Forever
A second chance for romance...
Hidden in Graystone Manor is a book
containing all the dark secrets of Harmony Harbor, and Ava DiRossi is
determined to find it. No one—especially not her ex-husband, Griffin Gallagher—can
ever discover what really tore her life apart all those years ago. With Griffin
back in town, it's more important than ever that she find the book before
someone else does. Because her ex is still angry with her for leaving him. And
he still has no idea Ava never stopped loving him...
Ava is no longer the vibrant, happy
woman Griffin had once loved and married, and he would do anything to bring
back the sparkle to her brilliant green eyes. But what's never changed are the
sexy sparks of attraction between Ava and Griffin, and he won't give her up
again without a fight. He knows there's the real possibility of a future
together...if the truth doesn't burn the bridge between them forever.
Ava and Griffin were in love and seemed to have a wonderful marriage, until evil in disguised as a friend, entered their lives and destroyed everything they had, not that Griffin ever knew what happened to change Ava, all he knew was Ava filed for a divorce and broke his heart.
After fleeing to Harmony Harbor, and finding a job with Giffin's grandmother Collen, she reveal her secret, knowing that Colleen would protect it. It was only after Colleen died, did Ava realize that Colleen has written her secret in her diary, but the diary has gone missing and Ava is scared that her secret will be revealed.
But add to that stress, Griffin is back in Harmony Harbor and newly single after his second divorce, but he was shocked to see just how run down Ava is! Especially her shoes! She seemed to have lost that sparkle, but Griffin is still very much in love with Ava, even though he was hurt by her actions.
But things don't go smoothly for Ava and Griffin, especially when a pregnant ex wife arrives and Ana's painful secret is revealed! Are Griffin and Ava ever destined to be together?
Wow! This book really packs a punch! And not just one!! Boy oh boy do the hits keep coming and I have barely scratched the surface with this gut wrenching story. Even though I'm not normally keen on stories that feature ghosts, the author has done an amazing job of keeping the integrity of the story, with her truly spectacular writing.
I give Starlight Bridge 4 stars!

She sensed Griffin rising to his
feet and heard him placing his mug on the desk. And then he was there, crouched
in front of her. He took her mug, setting it on the floor before he gently
smoothed the rough pads of his fingers over her cheek. “You know it kills me to
see you cry.”
“Still?” she murmured without
looking at him.
“Yeah, looks like,” he said,
sounding as though the admission cost him.
A tiny flicker of hope ignited
inside her. She smothered it, unwilling to put herself in the position of being
disappointed. She didn’t think her heart could withstand another blow today.
“I know you did more than smooth the
way for my father, Griffin. I don’t believe Gino’s monthly pension checks and
insurance will come close to covering the cost. I need to know what I owe you.
I doubt I can pay it all at once though, so maybe we could come up with a
monthly payment plan?”
At her suggestion, a muscle pulsed
in his clenched jaw, and his eyes narrowed. She was familiar with that look. It
didn’t bode well for her repayment plan. And maybe because of that small hope
that refused to be denied, she raised her hand to trace his stubbled jaw with
her finger. “You know that look always annoyed me,” she said, thinking back to
how long it had been since she’d touched him this way.
“Yeah, and you always knew how to
get rid of it. Never could hold out against you for long.” His eyes darkened as
though remembering their standoffs always ended in bed.
“What are we doing?” she whispered,
the heat in his eyes weakening her resolve. She had to know if it was just her
imagination. She’d deal with the consequences later.
“I—”
The study door swung open, and her
cousin rushed in. “Ava, are—Oh, I…” Sophie’s gaze moved from Griffin to Ava.
“Am I interrupting?”
Griffin rose to his feet, and Ava
didn’t know if it was relief or regret she saw on his face.
He glanced at his watch. “I better
get going. I have to meet up with Sully.”
Ah, so it had been relief after all,
she thought, fighting to keep the disappointment from showing on her face.
Sophie smiled, stepping in front of
Griffin as he walked to the door. “Welcome home,” she said, giving him a hug.
“We’re so glad you took the job.”
“Job?” Ava asked, and there it was
again, hope. Only this time it came out in her voice.
Griffin turned with his hand on the
doorknob. “Sully offered me a job with the Coast Guard. Thought it was about
time I came home.” He held her gaze. “We’ll talk later. If you need me, call.”
Sophie stared at her, openmouthed.
“He…You.” Sophie found her voice and looked from the door to Ava. “What did I
just interrupt?”
“I’m not sure,” she murmured, glad
she was sitting, otherwise her legs might have given out.
