Rate this book
Fallon Rose has been waiting to exhale for the past two years and not by choice. A blended family and divorce was the last gift she expected underneath the Christmas tree. But there it was — her mess of a life, wrapped nicely in an oversized, bright, red bow.

After a trip back home to Memphis and a few broken traditions, Fallon is blindsided when she realizes her soulmate may be sitting directly across from her.

Fallon’s secret admirer is willing to serve her the world on a platter, but is she ready to accept his invite and all that he brings to the table? Fallon takes her chances when she goes on a blind date she’ll never forget.

Discover what it feels like to have a slice of true love over the holidays in a Table For Two.

*This is a sweet, romance comedy and a short work of fiction.*

Fallon deserved some happiness in her life after dealing with Ellis & his unnecessary drama. Nate was the right man for her. Storyline held my interest. Good holiday read.

Let me just say that this was my first Sam J. book and I enjoyed it.

It was hard to see Fallon so completely gone and drained like she was unwilling to let go and I just couldn't believe she was doing all that for Ellis' triflin butt because baybeeeeeee the Miami in me came out a few times while reading lol

Needless to say the ending was life! I wanted a lil more, but I understand that it's a novelette.

Great Story

I loved Fallon! She did everything in her power to keep her family together. Her husband Ellis was a complete jerk. He deserves everything that happens to him. I loved how the family stuck up for Fallon when Ellis tried his mess. I'm just glad Fallon finally realized Ellis wasn't worth the drama. I liked Nate. He is who Fallon should have been with all along. I'm happy for them. Loved this story Sam!

GREAT SHORT STORY
mat: Kindle Edition

A beautiful well written story of getting a second chance at being in love with someone from your past. I really enjoyed this book. Fallon was betrayed in the worst way possible but with the help of her family and friend she was able to have a fresh start with Nate. Would love to read more about Fallon and Nate.

Nice quick read

Nice quick read. Fallon couldn't get over the fact that her husband left her for much younger woman, but Nate may be the guy to help her get over Ellis. That fight was so funny. Very detailed for a short story.

Left me wanting more

I really enjoyed this story. I will admit that Fallon worked my nerves in the beginning. I wasn't expecting it to end so abruptly and I'm hoping there will be more to Fallon and Nate's story.

Nice quick read!

This is my first book by this author, good novella. That Ellis was total trash, I just wish I could have read that Fallon got to stick it to him in the divorce settlement, lol!

Loved it

Once again Sam did it with this holiday novella. Even though it’s a short story it was entertaining. New Love concurred in the end hopefully we get more of their story soon
Great job once again Sam J.

Family feud

Okay this was a nice quick read. Fallon has to deal with a cheating husband who dumps her. The Thanksgiving family fight was hilarious. Kinda wish we got to see where her and Nate's relationship went.

Quick Holiday Read!

I enjoyed reading this book, but would like to read more about Fallon and Nate’s budding relationship. Ellis was wrong for showing up at her family’s house the way that he did, but I know that he wished that he had put more thought into that trip.

Should read

Emotional, but realistic life journey. All I can say is Frankie and Heather gave me life. They showed a side of themselves that gave me life. But this story is about Fallon coming to terms with the changes of her life..

I know it said novella, but...

This story was way too good to be a short story!! I thoroughly enjoyed it even though I want to see it all the way through. But still a great funny, realistic and romantic story.

A Table for Two

"One man trash is another man's treasure." Fallon moves on. After a failed marriage, Fallon works on herself. But will true love find her instead?

Great story

Her husband was an asshole who needed his butt whipped by her brothers. Nate was right another man trash is another's treasure and i hope he full fills that for her to start over with someone who looked for her instead of the other way around.

First book

This was a pretty good book for my first from this author. I plan on reading the one from the snippet as well. I can’t wait to see what else she has in her back pocket.

I know that I posted a review on this but can not seem to find it. Interesting. Anywho, this was the second book of hers that I have tried to read. I did not complete the other but I did complete this one. I was not impressed. She does a current beginning and then the rest of the books is how we got there. This one had potential but ended abruptly and I felt as if it was lacking so much. I didnt feel the characters connected. The main character came off as bitter as well. There was no build up to the budding romance. It was just blah for me. If I had to choose then I would read Christina C. Jones or Alexandria House first.

Fallon seemed desperate at times. She listened to others and ended up with a buster. Ellis was the worst. But I hate when women try to keep fathers out of the kids lives to spite the him and I feel that’s what she did re thanksgiving. Chris came in and saved her heart but the development wasn’t there to their love. At least I wasn’t sold on it. I’m giving it a 3 be potential was there usually a book would be rated lower if it lacked certain elements but it has so much potential so giving it lower didn’t seem right
