“So happy to read the first in a new series by Barbara Freethy. She knocks this one out of the park with lovable characters and easy to read story lines. So happy books 2& 3 get released soon. This is bound to be another great series.” Kim – All Night Books on KISS ME FOREVER
“This book is my favorite of the series so far. I like how the author doesn’t make any of her females lead just give in to the male characters they have to earn it. This one made me tear up a little because seeing Julie going through that envelope is hard but it helps her make a decision she wouldn’t have otherwise. It’s a very good book that just makes you ready to read more. Can’t wait for book #4.” – All Night Books on ALL YOUR LOVING

I absolutely loved Forever Starts Tonight; it is an incredible love at first sight love story. It is the sixth book in the Bachelors and Bridesmaids series. Each book in the series keeps getting better and better. I love that they series is based on the lives of eight women who met in their college freshman dorm, became best friends, and promised to be bridesmaids in one another’s weddings. Barbara Freethy has once again shown that she is an amazing storyteller. Forever Starts Tonight did not disappoint, I could not put it down and I loved every page. I really enjoy how the book is told from the perspective of the main characters. I love getting the insight and feelings from the different characters. Forever Starts Tonight is a love at first sight love story and is filled with heartbreaking and heartwarming moments. I love the lighter moments where I find myself smiling and laughing out loud and the bittersweet moments that cause me to sigh, say aww to myself with tears filling my eyes. Forever Starts Tonight is filled with such moments, and with so much emotion. It is filled with all those things that we have come to love and expect in a love story, especially the poignant and bittersweet moments that filled this page turner. Forever Starts Tonight is the story of firefighter Reed McAllister and Jessica Blake, first-grade teacher and single mother to Brandon. Jessica and Brandon recently moved to Half Moon Bay from San Diego to be closer to her mother, who is undergoing treatment for cancer and her friends. Reed and Jessica meet when Brandon calls 911 because Jessica got stuck in Wiley’s doghouse when he stole her wallet and she went to retrieve it. Reed is immediately taken by Jessica. Jessica is not interested in dating, her one and only priority is Brandon. She is volunteered for an emergency response training and Reed is the instructor. As Jessica and Reed spend more time together, things change between. Jessica and Reed share secrets and bittersweet stories with one another. I love that they were both so vulnerable and that they changed because of their love. I loved that Forever Starts Tonight is a more than just a romance, there are dilemmas that both Jessica and Reed are facing that need to be resolved. I love that there were multiple storylines: Jessica’s commitment to being a single mother, Reed’s desire to move from Half Moon Bay, but most importantly Jessica and Reed’s story. My heart broke at Jessica’s remark to Reed, when his future plans are revealed. I loved the plot twists in Forever Starts Tonight. I love all the little things that Reed does for Jessica. I love how all the storylines get so beautifully resolved. I love all the descriptions of the California area settings that Barbara Freethy detailed. Forever Starts Tonight is filled with the poignant and bittersweet moments in the story as well as the plot twists, that I have come to love and expect in Barbara Freethy’s stories. I love the cast of characters in Forever Starts Tonight and I am looking forward to reading the other books in the series. Who doesn’t love family and friends that always have each other’s backs? Reading Forever Starts Tonight felt like a family reunion, because the reader was able to catch up with the other characters in the series. I thoroughly enjoyed Forever Starts Tonight, who doesn’t love a love at first sight love story. Highly recommend this wonderfully written story.
