Mason and Aria met in college and dated for a year before Mason abruptly ended their relationship. Since walking away from the best love he ever had, he has done the mental & emotional work to prepare himself to be the man Aria needs. Mason won't let anything get in the way of him earning Aria's love back. Will Aria accept him back into her life or will his efforts be in vain?

This is my first time reading a book by Jennilynn Wyer and it won't be the last. Love Everlasting is PERFECTION! I went into this blind, as I do with 99% of the books I read, and I was pleasantly surprised. I felt so many emotions while reading this. I love second-change romance stories and this is probably one of the best I've ever read. I could not put this novella down!

The characters are so good! I loved Mason and Aria together. Their chemistry is *chef's kiss*. Mason is swoon-worthy! I definitely needed this book in my life. I was emotionally wrecked in the best way possible. This novella is phenomenal. The writing, plot, and characters are great! I can't wait to read more by Jennilynn Wyer.

Thank you Jennilynn Wyer and Wordsmith Publicity for providing me with an e-ARC of this book in exchange for my honest review. Opinions expressed in this review are my own.

One of the best executions of the Second Chance trope I have ever read.

Aria and Mason are so sweet and adorable together and their unending love is the stuff of epic romances. My only complaint—if you can even call it that—is it was all over too fast. Even that though was perfection because every word and moment was utilized to its fullest potential by solely focusing on these two.

I am 100% going to be reading the rest of the books in the Fallen Brook series after this.

For anyone who knows me, you know that the Fallen Brook series is my kryptonite. I have been WAITING for another peek back into the lives of my comfort characters. This was probably the best novella I have ever read, though I'm not surprised because it's Jennilynn, this lady can do anything. I LOVE MASON MAN. That man is scrumdiddlyumptious. I normally am not a fan of second chance romance but the pace was perfect and the chemistry between Aria and Mason was *chef's kiss*. If you have read the other books in the Fallen Brook series you would have picked up on the mention of funny little tree at the beginning of the novella and IT MADE ME SOOOOOOOO HAPPY.

One of my favourite tropes in a book is "it's always been you" it hits me right in the feels and this book has it might I say. You KNOW it's about to go down when the guy moves next door to the girl he fumbled with because he still loves her. When is it my turn....💀

Any who, go read it!

Love Everlasting #7 in the Fallen Brook Series by Jennilynn Wyer

5⭐️
2.5🌶️

Tropes

Second chance romance
Small town
Sports romance
Forced proximity

Jennilynn has a beautiful way of creating characters that feel real to me as a reader. I’m always captivated from the first page and want to read everything in one go but at the same time draw it out so that it doesn’t end!

Second chance romance is one of my favourite tropes and this is no exception, Mason and Aria are everything. The angst, banter, steam; so good!

Mason broke Aria’s heart, for good intentions but still he has a lot to make up for. He recognises that he wasn’t in a good place and left. But when he finally manages to sort himself out he goes straight after her, and wont let anything get in his way.

Mason is out to prove himself and make sure Aria knows he isn’t running away this time!

I highly recommend reading this series.

Spice: 2.5🌶

This is a second chance, short novella. I enjoy reading this author. She has a way to draw you in and keep you there until the very end. I haven't read a bad book yet. I loved every second of this book.

Mason is back and determined to win Aria back. He ran when Aria said I love you. He didn't say it back and got scared. Now he's moved in next door and will do what it takes to get her back.

Aria had her guard up. Mason broke her heart, and she isn't quite ready for him to be back. He is determined and will show her that he loves her.

I loved that he came back. I wish it was longer because I loved every minute of Mason and him as a character. This book was very enjoyable. Even though I'm a smut girl and there was very little spice, I enjoyed the second chance trope. Love this author and love this book.

Tropes:
- Second Chance
- Neighbors
- Forced Proximity
- Possessive MMC
- Small Town
- Banter

I will admit that it's the cover of this book that caught my attention. Then, since second chance romance is totally my jam, the blurb sealed the deal for me.

When Aria told Mason that she loved him, he couldn't say it back. Instead, he ran. Now, he's back and he's ready to win back her heart. He'll do whatever it takes including moving in next door.

