Forevermore by Lauren Royal
4.0
Forevermore is part of Lauren Royal’s Jewel Trilogy. The events take place after books one and two (Amethyst and Emerald) but before book three (Amber). Royal, as we’ve come to expect from her, gives us amazingly tortured characters that we can’t help but fall in love with.
Clarice is a woman who was dealt difficult blows in her life. She was married at the tender age of 15 to a man who was almost three times her age. Not only was he much older than her, but you’re lead to believe he was physically and verbally abusive. Years after his death Lord Cainewood (of Emerald) brings her a little girl who is need of a home. Having always wished for children she takes the little girl in, vowing it will be the start to a happier life for herself. It’s been a year since she adopted Mary and her life has never seemed happier. Cameron, on the other hand, has led a sort of charmed life, living in Scotland and caring for his family’s ancestral lands. Until seeing Clarice at his cousin’s wedding he realizes he’s never been in love (how sad!!). Watching him try to win Clarice’s heart and squash her fears with his tenderness and kindness was joyful. His scenes with little Mary were beautiful and made me love him even more!
Final Thoughts: If you haven’t yet added this series to your to-read pile you’re seriously missing out.
