This is the sort of feel good love story that I will read time and time again. When we first meet Drew and Mandy they are college freshman. He’s a bit sulky because his parents put one of his older siblings first (again) and she’s a ray of sunshine that looks for the positive in life. They spend an eight hour bus trip talking. In that time frame, Drew comes to realize life is what he makes of it, if he looks for the negative that’s what he’s going to find but if he looks for the positive…well you get the idea! Before going their separate ways, Drew asks for Mandy’s number. She’s glad to give it because she felt a connection too. Fate had other plans for these two because Drew’s phone disappears and it’s eight long years before their paths cross again!

Amanda, life has sucked the Mandy out of her, is now a guidance counselor at a school. She’s not much on the holidays anymore, or dating for that matter. Her coworker Matthew is determined to see her enjoy this holiday season, so he sets her up on a blind date with his brother Andy. There’s a lot of understandable internal conflict on Amanda’s part before she finally caves. Imagine her surprise when Andy turns out to be Andrew aka Drew…the boy from the bus!

Sparks fly and there is a definite happy ending!

A new series by Ms. Morano. This book is about Andrew - Brianna and MJ’s (from Remember Me - currently on Vella) younger brother.

Do you believe in fate? Andrew really doesn’t but that’s all he has after meeting the girl of his dreams on a bus ride home from college. In spite of searching for her it seems she will never be more than a memory of what could have been.

At least until you agree to a blind date set up by your big brother - with his co worker! And there she was - his girl! As they explore their feelings during the holidays will they live up to each other’s memories, dreams and expectations?

This is a really cute novella - just right for one of those snippets of time when you just need a feel good, pick me up holiday story.

Sweet Second Chance Novella

Remember You was an adorable short read about love lost and found again. Andrew "Drew" was taking the bus home for Christmas and met his Christmas angel on board, Mandy. During the 8 hour trip home, they bonded, and Drew knew he'd met his "one". With her number saved, he planned on meeting up with her during the break until he realized that somewhere after leaving the station, he'd lost his phone and the only place he had her number.

Years later, they meet again during a chance set up by Drew's brother who worked with Amanda, "Mandy". Now that he's found her again, Drew refuses to let her go again.

This was a wonderful Christmas novella. Loved reading it.

I recieved an ARC for my honest review.

Andrew met Amanda on a bus after his first semester of his freshman year of college, but when he lost his phone (and her number with it), he never saw her again. Ten years later, he still can't get the bubbly girl from the bus out of his head. So when Amanda shows up as his blind date, Andrew is determined not to let her get away.

Wow!!!! I absolutely loved this second chance romance. Even though it was a short novella, it didn't feel rushed or badly written. I loved how Andrew and Amanda were able to find their way back to each other, even if it took many years. Their love is so sweet and pure, and I'm looking forward to reading more in this series.

What a sweet Christmas novella. Drew and Mandy have a chance meeting in college when both ride the same bus home, but Drew loses his phone and Mandy's number that was saved on it. They finally have their second chance and meet again through wonderful circumstances. Drew is determined not to let Mandy slip out of his hands again. This is such a wonderfully sweet Christmas novella and the perfect book to read while drinking your hot chocolate and enjoying some peaceful reading!

What a cute instalove novella. I love when someone works there way into your heart and it is impossible for you to not remember them. This one was quick to mend the emotional damage and transition to the deserving HEA. These characters are so sweet and so deserving of this love story.

I read this book in one sitting and love this book so much. While reading this, novella I couldn't put it down. This story was sweet and Christmassy. If you like to watch Christmas Hallmark movies, this book feels like that.

Remember you is a second chance romance story, and this is a great book. This book was well written, and for a short story, it had the right amount of pacing. Amanda and Andrew had a sweet love story. And I absolutely can't wait for the next book.