This novella is the 7th book in the Fallen Brook series, but I haven't read any of those other books (yet). I'll be adding them to my TBR now though. I loved these characters and the world created here. Since this is a novella, I wasn't expecting this second chance at love to be drawn out too much, but I was still surprised by the pace of this story. I loved it! This was a refreshing read with just the right amount of drama and plenty of feels, all packed into a quick read that I devoured.

Absolutely loved this story of Mason and Aria. I am new to this author but really enjoyed the second chance love story. It made me intrigued about the other books in this series and have started on the first book. Mason is someone who has gone on a journey, in fact many journeys that made him feel he couldn't give Aria what she needed. But when he finally sorts himself out he goes straight after her, and is not letting anything get in his way. He lets his decision and intention be crystal clear from the start and thankfully she hasn't moved on! Really enjoyable second chance small town romance.

Love Everlasting is a quick read, second chance romance.
When Mason is Aria’s new neighbor, she is determined to not let him into her heart again, not after how he walked away from her eighteen months ago. But the heart wants what it wants…
This is just a novella, but it has everything it needs. Everything goes rather quickly, but the author gives enough away about their past to see the full picture. And Mason, he is so sure he can win Aria back. The banter and denying true feelings, makes the crash between them much more explosive. I loved it.

Such a cute, sweet story that definitely makes you believe in true love and soulmates. After years of being apart, Mason and Aria find themselves back to each other as if time never stopped. What I love the most is Jennilynn Wyer didn't beat around the bush with these two, no games played or trying to make the other jealous. When you love someone for real, you absolutely grab it by the horns and never let go. I would love to see more of this couple and am also interested with Brandon’s storyline as well so I hope there is more to come with this series of stories.

This was a short novella where we finally get Mason’s happily ever after. Mason is a loved side character that we meet in Wander Lost and About That Night.

This story begins a year and a half after Mason walked away from Aria, the girl of his dreams. He walked away not thinking he was worthy of her. Now he is back in her life and is determined to win her back and prove he won’t ever let go again.

This was a very quick read and easily can be read in one sitting. Even though I wanted it to be longer because I loved Mason,it was the perfect length. What was also amazing was when Mason walked away, he knew he had to fix himself and come to terms with the demons of his past. He needed to make sure he fixed himself and deserved Aria. It isn’t angsty other than Aria trying to hold herself back from falling for Mason again. But she was still very much in love with him. He put in the work and is only looking forward.

It isn’t very steamy and the steam happens once Aria lets him back into her heart. You don’t have to read the other books Mason appears in, but it would be a bonus at getting to know him more in his friend’s stories.

Following Aria’s declaration of love, Mason apologized and took off, ending their relationship. Now, a year and a half later, he’s back and moved in next door to her, determined to win her back.

I haven’t yet read the other Fallen Brook books, but I wasn’t lost at all. This was such a sweet, short story about Mason and Aria. They are so adorable together. I would definitely read more about them and plan to go back and read the other Fallen Brook books as well. ❤️

Great novella with Mason and Aria.
Should she give Mason a second chance or close the door on the past and move on?
Wonderful storyline, great characters, and a lovely HEA.

Oh how I loved this novella! So much love throughout. Love for family that is blood related and for those we chose as part of our family. Mason and Aria were so happy together having met in college until three little words on New’s Year’s Eve had Mason running. Now he’s back and boy I couldn’t get enough! This can be read as a standalone, but I looking forward to reading the other books about Mason’s friends!

The novella was everything I hoped it would be!

💋small town
💋second chance
💋short and sweet
💋next door neighbor

Mason broke up with Aria after she told him she loved him almost 2 years ago and both their hearts have been broken ever since. Mason has been doing his own healing while Aria tried to mend her broken heart but nothing worked, until Mason moves in next door and declares he came back to town for Aria.

I love how we get a lot of info with such a short story. We know what happened, we know why, and we know they are meant to be. Doesn’t get better than that🖤

“One day, this incredible person will walk into your life and flip it upside down in the most amazing way possible. You’ll finally understand the meaning and the gravitas of the words ‘I love you;’ not because you say them, but because they are embedded into your soul and tattooed onto your heart. It’s then you realize you found your soulmate.”

Mason and Aria are soulmates, meant to be together forever. That’s what she thought until he shatters her heart by walking away when she says “I love you”.
It’s been nearly two years since that night, and Mason has returned home with a new job, new insight and big plans. Determined to fix the biggest mistake he ever made.
The chemistry and connection between them is electric and makes the world disappear. Their love never died, he just needed help to be able to accept that he deserved love and to believe it would last.

