What a well written story . It will pull your heartstrings and have you laughing out loud one minute and throwing your kindle the next. I never wanted to reach inside my kindle and slap people as much as I did with some of the characters in this book. But I enjoyed it so much , I stayed up to 6a.m to complete this journey with Lautner & Sydney  !!

One word:  FABTABULOUS!!!!!  This is a love story, yes a love story you will not want to miss.  Ms. Marsh, you did it again!  Once I got the book downloaded to my iPhone, I could not put it down!
This is a story about two people that have one thing in common: growing up without a father. Chantal's mother never told Chantal's father she was pregnant.  She did not tell Chantal about him until she was eighteen years old. Chantal and her father now have a nice relationship.  He now lives in New York City.  They talk and Skype often.  Zane's mother told her sons that their father died.  Lie! He is very much alive.  When Zane was a still a baby, his father just took off and moved to America, where he remarried, and had two more kids.  Zane, and his brother Steele, have two half brothers, Wyatt, and Kurt, which you will also meet in this book, and just are just as interesting as Zane.  Yes, there are future books coming about all of the brothers (Yippeeeeee!).  Zane comes to America to meet and get to know his family.  He meets Chantal when a friend of hers asks her to show Zane around Las Vegas.  Their attraction to each other skyrockets as soon as they meet, and their feelings for each other develop quickly.  Chantal goes with Zane to California to meet his father.  However, he takes an instant dislike to Chantal.  I love Chantal break off her relationship with Zane because she realizes that she does not want to get between Zane and his father.  I am not going to describe the story any further.
Ms. Marsh does a phenomenal job writing this book.  The characters development is done so well that you really get to know them and care what happens to them.  I cannot wait to read about the rest of the brothers.  If they are even half as great as this one, Ms. Marsh will have four more hit!
Ms. Marsh thank you for the ARC, I REALLY enjoyed the book!
Thank you for reading my review.  Go buy this book, you will not be disappointed.

A Beautiful Sight  5*
Sandi Lynn  20/08/16
Your stories always make me smile and A Beautiful Sight is no exception.
Really enjoyed the characters, Aubrey and Ethan, Aunt Charlotte, Penelope, Ian, Charles and Lexi.
An interesting storyline, which flowed beautifully, a joy to read.
At first Ethan was the stereo typical rich, playboy who used women for sex, no strings that was until he met Aubrey.
She was a strong, independent young lady, who achieved so much in her 25 years.
The met at an art exhibition where they discuss a painting which turns out to have lots of meaning.
As they begin to get to know each other, with Ethan hell bent on sticking to his rules for women, he is totally blindsided by not only the attraction but also the emotions he feels for Aubrey.
Aubrey is not at all trying to be the one to tame him, she feels there is more about him, even if her friends and family warn her otherwise.
They are both hiding hurt pasts, which play a huge part in how they are as people. They both begin to let each other in more and more.  I loved Ethans housekeeper, driver and his family  they didn't take his crap!
So even though this is a boy meet girl story, who fall in love, its by no means a typical romance story, I loved how they both interacted, they loved and fought with each other!
Glad they get their HEA, so very well deserved and for her to finally accept Ethans help.
A lovely story, had me turning the pages!

I was hooked from the first page of Delana and Charles' love story.  This story teaches that love can jump up and bite you at any stage of this game we call life.  This book is filled with tender moments and real emotion jumping off the pages.  This story is well written and such an enjoyable read.

I highly recommend this love story to readers of all ages.  It will leave you feeling good and wanting to move some furniture with the one that you love ;-)

This is a love story - As the book opens we find our young couple at a restaurant. Dom had told Katie that he was going to Italy to bring back his grandmother. He had already asked her to marry him- but instead of saying yes- she said they should wait. She wasn't sure it would work- she wasn't sure if his grandmother could live in the same house with her.

Off Dom goes to Italy to bury his aunt- and to bring back grandmother. Where she belongs. Hoping that these 2 omen that he loves the most will learn to love each other.

Nonna tells Katie the story about how her and Ken get to know each other. And how they become a couple during world war 2. She explains about her dog Dante. And how he was always the protector- however he always liked Ken.

Can Nonna and Katie build a relationship together? Can Katie and Dom (Nico) get together? What happened with Dante ? Is he able to bring together another couple?

