A one-night stand born from vengeance in a foreign land.
An explosive chemistry neither of us could deny.
We signed a contract on the back of a Boar’s Head Pub napkin that said if we ever met again, we would drop everything and be together.
Eight years and thousands of miles later, he’s here.
In New York.
And he’s America’s music obsession.
The intangible Irish poet who brings record executives to their knees.
The blizzard in my perfect, unshaken snow globe.
Last time we spoke, he was a beggar with no intention of becoming a king.
But a king he became, and now I’m his servant.
I’m not the same broken princess Malachy Doherty put back together with his callused hands.
I have a career I love.
A boyfriend I adore.
An apartment, a roommate, a life.
I changed. He changed, too.
But Mal kept the napkin.
Question is, will I keep my word?
My Review
'IN THE UNLIKELY EVENT':
Is a full length romance novel by L.J. Shen. Spoken in various POV's. Meet our hero Malachy Doherty and our heroine Aurora Belle Jenkins aka Rory.
I went into this book completely blind, and I mean that literally, I never read the synopsis, didn't pay much notice to the cover, one look at the title and the author sealed the deal. I had to have this in my life!!
So jumping into 'In the unlikely event', the last thing I expected to read would be a POV from a cow!! Yes you read it here!! So expect the unexpected because L.J. Shen delivers something that's never been written before. This book went beyond unique!!
It all started with a one night stand, that had the potential to be so much more.. But they were both from different worlds with an ocean between them. So they decided to make a pact that would change their lives forever..
We signed a contract on the back of a Boar’s Head Pub napkin that said if we ever met again, we would drop everything and be together.
And from this point onwards the journey jumped until they met again, both had moved on, but both still connected to the other like a soul mate should be. Heart ache, deceit, hate all rolled into a big jumbled mess as we unravel the puzzle pieces that got them to where they were in present time.
There were so many things I loved about this book, especailly the Ireland setting, I felt like I was actually there, and so many quotes that I absolutely adored!!