“This moment right here… this incredible thing between Aria and me… this boundless love between us that refused to die and only grew stronger even though distance and time separated us… is everything.” - Mason

This may be a novella but it is rich, heartfelt, has intellect as well as passion, devotion, sweetness and emotion followed up with a beautiful HEA.
This is my introduction to Jennilynn Wyer and I am so glad to have stumbled across such an amazing author. I now have a whole new catalogue of books to add to my TBR.

Thank you to the author and Wordsmith Publicity.

Love Everlasting: A Second Chance, a small-town romance novella (Fallen Brook Book 7) by Jennilynn Wyer, is a short standalone written to give the popular side character Mason of the Fallen Brook series his own HEA.

Meanwhile, Aria moved to Dearborne to care for her younger brother, who was still in high school. Mason moves into his new cottage, which is next door to Aria. Love Everlasting is full of angst, banner, spice, and romance. Mason wants a reconciliation, while Aria is more cautious since he obliterated her heart for a year without one word from him. Mason earnestly pursues Aria, hoping to win back his girl, but will Aria trust him with her heart again? Love Everlasting is a spicy small-town romance. Love Everlasting Is the first book by Jennilynn Wyer I have read, but it won’t be my last.

How can you not swoon over a man who purchases the house beside you to try and win your heart back. Love Everlasting is a sweet, enjoyable and beautifully written novella that you will fall in love with. Ms. Wyer always seems to give us a story that has us addicted to not just the storyline but the characters as well. Add in the fact that this is a second-chance romance and she has checked all the boxes of a must-read.
I cannot imagine seeing the man who walked away from you on New Year's Eve just after you told him that you loved him, as your new neighbour. Mason moves back to Dearborne to start a new job but more importantly to win the heart of the woman that he has loved all his life, Aria. He was determined and did everything that he could to prove to her that he was worth having her heart again. Aria was determined to keep her distance but he still had a hold of her heart and no matter what she tried to do to keep the wall around it, Mason had a sledgehammer to take it down. Reasons for walking away and truths come out, hearts are mended and they reclaim their HEA.

I adored this novella. I hadn’t read any of the other books in this particular series, but just reading this makes me want to go back and start from the beginning just to get more of the backstory.

Aria and Mason dated in college. New Year’s Eve, and Aria confesses her love for Mason to which he doesn’t reciprocate; leaving Aria devastated and heartbroken.

Over a year later - he’s back. And her next-door neighbor.

This is just the lighthearted, quick romance read everyone needs. Mason is perfect and they are perfect together. Aria had her struggles, obviously since the split.. but once he opened up about his struggles and the reasoning behind it, she was able to understand him better. He was determined, to say the least.

I absolutely love books by Jennilynn Wyer, and we can add this one to the list ❤️

Mason walked away from Aria for her own good, to shield her from the darkness he was drowning in, but he regrets every minute they’ve spent apart. Now, a year and a half later, he’s moving back home determined to undo his mistake.

This novella was a quick happily ever after with a lot of background on Mason’s character. But even in short format, it was clear the depth of the feelings Aria and Mason had for each other, and that neither of them had moved on in their time apart. I loved Aria’s and the situations these two got themselves into. Second chance is one of my favorite tropes any day, but this worked particularly well in a novella because of their existing chemistry. I would definitely read more in the Fallen Brook world!

You’ll Find —
Second Chance
Forced Proximity
Tragic Past
Small Town
Baseball Coach

Thankful for the opportunity to read early!

✨ ARC REVIEW ✨

This is my first book from Jennilynn Wyer and reading any book from this series. I really enjoyed reading this novella. It was a quick read was able to get through it without stopping!

Mason walks away from Aria after she confesses her love to him. He's too stunned and wants to protect her from him and his past. After missing her he returns back to his small town and will stop at NOTHING to get her back.

This is a good forced proximity, next door neighbors (he will do anything even become her neighbor lol), Alpha/possessive MC. with angst and a HEA! 💚

I loved Aria's sassy personality and the banter in this book!

Will definitely check out the other books in the series!

( Thank you for my ARC copy of this book, the above are my thoughts and feeling. Hope you enjoy. 🖤)
