Louise Bay ~ Hopeful ~ Tour/Review/Giveaway





 Expected publication: July 15th 2014

***Not suitable for younger readers due to sexual content and language.***


Hopeful is a stand alone novel.

Guys like Joel Wentworth weren't supposed to fall in love with girls like me. He could have had his pick of the girls on campus, but somehow the laws of nature were defied and we fell crazy in love. 

For a short time, I thought it would be for infinity.

On July 10, 2006, immediately after graduation, Joel left for New York. And, despite him wanting me to go with him, I'd refused, unwilling to disappoint my parents and risk the judgment of my friends. I hadn’t seen him again. Never even spoke to him.

I've spent the last eight years working hard to put my career front and center in my life, dodging any personal complications. I have a strict no-dating policy. I've managed to piece together a reality that works for me. 

Until now.

Now, Joel's coming back to London.

And I need to get over him before he gets over here.





Review

5 Stars
 From the beginning you are introduced to the main characters and find out about how there friendship has grown. You also learn of Joel and Ava's friendship. 

The author has done a great job writing this story in the present and past with such a. Great flow. I really enjoyed seeing Ava grow more confident and choosing something for her and not worrying about what everyone else thinks and trying to approve. But will lt be enough for Joel to give her another shot? 

I finished this book in only a couple hours because I couldn't put it down. This was my first book written by Louise Bay and I will definitely be reading more.

 The chemistry and intensity going on in this book felt so strong and you could really feel it and it was definitely Hot!!!

I write sexy, romantic, contemporary novels - the kind I like to read!

Ruined by romantic mini-series of the seventies and eighties, I love all things romantic. There's not enough of it in real life so I'll settle for books and films.

I love the rain, the West Wing, London, days when you don't have to wear make-up, being alone, being with friends, elephants and champagne. 

Giveaway!!!
