From New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Corinne Michaels comes a new story in her Salvation series…

I was poised to become partner at my law firm even before I became secretly engaged to my boss. After being humiliated by him on my wedding day, I can’t face working for him any longer. So I quit, waving my middle finger on my way out.

Now the only things I’m poised for are unemployment and loneliness.

When an opportunity with Cole Security arises, it seems like the perfect way to run, all the way to Virginia Beach. I wasn’t expecting my childhood sweetheart to be there. I definitely wasn’t prepared that when we saw each other again, Benjamin Pryce would be so grown-up. So gorgeous. So Navy SEAL-ish.

And still the same guy who broke my heart when I was fifteen–and could do it again.

They say if you’re fooled once, shame on them. The second time, it’s on you. The third time, it’s going to be me that runs… unless he can convince me to stay forevermore.

From New York Times Bestselling author Corinne Michaels, comes EVERMORE, a new novella in her ***Salvation Series*, brought to you by 1,001 Dark Nights! Be sure to grab your copy today!**

Liz's Review

I absolutely loved Evermore by Corinne Michaels. This is a standalone, but also highlights characters of Corinne’s Salvation series. This is a great introduction to Corinne’s writing for new readers and a great treat for her long-time readers. Evermore is a quick read that was sexy and steamy and emotional. I devoured it and loved it.

Gretchen thought she had it all. The job, the man and a future all planned out. Her life list dictating where should she be in life right now. Then suddenly she finds herself without her fiancé, her job and her home. She has lost her direction. Then her best friend’s husband offers her a job with Cole Security and she jumps at the chance for a fresh start. But the last person she expects to find there is her first love, Benjamin Pryce.

As a Navy Seal, Ben knows how to be strong and determined. His life is about control and precision, but since leaving the Seals, he has been a bit lost. But being a part of Cole Security helps. Then a woman from his past enters his life again. She is beautiful, sexy and caring, but she deserved so much more than the broken man he is.

I devoured Evermore by Corinne Michaels. Ben and Gretchen had such great chemistry and an undeniable connection. Gretchen was ready to let Ben in, but Ben was dealing with insecurities and vulnerabilities he had not been ready to share. I loved them both so much. This is a must-read for both new and long-lasting fans of this author!

Excerpt:

I was supposed to be on my honeymoon.

Instead, I cashed that shit in before he could and I got airline tickets and a hotel for down the line.

He left me at the altar, least I can get is a trip.

“I appreciate that, I really do, but I’m already freaking behind because of him.” I release a groan that almost sounds like a cry. “I’m never going to have kids now and I can forget my career goals!I need to find a new job. My life list requires that I don’t have a lot of time to lose.”

I’ve been a workaholic my entire life, I can’t imagine having an extended time off.

“Oh here we fucking go,” Ashton mutters while rolling her eyes.

“What?”

“The life list. Number one, be married and have the perfect life. Number two, stab Gretchen in the eye with her stupid list. Number three, burn the list and remind Gretchen that living isn’t a science.”

“Ash.” Catherine tries to mollify her. “You and I think the list is…extreme, but Gretchen likes it.”

“Yes. I do. I need lists to keep things in order. Besides, my mother always said a dream isn’t a plan until it’s written down.”

There’s nothing wrong with keeping things in order. I feel like having a life list has ensured that most of my plans, though not all, have worked out the way they should.

Sure, all the things that I believed I could check off on my list have now gone to shit, but at one point, they almost came true.

“Oh God!” I say with tears in my eyes.

“What?” Catherine rushes over. “Are you okay?”

I look at my best friend and shake my head. “He ruined everything! My entire life list is now gone! None of it is even possible. There’s no way I’ll even have kid number one by the time number two was due!”

I had a great job, that’s gone. I was getting married, that’s not happening. I was in my dream condo, which I can’t afford to keep now even if I did pull the sale. Everything all because of stupid Harold.

“Then it’s time for a new list.” Cat takes my hand. “Life is about adapting and now it’s time to do that.”

“I hate him.”

“As you should,” she agrees.

Ashton sighs. “Body parts in a box anyone?”

I let out a giggle and wipe the tears. I have the best friends. Catherine cancelled her trip back to California to see me through this. Ashton called out of work, and Jackson has…well, offered his services. I know it all feels so bleak right now, but with them on my side, I’ll be okay.

“My offer still stands to break his kneecaps,” Jackson attempts again.

“Now that I may change my mind about.”
