5 SMOOCHES!

* * * * * * * * * *

SYNOPSIS:

Jack Sutton was the man I didn’t want to need.

His know-it-all attitude. His annoying suggestions. His outlook on life.

He was determined to help me while I had resolved to figure it out on my own.

But he taught me things I’d forgotten.

How to trust. How to believe in myself. Who I was.

The problem?

I went and fell in love with him.

Tatum Knox was the disaster I should have walked away from.

Her ruined reputation. Her failing business. Her chaotic life.

She hated me at first sight and yet intrigued me all at the same time.

I was only supposed to be there six months.

I was supposed to use that time to make amends for things I’d done wrong.

Instead I fell in love with her.

They say it’s better to have loved and lost, then not to have loved at all. Does that hold true when the love is based on a lie to begin with?

 

(THEN YOU HAPPENED is a STANDALONE enemies to lovers, small town romance. Full-length at one hundred and seven thousand words)

REVIEW:

Bromberg delivers an emotional and passionate romance in Then You Happened with a small town, country feel. This was the kind of story that sucks you in from the first page, the kind of story you can’t stop yourself from reading—and get mad when you have to put it down. Bromberg did a fantastic job with the pacing of this story, building the emotion and laying the groundwork. While this wasn’t a suspenseful novel, there definitely was a bit of that quality to her storytelling here as I found myself on the edge of my seat and anxious a couple of times.

This story was intense in every sense of the word, and Bromberg sets that stage from the prologue with a heart-breaking scene that had me choked up and teary-eyed before I even got to the first chapter. Tatum Knox, the heroine, was a broken, angry, hostile woman—with good reason. It seems that nearly every person in her life has betrayed her in some way or at some point. She was guarded, she was permanently on the defensive, and she was distrustful to her marrow. And then onto her ranch saunters the sexy cowboy, Jack Sutton, full of secrets, swagger and salvation, with his wild promises about turning her operation around.

Then You Happened was full of heart, burning with heat and passion, and I simply couldn’t put it down. I felt all the feels and cried all the tears as I devoured it. I loved these characters, I loved their story, and Kristy blew me away with the depth of emotion she conveyed here. Five stars from me for Then You Happened by K. Bromberg!
