her. He fears she won’t want anything to do with him once she finds out. He is torn does he tell her and hope she wants to see where this thing between them goes or does he keep his mouth shut and what for her to leave town? Raynie finds herself so attracted to the Pastor and can’t seem to help it. He is a pastor and her life is such a mess right now. But it’s so easy to be around him. It’s been so long since a man wanted to spend time with her and isn’t instantly trying to get in her pants. But she doesn’t intend to stay in town and needs to focus on Silbie right now. What will they do? Each have their own things to confess and deal with? Will they get a chance or will one little lie destroy everything? I really enjoyed this book. Raynie is a mess. Things from her past continue to affect how she sees herself to this day. Jared takes her completely by surprise. She feels like she doesn’t deserve him and isn’t good enough for him. Jared finds himself stuck between three women at the beginning of the book. He breaks up with his current girlfriend who doesn’t take it well. His ex-fiancé has come back to town and then there is Raynie. Jared is a great guy who is just looking for the right girl. He tries so hard but finds himself in some interesting situations. He has become the butt of his friends jokes when they find out Raynie thinks he is a pastor. This is the second book by Ann is have read and I loved it just as much as the first. They are angsty and emotional at times but great reads. I look forward to reading more books by her in the future.

Sometimes, all it takes…
Raynebeaux Starr's life is damn near perfect. She has wonderful friends. An interesting career. A man when she wants and none when she doesn't, thank you very much. But when tragedy strikes and she’s named guardian to her six year old niece, her world is turned upside down. She finds herself alone in a new town with a small child, no parenting skills and desperate for guidance. Until she meets Father Jared Sloan. The sexiest minister she's ever seen. He is kind, patient and a literal God-send. If only she could stop having unholy thoughts about him!
…is one little lie,
Jared Sloan's love life is a disaster. He has one girlfriend he can't shake, and an ex-fiancee on his doorstep wanting him back. As if things weren't complicated enough, he encounters what must be a fallen angel in a church parking lot. Little does he know when he offers her counseling that she would be unlike anyone he's ever experienced. He wants to be the kind of man she can trust. He also wants to taste her so bad it hurts.
…to lead you to the truth.
Can Jared convince Raynie there is such a thing as happily-ever-after? Or will his deceit only confirm her belief that fairy tale endings don't exist in the real world. Especially not in Lubbock, Texas.
Summary:
Raynie grew up as free spirit who had no one to answer to until her sister died leaving her daughter, Silbie, in her care. Most people would resent the added responsibilities, but all Raynie was concerned about was her ability to to properly care for her niece. Raynie met Father Jared Sloan in the church parking lot and they struck up a conversation, but in reality Jared wasn't a priest. Jared had his own problems dealing with a very possessive girlfriend and an ex who showed up to complicate matters. You would think that Jared had had enough problems, but his desire to see and help Raynie couldn't be denied. The growing feelings between Raynie and Jared were at odds with Raynie's refusal to ever fall in love, but Silbie has her own ideas of what she wants and Jared will play large role if she has her way. Add to the craziness one interfering elderly elderly gentleman and a nudest grandmother creating love story that I will never forget. The complex plot and unique characters brought the story to life. I for one was captivated by Silbie as her life was turned upside down, but somehow maintained her quirky childlike love to everyone around her.

This is the first book that I have had the chance to read by Ann Everett. When I read the synopsis I was hooked. I have to say that it was a tad misleading though. Overall, I really did enjoy this book and look forward to reading more of the authors work.
Have you ever told a little white lie? One that you knew you would most likely never have to explain? That is just the predicament that Jared Sloan finds himself in. What he never expected was to be so drawn to the unique woman who seems to think he is a Minister. Jared has had his fill of woman. His current girlfriend drives him crazy and is a little more possessive than he would like. And then there is his ex-fiance, who comes waltzing back into his life, hoping to rekindle their relationship. Jared wants no part of either woman. What he wants is to get to know Raynie better. With his real profession hidden from her, he continues to counsel her. But the more time he spends with her, the more he finds himself falling for her. Can he come clean and get her to understand his reasoning or will all his efforts be a waste?
Raynie Star has just been names guardian of her niece. Her world has been turned upside down. She has had to move, leave her friends and learn how to care for her young niece. Her track record with men is so bad that she no longer believes in happily ever after. She no longer dates, but hooks up and that is all she wants. When she meets the gorgeous Father Sloan, she feels a connection to him. But little does she know that he hasn't been truthful. The more time they spend together, the harder Raynie begins to fall. Can her track record with men be broken, can she learn to trust another man again and will she be able to find happiness even with the little white lie that was the start to their friendship?
I really really enjoyed this book. I actually had a hard time putting it down. The one thing that was a tad confusing was the first few chapters about secondary characters in the story. I guess I can assume that the author was trying to set the story up for when they would make an appearance, but it seemed so unusual. Overall, I found it to be well written and entertaining. I felt a connection to the characters and found myself going through the emotions that they did at times. This story is filled with loss, love, learning, new beginnings and forgiveness. Go grab your copy of Say You'll Never Love Me now and jump on the roller coaster ride that is Raynie and Jared's story.

