Synopsis
She was the first rule I ever broke.
She’ll be the last.
In the beginning, there was Savannah Shaw.
Teasing me with a mischievous, merciless grin by day.
Crawling through my window with tear-stained cheeks by night.
I was ordered to avoid her.
Lectured on her misdeeds.
Forbidden from seeing her.
But my need to protect her was innate.
So natural I never questioned it.
So visceral I couldn’t fight it.
She was the first rule I ever broke, and it’s why I lost her the first time.
Now, out of nowhere, there is Sav Loveless.
World famous frontwoman for The Hometown Heartless,
Hollywood’s newest up-and-coming film star,
and my daughter’s idol.
Her reputation for trouble precedes her,
but the celebrity who sets foot in my small town is no longer a girl in need of protection.
She’s a woman who has saved herself,
and this time, it’s my life that’s falling apart.
Maintaining the distance between us is imperative,
but everything about her pulls at every part of me.
My need to touch her clouds my logic.
My need to have her, to own her, to love her.
She’ll be the last rule I ever break,
but this time, it will be to keep her.
****
Between Never and Forever is an angsty and spicy standalone contemporary romance.
It follows rockstar, single father, small town, and second chance tropes, and has a guaranteed HEA.

ღ 𝙱𝙴𝚃𝚆𝙴𝙴𝙽 𝙽𝙴𝚅𝙴𝚁 𝙰𝙽𝙳 𝙵𝙾𝚁𝙴𝚅𝙴𝚁 ღ Is a full length romance book by Brit Benson
Once I saw the cover, read the blurb, noticed the author I was all in, this was one I was highly anticipating, one I couldn't wait to get my grabby little hands on. Once it landed on my kindle, game over, life was put on hold.
And shamelessly this was inhaled.
Once I saw the cover, read the blurb, noticed the author I was all in, this was one I was highly anticipating, one I couldn't wait to get my grabby little hands on. Once it landed on my kindle, game over, life was put on hold.
And shamelessly this was inhaled.
Their friendship spanned from a young age to adulthood. She was the girl everyone turned their back on, she carried the sins of her mother on her young shoulders, outcasting her, bruises marring her body from a stepfather who was horrendous and a mother who had clocked out. No one was in Savannah's corner other than him..The boy who always had her back, the boy who cared for her, loved her without even understanding the word, who sheltered her when she needed him the most.
Until she ran away. Running away from a township that wanted to see the back of her.
Years go by until these two meet again. But that thing called timing was out of sync. They had a few more lessons to learn before they would meet again.
To say that I enjoyed the second part of this story was an understatement. This was where the story came into its own, full circle. The feels hit me like a freight train and never let go even after I'd inhaled that last page days later and this is still on my mind.
This author came out swinging with a full bucket of angst taking me prisoner along the way. Like their journey this was one hell of a rollercoaster. Twist and turns, rooting throughout that they make it back to each other, the emotions were raw, the characters were relatable, real, and had me even loving the half pint Boss wholeheartedly.
