- Love Me Forever
2
Sometimes the end is just the beginning… Viticulturist Joey Harper’s organic vineyard is under siege from neighboring landowners with chemical sprays, wanting to turn a fast profit, and someone purchasing large tracts of land under incredible secrecy. But Joey’s not someone who dwells on her own troubles. She has only one wish—following the still-birth of her sister’s first child, she prays her much loved younger sister may conceive again. Using her inherited gift for magic, she enlists the aid of the ancient walnut tree which towers majestically over her organic vineyard. What she doesn’t realize is that her one wish, begets another, and her unselfish desire for her sister’s happiness sends love to her—in the form of a most unsuitable and irresistible admirer. Venetian winemaking tycoon Tomasso Rivetti has it all: a loving family, good looks, and a considerable fortune. When he ventures Down Under to New Zealand, underneath his apparently perfect world, cracks begin to appear…and no one is more surprised than Tomasso when the billionaire lifestyle he takes for granted is turned upside down by a chance encounter. But despite Tomasso’s determined pursuit of Joey’s affection, her broken heart remains closed—to protect herself and her vineyard from a terrible threat. Distance keeps her safe. But as a final battle draws close, Joey and Tomasso are drawn irresistibly together. And while they succumb to the heat between them, they both know there can be no tomorrow… If you enjoy stories with a touch of magic and fantasy and with that so important happy ending, you'll love this powerful new love story. ‘Tugs at the heartstrings’ ‘I love Mollie Mathews’ ‘Heart-warming and beautiful with passion’ ‘Love Me Forever has a lovely mystical feel about it, with deep longings being experienced by the characters.’

Mollie Mathews
MOLLIE MATHEWS writes fun, sexy, passionate contemporary romance. She discovered her first love story on a trip to Paris when she was thirteen, and she’s continued to read them ever since. She was born a storyteller. As a child Mollie often had a pen in her hand and dreamed of being a writer. She wrote her first story at the age of six. It was published in the children’s section of the Sunday paper. Seeing her story in print became addictive and she continued writing short stories and poems while getting a ‘real’ job. After trying out a few fascinating careers she now lives her dream job as a writer, combining business with wild pleasure. Mollie passionately believes in the power of love to transform people’s lives. Her stories are unashamedly positive, optimistic, full of fun and sizzling passion. She has always believed authors are pens in the hand of writing goddesses sending love letters to the world, and loves it when readers write to her saying that her books gave them hope and courage during tough times. Mollie follows the sun, dividing her time between New Zealand and exotic locations—wherever she intends setting her next romance novel. She lives with her very own romantic hero, Lorenzo—tall, dark, terribly handsome and fluent in Spanish! Besides writing and reading, she enjoys anything creative. She’s an award-winning artist, and loves photography, sculpture and gardening. After living in Wellington, New Zealand for all her life, she now resides in the gorgeous Bay of Islands. Mollie loves to hear from readers. You can contact her through Facebook and Twitter.
