Now if only he could stop thinking about the love of his life and how he will survive the rest of his days without her… She was Elisabeth all her life until Jared made her his Lizzie… Elisabeth “Lizzie” Sutter knows she has no business chasing Jared after she turned down his lovely, heartfelt marriage proposal in a moment of sheer panic.

REVEIW

Sweet, Short, Happily-Ever-After Love Story

This is a novella. It’s a surprise bonus from Marie Force for her readers that can never get enough of Gansett Island. This is a continuation of Jared’s story. We first met Billionaire Jared James in Time for Love when he returns to his house on Gansett Island with a broken heart after his girlfriend Lizzie refused his marriage proposal. After 40 days of nursing his broken heart, Jared wakes up and decides to accept that it’s over. He arranges for a cookout for the friends that helped him thru his worst time.

Lizzie knew almost immediately that she made a terrible mistake turning down Jared’s proposal. She’s been trying to track him down ever since. After daily visits to Jared’s office, his personal assistant finally tells her where he is. It was heartwarming to see Lizzie was persistent to find out where Jared went and to try to make things right. They made compromises and found that money doesn’t buy love. We see glimpses of some of our favorite island couples and I look forward to reading about Jared and Lizzie in future books.
