Ever After Always (Bergman Brothers, #3)

by Chloe Liese

For those who’ve lost hope, and those who’ve been to hell and back to find it again.

“You pierce my soul. I am half agony, half hope. Tell me not that I am too late, that such precious feelings are gone forever.” — Jane Austen, Persuasion

Because I’m a feeler, and music is a language of emotion.

“In the words of the inimitable Lisa Kleypas, ‘Marriage isn’t the end of the story, it’s the beginning. And it demands the effort of both partners to make a success of it.’”

“Romance is about the centrality of loving relationships, and it reminds us that human connection is vital to existence, rather than glorifying egoism or violence or greed. So excuse my genre for not being perfect, but let’s back the fuck up from hypocritically critiquing books that have done a lot more for humanity than slashers and circle-jerk, five-hundred-page, nihilistic tomes.”

Love’s true test, the measure of its strength, is its bravery to be honest, its willingness to face the hardest moments and say, Even though there’s nothing to be done, at least I have you.
