I can't think of a better title for this story/first in the series. This book was amazing, but if "the best is yet to come" just think how fantastic the next book will be. Summer Lake here I come!!!!!!
If you have read Now That I've Found You, and if not boy are you missing out, then you are familiar with the small town of Summer Lake in the Adirondacks. Squeee!! We get to go back to the quaint little town and visit with all of the amazing people.
Do you remember Calvin, the mayor??? Mega hunk is the hero in this story. We get to deal with his tragic past along with him. We get to cry for him. We get to cheer him on. That man has an inner strength that had my heart pounding and my emotions rolling all over the place. He gets a second chance with the love of his life, Sarah.
Sarah is back home to honor her father, but she has ulterior motives. The reasons put her and us on an emotional roller coast, a wild ride that continuing throughout the story. Sarah is so lost. Thankfully she had her grandmother to guide her. And poor Calvin is stuck in the middle.
I never realized how great emotional overload could be within a book. Calvin and Sarah made mistakes ten years ago. It will take determination and a strong desire to move past their fears.

Man a lot of tears, but a good book regardless.

Calvin was a great hero and made a choice that not many would make at such a young age. The tragedy that for him and Sarah apart had to do with his family, and while I don't think that he handled his relationship with Sarah well at that point in time, he still made the right choice in a rough situation. I found Sarah a little harder to like, but she definitely redeemed herself in the end. She was supposed to be this super driven person, but I didn't entirely get that as her personality. I think the small town life fit much better. This wasn't my favorite Bella Andre book, but it was still a sweet and well written story. It's a good start to this spin off series and I will definitely be reading the others when they come out.

Bella has done it again!!! Another great romance and a spin off from Sullivan Series. Calvin and Sarah were high school sweethearts and ten years on they reunite in Summer Lake, sparks fly and romance blooms once again. Looking forward to more books in this new series.

It's funny how much I enjoy her writing under this name over her as Bella Andre.

Sometimes young love is young love but sometimes it’s more than that. If ten years later, that attraction is just as strong and neither of you have been able to move on, well then young love has grown old.
The Best is Yet to Come follows the story of Sarah and Calvin as they rekindle what they once had and begin to realise they don’t want to live without each other anymore (if only it was that easy). With Sarah living in the city, work in the mix and a child to consider can they male it work.
A heartwarming romance novel at its best. Can the most powerful emotion of all counteract all the logistical problems and if so will it work out.
My first Bella Andre novel and definitely not my last.

Received a ARC for review.
I love Bella Andre and I love the Sullivans. I liked this book, but it wasn't awesome like the Sullivans. The female lead character was not very likable. I loved Calvin and I loved the town, but she just rubbed me the wrong way, only in the end she redeemed herself.
I just couldn't get her aversion to the town, it didn't make sense, I mean if you had a bad experience I could understand, but she had a wonderful childhood there and she had wonderful parents, so really didn't get her hostility towards the town.
But giving it 4 stars because I did like the story over all and I did like the ending. And I will read the next one in the series.

Not my favorite of Bella Andre's books. And now that I'm writing this review, I see there are two authors.
Just a bit repetitive for my taste. I like to read a book where the author assumes the reader has basic reading comprehension skills. I don't say that to be snarky, but I just don't need things repeated to me throughout the entire novel.