With his real profession hidden from her, he continues to counsel her. But the more time he spends with her, the more he finds himself falling for her. Can he come clean and get her to understand his reasoning or will all his efforts be a waste?
Raynie Star has just been names guardian of her niece. Her world has been turned upside down. She has had to move, leave her friends and learn how to care for her young niece. Her track record with men is so bad that she no longer believes in happily ever after. She no longer dates, but hooks up and that is all she wants. When she meets the gorgeous Father Sloan, she feels a connection to him. But little does she know that he hasn't been truthful. The more time they spend together, the harder Raynie begins to fall. Can her track record with men be broken, can she learn to trust another man again and will she be able to find happiness even with the little white lie that was the start to their friendship?
I really really enjoyed this book. I actually had a hard time putting it down. The one thing that was a tad confusing was the first few chapters about secondary characters in the story. I guess I can assume that the author was trying to set the story up for when they would make an appearance, but it seemed so unusual. Overall, I found it to be well written and entertaining. I felt a connection to the characters and found myself going through the emotions that they did at times. This story is filled with loss, love, learning, new beginnings and forgiveness. Go grab your copy of Say You'll Never Love Me now and jump on the roller coaster ride that is Raynie and Jared's story.

This was my first time reading anything by Ann Everett and I totally must say that I thoroughly enjoyed this sweet story. Ms Everett has given us a story that will suck you right in and keeps you there from start to finish ,and then leaves us wanting more from this author. The story was an emotional roller coast ride and had a little bit of crazy also,and the characters were amazing the secondary characters who were friends and family were written great even thought they only make grief appearances,and they will make you fall in love with them. Rayne is such a free spirit and has sworn off relationships ,thanks to two divorces .But then there's Jared who hasn't exactly sworn off of relationships, but at the sometime he totally has an ex girlfriend who's crazy and is stalking him. But at the same time his ex fiance who wants him back OMG. But poor Rayne has suddenly gain custody of her 6 year old niece ,after her sister and her husband died. But she's afraid she's mot ready to be a parent.So she goes and pays a visit to a church ,and well there she meets Jared ,who she thinks is a minister and Jared say nothing to her ,and just let her go on thinking that he is the minister. But soon sparks begin to fly ,and they both didn't know what to do or how to handle it. There was moments that I just didn't care for Jared and there was moments that I though Rayne was a little pain. But will they ever get over their past ,and learn to deal with life and it's up and downs. Or will they give in to their feels that they have for each other. But the big question is what will she think when she learns that he's not a minister .The story revolves around Rayne and Jared past and how their future will turn out. I could go on and tell you more about this touching story ,but that would spoil it for you. I highly recommend that you read this touching story, you won't be disappointed.

I loved this book. I was teary eyed at the start and really wasn't sure what to expect.
Rayne and Jared, have both been hurt and betrayed in the quest for love. Jared is still on the hunt for his happy ever after, but Rayne shy's away from commitment.
Rayne Starr (Raynebeaux) is a free spirit, who has had to deal with some major life changes, including becoming the guardian to her young niece. Rayne is a tarot card reader, and after unsuccessful relationships she doesn't believe in happy ever after.
Jared Sloane was really a character that you want to hate, but couldn't. He was such a sweet guy, with well meaning intentions. He did make a few questionable decisions early on in the book, that made me wonder if I was really going to like him, but he redeemed himself.
This book is a bit of a slow burn with a great mixture of romance and angst, there were a few twists and turns that i wasn't expecting that kept me engaged and enthralled. I really enjoyed the secondary characters. Rayne's mother in particular was quite quirky and fairly humorous. The variety of the characters was interesting and entertaining and had me glued to this story from the very start. I really enjoyed the dual point of view that gave us an insight into both the hero and heroine's thought process.
I look forward to reading more from this author.

