Synopsis

Psychotherapist, Madelyn St. Claire, has all the answers. At least, that’s what the plaques on her wall say. There isn’t a fear she’s met that she hasn’t helped a client blast through. So, why can’t she work through her own?

Oh, that’s right…

She’s been so busy helping everyone else through their challenges over the years, including her best friends—the GEGs—that she never even realized she had any of her own true fears. Then again, she didn’t have a reason to until he came along. Cellist, Declan Pierce, can hit all the right notes, as long as he’s hitting them on stage. When he’s off . . . well—he’s off. So, he keeps his head down and tries to stay focused on his career and his son, Hunter. They have shared in a trauma that would bring most closer. However, theirs has only weighted their bond down, slowly causing them to drift further and further apart.

That is until a beacon of light shines through. That beacon is about five-foot-nothing, all curves, heart, brains, and no BS. But that is only part of this story.

It’s a long road to Happily Ever After. Maddie and Declan learn that it takes more than just the two of them to get there, and it’s not a smooth stroll. It’s not meant to be, though, is it? Life can give you whiplash. Buckle in and hold tight to those closest to you because, honestly…

It takes a village to make love epic.

Review by: Leeann

This story is a little bit different to the 1^st two books in this series.

This is Maddie’s Story. Well, Maddie & Declan’s story.. I have to say, as an Aussie, I really got Declan because his character is from the land down under!

This book contains the usual Jacquelyn Ayres humour but it also has a more serious tone to it at times.

We see a completely different side to Maddie in this story. We see her at her best & also at her worst. Of course the rest of the GEG’s are present

and they are their usual entertaining selves. We get to see more of the dialogue with the GEG men In this book too and let me tell you they are a freaking

crack up. At times I had tears of laughter running down my face. They are learning to give the girls a run for their money that is for sure!

I really love the relationship Maddie has with Shannon (Charley & CiCi’s mum). Similarly Declan has the same type of relationship with Rosie. She is his housekeeper/surrogate mum.

These two strong opinionated women play a huge role in Declan & Maddie’s lives and the story would not be the same without them.

Jacquelyn Ayres has once again taken two complex characters & brought them together amid the chaos of the GEG’s and their busy lives in general. The story itself

Is entertaining and she has shown how sometimes even with the best of intentions, plans can go awry, and that sometimes, there is not a damned thing you can do about it.

You can only strap yourself in and buckle up for the ride.

I would suggest when reading this book, you come prepared. You will need, tissues, depends & wine.. Lots of wine. This story is highly emotional, highly entertaining and although

tensions often run high, at the end of the day, Maddie has her GEG’s and no matter what life throws her way they will be there to back her up 100%.

Everyone needs to read this book, actually no, read the whole series & you will see why Ms Ayres is such a highly appreciated & acknowledged author.

Well worth spending your money & one clicking!!

Meet the Author

I am a domestic engineer (born and raised in NJ) whose sole responsibility is to guide three young, impressionable kids into becoming phenomenal adults. This challenging yet rewarding work requires a lot of love (coffee), patience (wine), and determination (periodic exorcisms). I work this magic from the beautiful state of New Hampshire.

Before becoming a domestic goddess (not really), I spent over a decade in the medical field, where I wore more hats than the Queen.

I have loved the written word and the great escape it provides since I was a little girl. When I wasn't reading about people and the places they lived, I was creating my own characters and adventures.

Finding myself again through my writing in The Lost & Found Series, The One, and The GEG Series has been nothing short of a dream come true. Also, it makes people feel better when I laugh randomly or talk to myself, knowing it's my characters and not "the voices" . . . that would be creepy.
