Cherish Me Forever

The Maxwell Brothers

De: Layla Hagen

Narrado por: Jacob Morgan, Savannah Peachwood

Reese Maxwell meets her happy-ever-after in Layla Hagen's latest. What starts as a pretend romance soon turns into so much more...Newly divorced Dominic Waldorf is the most coveted bachelor in Chicago. At least, that’s what he thinks. I’d describe him as more of a Neanderthal with a really nice backside.

When I accidentally spill champagne on him at a charity event, he accuses me of hitting on him. Then later, I run into him in an empty coat room, and he’s convinced.

The truth is even more embarrassing.

I’m hiding from my ex-fiancé, who showed up with his new wife—my former best friend. I try to hold it together, but instead spill my guts to this handsome stranger.

Dom surprises me by suggesting an agreement: we pretend to date. I get to rub it in my ex’s face and he appears off the ‘market’. You scratch my back—I scratch yours, that sort of thing.

Dom is an excellent fake boyfriend. He’s protective and caring, and even gives me a smoking hot kiss.

Then things get complicated. The charity has another event for us to attend —out of town, and overnight.

Between late night confessions and three more smoking hot kisses—not that I’m counting—I start wondering if he’s really faking everything.

I’m certainly way past pretending.

Soon after, Dom admits that he wants to date me… me, Reese Maxwell, for real!

But my heart isn’t allowed to make any decisions anymore.

Except — maybe — this one last time…

Cherish Me Forever

I’m sad now. This book was great, but it was Reese’s story. There are no more Maxwells left that need their happily ever afters. I love the way Layla Hagen writes big families that are so close. Reese has been through hell because of her ex, so it was perfect to end with her. Plus Dom was great with her and her family.

Great series ending

I’ve been waiting for Reece’s story and Jacob and Savannah did it justice. Cherish Me Forever has everything you want in a Layla Hagen love story-strong female characters, hot alpha males, spicy romance and a tight knit family. Great way to end the Maxwells.

Everything I expected and more

Another visit with the Maxwell family and this time it’s Reese Maxwell’s story. This is a family that are very close to my heart so I was excited for Cherish Me Forever and this read was everything I expected and so much more.

Jacob Morgan and Savannah Peachwwood did a fantastic job bringing the characters and their story to life. They were spot on with emotions and the banter which made for an entertaining listen.

It was always going to be a special man that won Reese’s heart and I fell hard and fast for Dominic (Dom) Waldorf. A chance meeting soon turns into so much more when he offers to fake date her so she can save face with her jerk of an ex who recently married her ex best friend……..
Ms Hagen gives us families who feel like friends and who take over our hearts and this book is a perfect addition to this wonderful series. It’s well written with characters you can’t help bonding with. From the moment I picked this book up I was taken into my favourite world and I loved everything about this captivating journey. I smiled and I swooned as I joined Reese and Dom on their entertaining journey and I guess all I need to say is I urge you all to one click this gem of a read.

Fake Boyfriend

Dom played his part well. He was a great fake boyfriend. Fell quickly. Even though he said he'd move slow so soon after divorce and he was guarded he threw caution to the wind and was all about Reese. This was just what I needed.
Jacob Morgan makes me swoon. Savannah rocks. Both are great narrators.
This was a neat and tidy ending to the Maxwell series.

An unforgettable book

An unforgettable book

I had already read this story and I loved all the Maxwell's stories, but Reese and Dom's was particularly sweet. Listening to it was more emotional than when I read it. The narrators made a superb job. Reese and Dom's story is not easy as she has to deal with her past and insecurities caused by it. But when she meets Dom and their relationship evolves without them noticing, that is when they head to their well deserved HEA. I voluntarily reviewed an ALC of this book.

Great story and narration

I love my visits with the Maxwell family. For me it is like coming home. I feel like I have been waiting for Reese Maxwell’s story forever. I couldn’t wait to dive into Cherish Me Forever and it did not disappoint. 

This was a well written story with characters and a story line that held me captive from the first to the last chapter.

We have met Reese, a cousin of the Maxwell brothers in previous books and I knew that the man who captured her heart would be special.

I love stories where the relationship starts out as pretend and quickly morphs into more.

Dominic (Dom) Waldorf is recently divorced and has tickets on himself. From the moment they met the sparks flew, Dom convinced that Reese is hitting on him but that could not be further than the truth. She is trying to avoid her ex fiancé who is a jerk who recently married her ex best friend.

Dom surprised Reese by volunteering g to pretend to date her and this starts a chain of events that quickly snowballs.

Jacob Morgan and Savannah Peachwwood did a wonderful job with the narrating. Not only are their voices easy to listen to but they brought all the passion, love and drama to life for me. They did justice to the story that Ms. Hagen wove. Watching these two move from acquaintances to lovers was an entertaining journey that had me smiling and shaking my head; it was fun watching their relationship play out.

A wonderful addition to one of my favourite series. 

 

Organically endearing, slow burn, big heart romance.

An organically endearing, slow burn, big heart romance. Reese and Dom are strangers with a common agenda, but what happens when the plans change? With irresistible characters and unpredictable emotion, Cherish Me Forever is Hagen at her best. A flavorful heartbreaker that has addictive written all over it.

Last of this generation of the Maxwell Family- Reese’s story

Finally Reese has her own book. Dominic Waldorf is a well off fashion entrepreneur and a good match for Reese. He also has had a bad experience with an ex so there is parody. Some minor drama but mostly a romance with some sexy scenes and plenty of family scenes. Throughout the series Reese has had issues with her ex and had altered between needy, rightfully angry, annoyed, and weepy. It took a while but she finally grew a spine. Impressive given how she had a few more hits before she could confront him to get the whole truth. Great wrap for this series though I would not be surprised if Paisley starts a next generation of stories.
The narration was pretty good as both are pros but I thought some of Jacob Morgan’s sexy scenes were not as hot as usual. As great as his voice is, he sounded bored, dry, and tired especially in chapter 14. That was a disappointment; everyone has off days but it should have been redone on a better day. Anyway, if I listen again I will probably rely on reading some parts and relying on my imagination.
This one is well worth the credit.

Eh

Good story, but honestly it moved kinda slowly. Not much excitement really. The same conflict as was in the other books: Malcom suing Reese. Meh. It’s really old news at this point.

That said, the writing is excellent, the narration is stellar and the dialogue is very believable. I just wish there was more substance. The whole book was really just the MMC and FMC in love and having sex. The sexy scenes are well done though.

I just love this family

Reese and Dominic both have reasons to frown on a HEA, but when they find themselves hiding out in a coat closet together, the two figure that joining together will get through the endless stares and questions. But when her past just will not let go, Dominic finds himself wanting to help her for more personal reasons. Can the two find love when they least expect it? Or will her past be too much to overcome? Layla Hagen once again combines wonderfully characters and surrounds them in a story that the listener will not be able to shut off. Getting another glimpse of the Maxwell family put family first was just the icing on the cake. The narrators were perfectly matched to the characters.