This is a must read for all!!! Dante's Gift is a magical romantic read. It takes you back into time. And then brings you forward at the same time. You are able to see everything so clearly. You know that there is someone out there for you if you haven't found that person yet.
Now having read Rolf's Quest- and gotten a bite of Ms. Wynne's writing style. I knew that she was a talented author. However- the emotions an descriptions that she brought forth in this story. I was not expecting. Having never been outside of the states-I could see and feel the area , the buildings, aroma right down to the low entry of the building that Nico walked into. Ms. Wynne had me ducking my head as he entered to greet his grandmother. I was even smelling the aroma of herbs that were described.
Ms. Wynne I look forward to reading more of your wonderful books like this- the emotions of the characters in the story are so amazing that I felt like I was right there in the story itself and taking part of it. This is a MUST READ FOR ALL!!!

A wonderful read.  The marriage in this story was a
business type arrangement (complicated) between two
strangers who had never met before.
The man (Ken) expected some old,blue haired 60 year
old woman would end up being his bride because the
dead husband was that age but,to his shock his new "wife"
was a gorgeous young woman and the sparks fly between them
at the first meeting !!!
This story drew me in with it's engaging characters and writing.
I wanted to see what would happen (most of which was sex and conflict).
These two had a definite love connection and overall,was a touching
romance. Has some quite descriptive love scenes!  Do read this one.

This beautiful love story kept me up all night. I was hooked from the very first scene to the last. The story opens with a rude awakening for Dino, an up and coming singing sensation. His greedy manager has forced Dino's ex-girlfriend to keep her pregnancy a secret and give their son up for adoption. When Dino finds out, it's too late. His son is gone. He flees to a quaint English village and meets Maria; a shy, gentle woman recovering from her own traumatic ordeal.

On the surface, Maria and Dino appear to be opposites. He's a famous, jetsetting singer, she's a reclusive homebody. But in their hearts, they both value and desire the same things. They must show great courage to overcome the many obstacles, both internal and external, that keep them oceans apart.

I loved the way Ms. Taylor brought each setting to life. I could smell Maria's home baked rolls, feel the warmth of the Italian sun and hear the music as Dino and Maria danced.

This is a beautiful story, a smooth read as well as being a very relaxing book.  Danielle's art of depicting romance shines through in this story of an much older man being married to a much younger woman.  As with real life, in this relationship Raphaella's husband was old and sick as well as dying.  She met a man and even though she developed feeling for him, remained loyal to her sick husband and stayed by his side, genuinely loved him.  Danielle masters her pen with the relationship between Raphaella and Alex and as usual ends brings her book to a great climax.  Great, Great story!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My Thoughts:

Before & After was such a beautiful, emotional, and touching love story.  It was my first read by Nazarea Andrews, and I was blown away with how much I loved these characters, was hooked to the story line, and did not want to put my kindle down.

I highly recommend this book for those that are romantic at heart, believe in true love, and enjoy reading an uplifting story about the power of love.  The story begins with Peyton and her best friend, Lindsay, celebrating at Lindsay's bachelorette party.  The two girls have been drinking, so the go to take a cab home.  However, this ride will change both of their lives forever, because these two young women get in to a catastrophic car accident.  The accident leaves Peyton with retrograde amnesia, and Lindsay paralyzed.

The story then alternates between before the accident occurred, and after it occurred.  We get Rike's perspective during the before part.  He is the man that loves Peyton with all of his being, but she doesn't remember him; and we get Peyton's perspective after the accident with a beautiful poem at the beginning of every new section written from Rike to Payton.

Throughout this story, we learn about Rike and his best friend Scott, who grew up in the foster care system together, are best friends (more like brothers), room mates, and talented musician's.  We also learn about Peyton, and Lindsay, who is with Scott.  These four are a family to one another, and it is heartbreaking to see how Peyton losing her memory affects both herself, and the one's she loves.

Before & After was poignant, deeply moving, so sexy, and memorable.  The character's had depth, were well rounded, and very likeable.  The plot hooked me immediately, and did not disappoint.  I don't know how, but the author managed to write a story that was amazing from beginning to end.  My only disappointment was not getting closure pertaining to Lindsay and Scott's relationship.  However, my hope is that this is due to Ms. Andrews writing a sequel where their plot lines are wrapped up as well.

My Rating:

I give, Before & After, by Nazarea Andrews, 4.5 The Family that we choose, "You are not my fish, you are my sea," True Love Conquers All, Filled Stars!!!  Read this story if you are in the mood for a breathtaking, heart melting, sensually seductive story!
