Publisher's summary

After her latest ill-fated attempt to find a forever relationship of her own, Tori Kennedy is content with connecting the dots for others, bringing them together in pursuit of lifetime love. Fresh off of the demise of her marriage, she decides to take advantage of an opportunity to do something a little—okay, a lot—crazy, and heavily fueled by an overload of emotions.

Thinking that her impulsive decision and its disastrous results are behind her, Tori moves forward with her pursuit of a happily single existence, until her best friend contacts her with a request that places a constant reminder in her life: Avery.

Avery Anderson is the epitome of “the kind of guy your momma warned you about.” Handsome, successful, charming…and not at all interested in being roped into anything that resembles love. Tori ending up in his bed doesn’t surprise him at all—it’s just what he does—but his feelings afterwards? That’s another story. An ultimatum placed on him by his little sister puts him back in arm’s reach of the pretty matchmaker that he can’t get off of his mind, but she’s not taking the bait this time.
Tori just wants to be rid of him so that she can move on with her life, and it’s not Avery’s style to chase someone who doesn’t want to be caught. When both parties are content to let the spark flicker out, can love—or something like that—still lead the way to forever?

Finding Forever is a full length novel, at 75K words.

Not your norm

Tori got on my nerves. It was a little too much angst for me and I can usually deal with it but ION LIKE TORI!! This was utterly ridiculous. Made no sense to do the man like she did and be silly the entire book.

Cute Story

Overall both narrators did a good job. On to the next book in this series.

Hard to listen to…

The narrators need more practice. You can tell that they aren’t familiar with CCJ’s work. The tone was off until the very end. The storyline was okay, the narration made it hard to get into. I’m a true fan so I’m going to continue the series with hopes of improvement.

Loved It!

I loved this story! It's funny how love had escaped the matchmaker of all people. The narrators were new to me but did a great job! CCJ never disappoints!

Relationship

I found this book to be an Enjoyable Read!!! It depicted a Sister/ brother relationship, friendship and girl code relationship, and self reservations vs a relationship.

Finding Forever

The title says it all. Tori and Avery are two people looking for something and find it in each other. That sister was a mess I’m glad they got her straight. Cause sis you were just in my position boo-hooing about I can’t find a good man. The new to me narrators did a good job 👍🏽 👍🏽

I wanted to like it…

I am a CCJ fan and have listened to/read the majority of her catalog! However, I could not get into this story due to the Narrators. Both are new to me and unfortunately, they just do not give the story justice. I stopped listening halfway and will just pickup the book. The storyline seemed to be good but the narration not so much.

love.....love

Great read!!! I love Avery and Tori
the plot was awesome and gave hope

No So Good Narrators

I wish I had of read the book instead of listening the narrators were a little emotionless and sometimes boring.

This was not it for me.

I usually like CCJ’s books, but this did not do it for me. I was not an fan which I’m not sure if I will buy the remaining series.