This book so deserves more than 5 stars! I read it one sitting because this story is so interesting that I just couldn't put it down. I couldn't predict what would happen and I like that! ALOT!
Raynie is a loner. No relationship needed. If she wants to hook up then it's just sex, don't need any of that love crap! Fairy tales are not real. She's better off alone. Until her sister and her husband die and she gets left the custody of her 6-year-old niece. A kid? What the heck was her sister thinking? OMG, I loved Raynie! Her free spirit attitude is something I can totally relate too. No matter what curve ball life throws at her, she takes it by the horns and steps up to the plate and deals with it. Raynie finds out about herself while realizing her sister wasn't perfect. Hard pill to swallow when you realize no one is perfect.
Jared is a dream! Ok, so he may fib just a little but who doesn't. He was captivated by Raynie immediately and just couldn't resist getting to know her even more. The closeness these two felt was so great. I loved seeing how everything played out and I screamed a couple times because Jared and Raynie both are so bullheaded! But this is why this book was so great. A couple of people who think they know what they want until life says "Hey I'm in charge, Not you". Life can mess with the best of us but I believe things happen for a reason. Can you fall in love with certain characters from a story? I sure did. These two and that sweet little girl that really stole my whole heart.
This entire story is exciting and full of emotional highs and lows and some great hot sex. After awhile you realize that in life, we are just along for the ride. Jared and Raynie's ride is so worth the adventure!

This is my first book by Ann Everett and I have already marked Tell Me a Secret & Two Wrongs Make a Right for reading!
So, the description intrigued me - I have read so many books with a good heroine and a bad boy and they falling for each other ... this one is slightly different.
Rayne has sworn off relationships thanks to two divorces, whereas, Jared though hasn't exactly sworn off relationships, has a crazy ex-girlfriend who's stalking him and an ex-fiancee wanting him back!
Now, when Rayne's suddenly gotten custody of her neice, she feels she is not ready for parenthood and needs help - thus the church visit! That's where Rayne and Jared meet. Rayne mistakes Jared to be a minister and he doesn't correct it!
Sparks fly and they're not sure how to handle it! I felt the crazy exes could have been dealt with better by adding more drama, but it is good to read a book with less drama - what do you say? Though there are a few instances where you don't like Jared and a few instances where you don't like Rayne - they handle a few things based on their past, so it is understandable.
Do they get over their past and decide to give their relationship a try? What will happen when Rayne discovers Jared isn't a minister and has lied all along? Will they trust one another?
Ann has a nice writing style. This book revolves around Rayne and Jared, along with their friends and family who make brief appearances. I loved that they take time take before taking the plunge and character-building was good. If you are looking for a sweet and romantic read with less drama, this is a great read.

A sweet, quick read
When Raynie's sister dies in a car accident, Raynie moves to town to take custody of her young niece, with the plan of only staying through the end of the school year before moving her niece back with her to Austin. She feels inadequate, especially compared to the perfect life she thought her sister had, so when she meets an attractive man she thinks is the associate pastor of a local church, she takes it as an opportunity to talk to someone about her feelings. Jared didn't intend to lie, but when the quirky and charming Raynie makes assumptions, he has his own reasons for not immediately correcting her. He's definitely interested but Raynie has been burned too many times to be willing to take a chance on love, especially when she's not planning on staying in town, and she feels she and Jared are such opposites.
This is the first book by this author for me, and though there are characters that carry over from previous books into this story, I didn't feel like I was really missing anything not having read their stories, and the supporting characters were definitely a plus. As for Raynie and Jared, I wanted to yell at them both at different times in the book--Raynie for being so resistant and Jared for keeping up his lie--and that did make the story drag a bit for me. There were a couple of plot twists I didn't see coming, and while as I said, the story did drag in the middle, I liked the ending. Overall, I enjoyed it enough that I want to read the earlier stories about Jared's brother, Jace, and Raynie's best friend, Quinn. I'm going to call this one 3.5 to 4 stars.

