Q&A With author Isabella White
Q Can you tell us a bit more about the 4Ever series?
A. The 4Ever series follows Holly Scallanger, 24, who just found out her fiancé cheated on her. She leaves him a week before their wedding and swears off men. But just like Murphy’s Law, Jake Peters enters her life. He is perfect in every way, over-the-top gorgeous, clever, and in his final year of medical school. She falls madly in love and then her life completely shifts around when she falls pregnant with Jake’s child. They split up because he isn’t ready for the baby. It’s not a very happy ending in this one, but the series has a happy ending. The second novel takes place 4 years later. Holly herself enrolled in Medical school. She just finished and now she has to start her internship at a hospital close to where Jake is a neurosurgeon. She finally bumps into him and it ends with the truth being revealed. The last one… well, it will come out soon. But we finally do get the happy ending we wanted in the first novel.
Q. I recently saw via your website that you are working on the What If series? What are those novels about?
A. The What If series is just that. In the 4Ever series readers will realize just how small Jake and Holly’s world is. That they both know people who are very important in Holly’s life and that it was basically a miracle that their paths didn’t cross earlier. So the What if series are alternative versions of book one and two. Two of the novels are an alternative ending for Imperfect Love, the first novel, and most of the others are alternative to Secret Love or alternative ways that takes place in Secret Love for the truth to come out faster. There will be seven stories in this series.
Q. What is the order to read the series?
Imperfect Love
Secret Love
Endless Love
For ME – Jake’s version of Imperfect Love.
The What if Series can be read in any order, but would be better to understand if you finished reading Imperfect Love and Secret Love. They are not standalones at all, but an added bonus.

The ending of this book is horrible. I hate books that end like this so you have to buy the next book. Holly is nothing but stupid and selfish and seriously damages her babies. Her pride refuse to have her doctor go to Gus Peters for the formula that was working for her hypertension. Seriously, what kind of mother endangers her child like that and beside her father could have sued Gus Peters to get his formula from him. Holly deserves everything that happens to her. And what kind of woman doesn’t confront a man face to face with what her mother had done. Seriously Holly is all kind of messed up and deserved everything that happened to her.
I will not be reading the book next in the series. I just want to slap Holly silly.
Why? Why would you do this to me Isabella White? I freaking hate cliffhangers!!!!!!!!! It’s like hell waiting for the next book to come out just to find out what is going to happen next, and I don’t do good with waiting. OCD not big on patients, just sayin. OMG this book had me all over the place. It starts kinda slow, you get a nice relationship build up between Jake and Holly. Then crap started hitting the fan. This won’t be one of my longer reviews, because if I say to much I will give away a huge part of the plot. I will say this I loved Jake. I thought he was great, sweet, funny, very romantic, and a all around good guy. I like Holly too, but she was a little immature at times, and pretty naive. Holly was also sweet and funny. They have a very sweet and loving relationship, the author did a great job of drawing me in and getting me invested in their love story. Loved all of Jake’s family except for his mom. Jake’s mom I HATED!!!!!! God I hate that evil, crazy woman.
The thing I had the hardest time with was the fact that Holly believed the crap that Jake’s mom told her, because even though the book doesn’t say it, I know she is lying. No way did Jake do a full 360 like that. And Holly just runs doesn’t tell anyone where she is going, or why. Doesn’t ask if it’s true, doesn’t tell her best friend, doesn’t even give herself a day to sleep on it? Nothing! She even gets rid of her cell phone for God sake. It just didn’t make since to me. I mean I get it, it has to be that way to make the story but in real life it makes no sense.
