Only Forever

A Sweet Clean Romance (New Haven, Book 3)

By: Samantha J. Ball

Narrated by: Lisa Lynn Sandlin

He already has a family. She just wants to belong. Can they build a life together professionally and privately, or will circumstances break them apart?

Julie Rolland’s grateful for her daytime job, even if the women don’t appreciate her flirting with their male coworkers. Please, she’s just being friendly. The only man she has to stay away from is the Head of Construction, Jack. He’s part of her social group and has never shown any interest in her. Never mind that he sets her heart racing or that they share amazing chemistry while belting out karaoke songs.

Jack Carrington hasn’t had much luck when it comes to women. The one he really wants doesn’t give him the time of day except when they sing together during group nights out at the pub.

When a record deal forces them together, will they admit their feelings for one another or choose to protect themselves from potential heartache? Will Jack accept Julie as part of his family, or is she destined to be alone forever?

This is the third book in the New Haven series, following the lives of a group of people who are linked through family, friends, and employees. Although part of a series, it can be listened to as a stand-alone. A happy ending is guaranteed, and there are no cliffhangers. (No swearing and kisses only.)

Trigger warning: includes some emotional topics that are handled very carefully—death, alcoholism, and prostitution.

Music, lyrics, duty, and romance!

Only Forever is a clean, closed door contemporary romance with endearing characters who have such tremendous chemistry—and singing abilities—they’re unexpectedly signed by a recording studio. What follows is a delightful story, at times swoony and romantic, other times bittersweet and poignant. Samantha J Ball does a fantastic job crafting the plot and ensuring I cared so much about Jack and Julie that I was completely invested in their HEA. Lisa Lynn Sandlin’s narration was pitch perfect. Highly recommended!