I received an ARC from Book Enthusiast Promotions for their 30 Day Indie Challenge.
I originally picked this book because of the slightly taboo insinuation in the synopsis of a bad girl hippy chick and a pastor hooking up. Turns out the synopsis was a wee bit misleading and although I found the beginning of the book a rough start because of my confusion and Jared's antics, it didn't take long to fall in love with the main characters. Raynebeaux Starr aka Raynie is quite the character. She's a woman scarred by her history with men and when we meet her in this book she's at a loss as to how to become a mother to her niece Silbie who has recently lost both her parents. Jared, after my initial dislike, becomes a stabilizing force for both Raynie and Silbie. I really enjoyed the pace of most of this book. Although the attraction was instant, this was no insta-love book. We got to take the ride along with Raynie and Jared, although it took Raynie a loooong time to get out of her own way. My only real complaint is that although there is a pretty large cast of secondary characters we don't get to know them very well and there's not a lot of combined interaction even though so many are tied together in one way or another. I'm already planning on reading Quinn and Dak's book (Raynie's friends) and I know Jared's brother has his own book. I'm also not convinced that Jared's ex-girlfriend/stalker Beth Ann or the reappearance of his ex-fiancé Julie really added to the book since both story lines were kinda just dropped.

One word : Amazing
I have already read 2 of Ann's works and I loved it. This one is no exception, the book kept me engrossed.
The main characters of this book were part of 2 other books, however this book is stand alone. Having said that let's get into the story.
Raynie is a free spirit who enjoys life as it come and doesn't believe in happily ever after. She owns a successful tarot card reading business. All of a sudden her happy free world goes upside down. Her sister dies in a car accident leaving Raynie to be the guardian of a 6 year old. This makes Raynie put her life on hold and take care of her niece. Her sister's death and the new responsibility makes Raynie seek out some help. When she meets father Jared sparks fly.
Jared is being stalked by his ex-girlfriend who doesn't understand " we are done". On the other side his ex-fiance enters into his life again to re-kindle their relationship.
Jared meets Raynie at the church and doesn't correct her when she assumes him to be the minister. They both are attracted to each other but aren't sure of moving forward.
This story takes you through all confusion Jared and Raynie face before giving their relationship a try. Will they move past their doubts?
I enjoyed this book and would recommend this for a light and sweet romantic read.

Raynie usually likes the bad boy. Raynie is a free spirit and doesn’t believe in forever. Raynie has her own tarot card reading business. Raynie has wonderful friends and can find a man when she wants one. But then tragedy strikes and her sister and brother in law are killed in an accident and Raynie has to raise her six year old niece Silbie. So Raynie moves to take care of her niece. Raynie feels overwhelmed and went to a church to talk to the pastor. She meets Jared in the parking lot and Raynie thinks Jared is the assistant pastor and he doesn’t correct her. Jared is really an architect . Jared has a crazy ex who doesn’t believe the relationship is over and an ex fiance that wants Jared back. Raynie is attracted to Jared but fights it as she feels Jared and her are opposites.
I liked the story for the most part. But i thought Jared was a little mean the way he handled his exs Beth and Julie. Jared not telling Raynie the truth about himself right away bothered me too. Also first the prospective was from secondary character then it switches to Raynie and Jared and wasn’t really on board with that. I did think the story was funny at times and laughed and chocked at other times. I did enjoy the characters .I also liked the in and outs of this story.

Say You'll Never Love Me is the first book I have read by Ann Everett. This book is written in multiple pov's. If you don't like those types of books then this is not one for you. The book did start out a little slow but did pick up the pace.
Raynebeaux Starr or Raynie has moved to now take care of her niece Silbie. Raynie has no clue how to be a mother and learning how to take care of a child and how her sister handled everything is a job in it self. Raynie thinks she should seek help from a someone at the local church. When she pulls in she meets Jarod who she thinks is the associate pastor. Jarod thinks Raynie needs directions and doesn't correct her. Jarod now feels like she just needs someone to listen to her and maybe guide her.
Every day they meet for lunch and talk. Raynie feels like she can talk to him but she always has dirty thoughts of him. As time goes on she finds out more and more that her sister was unhappy in the marriage and now his parents want to take Silbie away.
This was a good book I just didn't care for the secondary characters pov, I didn't feel like they added anything to the story and the author could have used that to tell us more.

