Maya Jackson has worked for a renowned New York City bridal gown brand for years and dreams of becoming Head Designer. She has the talent, she just needs a chance to showcase her unique style.

While home for only a few months, she’s thrilled to find an opportunity at the local bridal gown boutique, never expecting sparks to fly with its owner...

A military veteran and widowed father, Derek Sullivan hopes to save Always a Bride from bankruptcy in order to preserve the legacy of his family.

When Derek begins to fall for the lovely Maya, he knows there’s no future. But destiny has its own plans, and these two lonely people with big hearts discover that coming home to love is the best gift life can give.

I enjoyed the storyline. It and the characters were

[Katrina Thaxton · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

I love the story line. How are she worked to make her dreams come true and also taking a risk on love. They was this author waved in the history of Maya ‘s parents and most importantly her mother’s life. Also the history of Charleston SC and what Derek was dealing with the murder of his wife and how to raise his daughter. This story has its ups and downs on the life of the bridal industry and how Maya handle it along with her health. The ending is excellent. It’s a lite summer read. I can’t wait to read more from this author.
