MY Forever Love by D.E. Haggerty Book Review

My Forever Love is a heart warming and entertaining start to Haggerty’s Winter Falls series, blending humour, romance, and a wonderfully crafted community

Synopsis: Forever Love

Can My First Love Become My Forever?

When life in the city literally goes up in flames—taking her business and apartment with it—finding herself back in his quirky hometown of Winter Falls, hoping it’s just a temporary stop.

She just needs to prove to the insurance company that she’s no firebug (one accidental high school fire does not make an arsonist!) and get the check before heading out again.

But Winter Falls has other plans.

The locals, with their hippie vibe and nosy nature, have one goal: to make sure he rekindles his romance with Lyric Alston, her first love and the town’s charming Chief of Police. The problem? Lyric broke her heart once, and he’s not about to go down that road again—until Lyric denies knowing why their relationship ended. It be she got things wrong all those years ago?

With a sassy attitude and zero patience for Winter Falls’ matchmaking antics, he pushes back against Lyric’s relentless attempts to win him over. But Lyric’s determination and the undeniable spark between them make him question whether leaving town is really what he wants.

Full of laughter, meddling townsfolk, and the cutest rescue dog, this second-chance romance is a heart warming (and slightly exasperating) tale of rediscovering old love, mending broken trust, and realizing that sometimes, your heart knows best—even when you’re too stubborn to admit it.

Review: Forever Love

Plot

My Forever Love introduces readers to the charmingly eccentric town of Winter Falls. A place where eco-conscious ideals and hippie spirit have created a close-knit community full of quirky characters.

In this first book of the Winter Falls series, we are treated to a sweet and entertaining second-chance romance between:-

Aspen—a determined woman whose dreams of running a bookshop are put on hold after a fire destroys her business.
Lyric Alston, the small-town Chief of Police who broke her heart years ago.

Romance

Returning to Winter Falls isn’t part of Aspen’s long-term plan, but as she awaits her insurance pay out, she finds herself wrapped up in the town’s infectious charm.

Even more unsettling is Lyric’s presence and his clear determination to make amends for past misunderstandings.

With chemistry building steadily, Haggerty does a skilful job of keeping tension high without drawing it out to the point of frustration.

The storyline flows well, bringing readers along for the journey as Aspen and Lyric confront their mutual history and explore the potential for a renewed connection.

Setting

Aside from the main romance, the book truly shines with its vibrant supporting cast.

The townspeople are more than just background characters. As they actively shape the narrative, often meddling (hilariously) to push Aspen and Lyric together.

This interference adds humour and warmth, giving the story a dynamic, almost cinematic quality that keeps it fresh and engaging.

Fans of small-town romance will recognize familiar elements—heart warming romance, lively townsfolk, and the inevitable three-act breakup and reconciliation.

However, Haggerty elevates these elements with sharp, witty writing and a richly developed setting.

My Forever Love is above average in its genre, making it a delightful read that will leave readers eager to return to Winter Falls for more romantic tales.

Conclusion

Overall, My Forever Love is a heart-warming and entertaining start to Haggerty’s Winter Falls series, blending humours, romance, and a wonderfully crafted community.

Aspen and Lyric’s journey feels authentic, their rekindled relationship brimming with the emotional complexity of a true second chance Love story.

The endearing townsfolk add layers of charm, turning Winter Falls into a place readers won’t want to leave. This feel-good romance is a perfect escape, and Haggerty’s skilful storytelling leaves us excited to see what else Winter Falls has in store.
