An Ever After Summer
Book curator Bellamy Larson is sent to France after another employee returns in tears from dealing with difficult client Jean-Luc Thibodeaux. Jean-Luc wants isolation, but Bellamy sees grief beneath his beastly reputation and persists in offering practical help and friendship. A professional assignment grows into a summer connection that asks whether healing and affection can last beyond the temporary circumstances that created them. Warm and fairy-tale-inspired, this Christian novella suits readers who enjoy Beauty and the Beast echoes, French settings, bookish heroines, grieving heroes, and romances that replace quick enchantment with patient companionship.
