Synopsis: Just imagine the perfect wedding… and then everything that could go wrong.
Viscount Camden Beckinworth had lived the life of a devil-may-care rake until his parents’ untimely death.

By then, the pesky little sister of his two best childhood friends had grown into a lovely woman.
After two disastrous London seasons, Susanna Lorican accepted a marriage proposal from a neighborhood friend and, while she had adored him since childhood, she never expected the man of her dreams to reciprocate her feelings. She planned the perfect Christmas Eve wedding but she didn’t expect a snowstorm to barrel through the English countryside on the morning of.

My Review:
Forever Winter is a short story about what happens when absolutely everything goes wrong on one’s wedding day. Camden and Susanna are a wonderful couple, strongly in love and eager to begin their married life together. But having the Christmas wedding of their dreams comes with many obstacles, including bad weather, dress mishaps, and more.
I love the main characters and their shared history. They’ve known each other since childhood, and their feelings have only grown. They see the best in each other, and it’s clear that this is a true love match, unlike many of the other matches in her family. Susanna is kind-hearted and intelligent, and she is determined to marry for love, like her parents. Though her relationship with her sisters is strained, it says more about their characters than hers. Susanna is truthful and sincere, and her eagerness to be wed fuels the story.
Camden is a wonderful man and is wholeheartedly part of Susanna’s family. They have embraced him as a son, and this ringing endorsement says so much about his character. I like that Camden treats Susanna as his equal and sees her worth, not just as his wife and mother to his children, but also as a smart and strong woman who can help his business prosper and grow. Theirs is a sweet and deep love that is sure to last a lifetime.
A quick and warm historical romance with an unforgettable wedding, this is a great story for readers looking for a short and charming read. I’m so thankful to the author for a copy of the book in exchange for my honest review.

I have a few of her books now on my TBR, but I haven’t picked one up yet. Hopefully soon. Great review!
Thanks! I really like her arresting Onyx series if you like romantic suspense. Though those are way spicier than this one. Forever Winter is perfect if your looking for a quick and sweet romance! 🙂
Thank you, Julie! Oh, yes. The Arresting Onyx books are worlds apart from Forever Winter. I’ve found my niche in writing steamy, but I’m quite pleased with this sweeter one. <3
They’re both so good!! 🙂