Raynebeaux "Raynie" doesn't believe in fairy tale or happy ever afters. She hasn't been lucky with relationships so now she doesn't do relationships. Her life is turned upside down when her sister and her sister's husband passing away. She is now the guardian of her six year old niece. Raynie is a down to earth girl and she's a little in over her head raising her niece. I liked Raynie's character.
At first I wasn't sure whether I like Jared or not. The sorry is told in both his and Raynie's POVs. So we get to know a little about Jared before he runs into Raynie. At first glance of Jared, I didn't think I would like him with Raynie but I warmed up to him as I read more.
When they first meet Jared is parked in the minster's parking spot at church. Raynie mistakes him for a minster. He doesn't correct her right away. It's kind of a funny way to start their relationship and I kept wondering how that would effect their relationship in the end.

I truly enjoyed this book. It was fun, sexy and very emotional at times. Between Raynie and Jared and that sweet little Silbie....it was chock full of characterization that made these people real and endearing to your heart. I fell in love with Mr Remmus. Raynie is a very complex character in that her self esteem has taken a toll on her way of looking at love and commitment. Jared has had his heart bruised and yet, he knows this woman is for him. All in all...a wonderful and fun reading experience. I received this as an ARC from the author with no pressure to review it, but how can I not take the time to review when it is very evident that the author's heart and soul is in every word of this novel. Well done and highly recommended!!!

I loved this story. Raynebeau Starr is at her sister's home because her and her husband were killed in an car accident. It left their little six year old, Silie all alone and they wanted Rayne to take and raise her. She reads tarot cards and she doesn't believe in happily ever after. She doesn't know the first thing about raising a child., She goes for a walk and at a church meets, Jared Sloan. She thinks he is a preacher and he doesn't tell her he isn't. She confides in him thinking him a preacher. This story does contain some profanity and some sex scenes. The story between these two is great and its a very good read. Hard to put down

You never know when or where love will find you and this story is all about that. Raynebeaux has just experienced a tragic lost and finds herself in a position she was not ready for....raising her young niece. She is a tarot card reader and has given up believing in fairy tales and happily ever afters, especially for her. Trying to deal with some of the stress, she goes by a church in order to get some guidance, but she didn't count on meeting Jared. Jared is in the wrong place at the right time and a mistaken identity just may be what they both need and are looking for! Enjoyable read with multiple POVs that will allow you into each character's thoughts and feelings.

I loved this book. It was a really cute and happy story. Starts out sad as our main character has to deal with some major life changes but it has a wonderful ending. I even enjoyed some of the little surprises she adds in. I like a story where the couple have to work out their problems. This isn't one where they meet and everything is grand. These two go through changes before they get their H.A. l also enjoyed the secondary characters ,as they add humor to the story. Looking forward to reading more from this author.
April 27, 2016
This was a pretty decent read for me. I loved Jared and the way that he tricked Raynebeaux but if you really think about he didn't. Rayne was a person who thought she had it all but really she didn't and she didn't figure that out until her life was turned upside down. Jared was the guy that you love to hate cause of what he went through but that is what makes you love him even more. I loved the supporting characters because they made this story more enjoyable. In the end you find out that sometimes being tricked can work out for the best.

This Was A Really Enjoyable Read And Once Over The Sad Start To This Book, It Ends Up Being A Really Beautiful And Happy Story.
I Liked That They Had To Work At Their Happy Ever After, It Was All Happy Happy From The Get Go And Perfect, They Had Issues To Work On And Alot Of This Happen That I Wasn't Happy With. I Hated That Jared Played Raynie For So Long Regarding The Mistaken Identity Thing And Allowed Her To Call Him Father For Far Too Long.
With Being Said I Did Like This Book A Lot And Look Forward To Reading More From This Author In The Future

Yet another book by Ann Everett where she captures the emotions of the characters with such clarity! Ann has quickly become one of my favorite authors.
