Happily Ever After Ink

Thoughts on this book: ‘Tis the fall season, which means I’m diving into all the fall reads! When I saw this book featured in Lyra’s newsletter—a billionaire romance with small-town vibes—I was instantly sold. If you’ve read any of my previous reviews, you know I’m obsessed with the billionaire trope, so it’s no surprise this made my must-read list. Add in the small-town charm (because seriously, they always have the best fall events), and I was sprinting to Amazon for the pre-order, counting down the days until it hit my Kindle! And in true Lyra fashion, this book did not disappoint! Autumn, our heroine, is an aspiring writer in a rut. She’s working at a coffee shop and recovering from a disastrous breakup that has completely killed her muse. Autumn doesn’t think she’ll ever write again. Oh, and let’s not even get started on Mr. Dreamy—the perfect guy she’s convinced only exists in her imagination. But guess what? One morning, in walks Mr. Dreamy in the flesh, and the sparks immediately start flying! Alexander, a.k.a. Mr. Dreamy, feels the magic too but fights against it. He’s not here for love—he’s here to lay low, which is why he doesn’t correct Autumn’s assumption about his name. He doesn’t want to be recognized as Zane Alexander, heir to his family’s fortune and owner of the local resort in town. Despite their rocky start, their relationship progresses quickly with fake dates that feel very real, exploring a spooky mansion, and attending fall events that make you wish you could live in this charming little town! As they work through their pasts and heal from previous relationships, their love story becomes sweet and endearing. Towards the end, the romance does get a little too sweet, but it fits their characters so well that I didn’t mind. This book is packed with cozy fall vibes and heartwarming romance, which is why it’s now in my rotation of favorite fall reads. If you’re looking for the perfect fall romance, add this one to your TBR list today! Recommended Reading if you’re looking for:
