Description from the publisher:

Simone
I’m a bestselling romance author who weaves fantastic happily-ever-afters for my readers; yet in my personal life, I’m as single as an old maid. Every guy I’ve dated has been a complete disappointment – nothing like Evan Hanson, the sexy hero who dominates the pages of my wildly popular romance series, Forever Yours. I shouldn’t use him as a goal post. It’s not like he’s a real person.
But then Jaxson shows up and I swear he’s everything I have ever wanted in a man.
I also swear down that I recognize him…
From the pages of my romance novels.

Evan
I’ve been with Simone Storm from the beginning. This woman is divine, not only because she crafted me with the meticulous strokes of her pen, but because she is the most beautiful woman I have ever seen. For years, she’s tried to pair me with other women; women she thinks will make me a perfect match.
But they don’t.
I don’t want any of the women she has tried to offer me. I want her.
When an opportunity arises for me to present myself, I jump at it. Now I can see, hear, and touch her.
And now, I will help her craft a true happily-ever-after.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 

I wanted to love this story.  After all, who doesn’t want to fall in love with a book boyfriend who has come to life.  It had a great set up, but there are a lot of “whys” … too many to make the suspense part of the story believable.



This paragraph will have spoilers:

Why wasn’t Evan with Simone after her accident?  Why would Even wait two years after Simone’s accident to return to her?  Why wouldn’t Evan get a restraining order against Emma and sole custody of his child?



Note:  While I received this book as a gifted ARC via Booksprout, my opinions are my own and are given freely.
