Publisher's Summary

HER SECRETS ARE UGLY.

They've kept her from coming home.

Now she's risking everything to return.

She thought it would be a quick trip. Show up. Say the right words. Then she'd be gone.

She never counted on meeting him.

The football star.

The single dad.

He knew she was shattered by some event she kept hidden under lock and key.

The clues on her body failed to reveal her secrets - unlike scars on his body that clearly publicized his.

The clock was ticking, giving him only a short time to uncover the true meaning of the flower branded into her flesh.

Because if she got back on that plane, he knew it would be forever.

Grab your tissues and listen to this sexy romance now!

Hero is Mason . Heroine is Piper .
The author Samantha Christy knows how to draw you in with the first paragraph. There are lots of Twists and turns . You get a glimpse of one thing and right when you think you have it figured out the story takes you on another twist .

Black Roses is one of the best contemporary romance book I have ever read. It has it love, hate, denial and best of all great endings

"It's only me Sweetheart"

I read this book a little over a year ago (twice actually) and listening to it still gave me all the feels if not more! Piper and Mason's struggles with the nightmares that haunt them and their issues with trust make this story full of angst but of course, in true Samantha Christy fashion, we get our HEA!! Love the alternating POV and the epilogue ❤️❤️❤️

she never thought she could love so many

Black Roses by Samantha Christy first I have to say this is my first audible book and I found it very exciting to hear someone else read the story and hear the voices of other people.

piper's story was very heartbreaking to me I feel she had a rough time when she was young I also feel that it was such a wonderful love story that she could rise above what she went through.

I found Black Roses to be funny where I actually laughed out loud quite a few times I found it to where I wanted to cry sad tears and happy I thought it was funny the way Piper and Mason teased about moving to New York almost like a little game that they played.

I absolutely love the Mitchell sisters everything about these books are wonderful I recommend it to adult readers.. they're funny sexy sad sometimes a little scary but they are downright sweet love stories stories that will make you want to find a relationship just like the Mitchell sisters have all found.... well done Samantha Christy I am looking forward to your next book

OMG such a good book and narration!

The Michell Sisters Novels are the first books I’ve read from Samantha Christy and I read all three in a matter of three days. Out of three I like Piper and Masons story the best. I think the ending is more true to real life. Where my jaw was dropping and smiling in Purple Orchids, my eyes were misty in White Lilies, Black Roses had my lips quivering and a tear or two falling. This was such a great story.

I won’t give anything away about the book but I think this is a story that deserves a second and even a third read from me. And even though all three can be read independently of the other I think a person would appreciate it more if they are read in order.....Loved all three

So glad to have found a Great New Author!!

Where does Black Roses rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

Top Ten

What did you like best about this story?

The male and female narration changed with each chapter.

Have you listened to any of Lauren Sweet and Gary Furlong ’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

Yes, the first two books in this series.This novel was the best by far because Piper was so strong to survive her trauma and a sense of have humor while standing up for herself!! Best Mitchell Sister Story ever!!

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

What doesn't kill you makes you stronger!!

Any additional comments?

I just finished listening to Samantha Christy’s trilogy “The Mitchell sisters”. I am so glad to have happened across this author. She writes so beautifully. You fall straight into her story effortlessly. In the first two books narration by the hero and heroine in book one and two is narrated in parts. First the male’s point of view then the female’s, however in the last book the narration is alternates in chapters. The point of view sharing in Audible is so much better when the male and female parts are interchangeable throughout the story not half and half. Anyway the stories are incredible and I am so glad to have found a new author!!

Great series

Wow another great Mitchell sisters story, Can Mason help Piper Mitchell overcome her fear of men, can Piper help Mason trust women again. A story of loss, heartache, trauma and new beginnings.

O M G

This is the third Mitchell sister book I have listened too.
All of them are good and bring different emotions to the table.
Have your tissues ready it’s a real tear jerker.
I loved it.

I loved this book an emotional roller coaster but so worth it

I absolutely loved this I have the book on my kindle and also on audible. It is such a great story and has you crying and happy whilst reading or listening xx

The Beginning of Their Forever....

A beautiful ending to a fantastic series. Thank you Samantha for this beautiful story.

Have you ever wished you could just jump into a book and smack the bejesus out of someone? Well believe me when I tell you... You're gonna want too now. Cassidy, the mother of Masson' s daughter Hailey, is such a piece of work. The way she manipulates and cinives her way through life is so frustrating but (if I may be frank) the bitch finally goes down. Won't tell you how because you will have to listen to find out. 😉

Piper has barely survived after a traumatic event in her life that brought tears to my eyes, and fears she will never know what the love of a man is like. She has been scared for life. How will she ever overcome what has happened to her. She decides to leave her family behind and takes off with her long time friend as she is her only support and strength until Masson comes along.

Masson a football star and a single dad, is every woman's fantasy and dream come true but even at his younge age of only 22, his only focus is his daughter Hailey and football. He doesn't need a woman in his life. The only woman in his life is Hailey until he meets Piper. Their life intertwines suddenly and even though the beginning was rocky, they prove to us that dreams do come true and that no matter what life has thrown at you, you can overcome anything if you believe.

I loved that Samantha had a duel POV. Piper and Masson shared chapter for chapter and it was very interesting to follow the story this way. I loved each character for their individual personalities. This story is full of sass, laughter, some pain and tears, joy and most of all love, respect, courage and happiness. Thank you again Samantha for your genius mind and way of words.

brilliant

love this book I have read it may times,listening to it was like reading it again for the fist time :) would highly recommend
