There is nothing sexier than a good dad. And while Alex hasn't known he was a father for very long he takes it to heart. That's how he meets Maya, trying to connect with his daughter. Forever Mine is full of emotions and characters trying to do their best in a complicated situation. How ever misguided Alex may be in trying to compartmentalizing his life things always get messy when it comes to matters of the heart. Yes, there are sexy tidbits to this story but there is also an underlying struggle of a father's love for his daughter versus his budding love for Maya. Add in the dilemma of his daughter's mother and a serious health issue and you've got the makings of a heartfelt story. |
I have no idea how to express how much I love this book! I might even love it more than the first book in the series. Maya and Alex had such chemistry from the very first meeting of the eyes. You couldn't help but root for them to get together. Maya wants to do whatever she can to help Alex become closer to his daughter, including taking lessons from her, lessons that become very personal and sexy. While Sapphire Falls might still be my favorite series by this author, this second book in this series is ranking right up there. I voluntarily reviewed an advanced copy of this book provided by NetGalley. |
There's not doubt about it, Alex and Maya will forever steal your heart. Maya forces you to fall in love with her, while Alex refuses to see what's right in front of his face. Erin Nicholas knows exactly how to write a story that sweeps you away. Get your tissue ready because you're gonna need it. |
Ever sit down, get drawn in to a book, and 4 hours later realize that you've finished the book, have had emotions varying between wanting to throw your kindle across the room and ugly crying, only to realize the world has stopped, while your emotions are completely spent?? That is what book does!! (In the very best ways possible) Maya is seriously my hero. She's strong, and she doesn't let anything stop her from having fun. She's pretty much Alex's complete opposite, which makes them mesh together so well. He sort of grounds her, while she opens his eyes to what he's missing out on. Add in a Maya mini-me, friends that stand by you and are willing to push back when you've pushed too far, and an awesome mama who you could picture as a best friend, and you've got the perfect read. Erin Nicholas brings to light a disease you rarely hear about, and shows us how one who has it deals with it. This is definitely a must read!! |
Just WOW! I feel a little bit speechless over this book. I love Erin Nicholas' stories. All of them. They all get to me on a different level. I have to say though, this is one of my top favorites of hers. She has totally blown me away. I always talk about how much I love the hero. Alex is no different. I love him in a big way. He is incredible. Sexy, swoony, sweet, great dad, friend, DOCTOR! But, can I just say, that I have the biggest girl crush on Maya!!!!??? Everything about her blew me away. She was amazing. Simply amazing. I loved her in the first book of this series and I couldn't wait to get her story. What I wasn't prepared for was that I would totally fall in love with her. She was just so cool!!! I want to be her. Strong, independent, balls to the wall, no isn't an option, the list goes on. She has the personality I wish I had! Maya was perfect for Alex. She was exactly what he needed to push him outside of his perfect little boxes. What an awesome match up. And can we talk about the secondary characters? I always want more from Erin's stories, but I REALLY want the stories of these friends. I loved Rachel. You'll meet her and you'll see why! ;) And I need more of Ben. But Sophie! I can't wait to get to know her better. Not only was the love story between Alex and Maya perfect, but so was the relationship with Alex and Charli, Alex and Rachel, Maya and Ben, Maya and the girls, Maya and Charli! You're going to get so many emotions out of this book. So many feels!!! Happy reading!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
Forever Mine is the second book in the Opposites Attract series by Erin Nicholas. Maya Goodwin is a woman who holds nothing back in anything she does whether it's helping children gain more self-esteem, or loving someone with her heart and sole. Alex Nolan is a renowned doctor who specializes in research for Hemophilia. He is a man who is always on the outside looking in, never putting himself out there. Until the day he finds out he is the father of a nine year old girl who has the same affliction as he does - Hemophilia. His daughter Charli is a child who is into the Galactic Renegades and Alex wants to learn everything he can about the show in order to make a positive connection with his daughter. Alex attends a demonstration at Active Imagination Martial Arts and Fitness Studio where he watches several adults demonstrating various martial arts, stage fighting and weaponry techniques dressed as Superheros. One particular Superhero got his attention immediately, a woman in purple leather who just happened to be the owner of Active Imagination. He was so taken by her, he could not take his eyes off of her. Alex enlists Maya's help in learning everything he can about the Galactic Renegades in order to impress his daughter, but while doing that Maya challenged him at every turn. The chemistry between them was amazing and it soon became apparent that Alex and Maya could not keep their hands off each other. Can Maya get Alex to finally open up and take a chance, or is he so used to being on the outside looking in that he misses a chance of a lifetime. This was a great story dealing with a man who doesn't know how to go for it and a woman who does not know how to put the brakes on her actions or her emotions. I truly loved this story. Erin tells a story about hemophilia, but it is a story about so much more than that. I highly recommend this book and this series. |
I'm having a hard time finding the right words I want to write this. If you know me at all, you know I love Erin Nicholas' writing. Yes, I have a favorite here or there, usually as soon as I finish reading the last word of whatever book I've just finished. Forever Mine however touched me deeply in a different way that seems to need more than "I loved it!" Alex is such a highly educated Doctor, Maya is an ex-cop, geek weapon maker and seems to be what Alex wants to learn about for the daughter he recently learned he had. I guess the fact that the characters suffer some health issues may make it more dear to me, but I honestly think it is probably Ms. Nicholas' best book to date, and that's not an easy remark to make! This is definitely a five star read you won't want to miss! |

Forever Mine is a great addition to the Opposite Attract series. Erin Nicholas never fails to amaze me with her books, she is my top go to author. Maya Goodwin gives 100% in all she does, she's a risk taker and lives her life to the fullest. Alex Nolan likes to play it safe. He finds out he had a 9 year old daughter and enlists Maya's help to build his relationship with her. What wasn't planned was Alex's feelings for Maya, from the first time they saw each other they knew there was chemistry between them. I loved the way Maya gave 100% of herself in everything she did and the way she would pull Alex out of his safe place, the way she made him think about things in a different way. I absolutely LOVED Forever Mine and cannot wait to see was Erin Nicholas has for us next. |
