Happily Ever After (Deep Haven #1) 
Mona's dream is about to come true. With the help of her best friend, Liza, she's transforming an old Victorian house in the lovely lakeside town of Deep Haven into the Footstep of Heaven Bookstore and Coffee Shop. If only she could swing a hammer.
Luckily for Mona, Joe Michaels—a handsome, mysterious handyman—agrees to help in exchange for rent in the apartment above her garage. But when disaster threatens her dream, Mona turns to her handyman for more than just household solutions and finds that some fairy tales have surprise endings. . . .
This is the first book of Susan May Warren's that I've read, but it most certainly will not be my last! From the moment I let myself be immersed in Reese Clark desperately trying to flee the book signing he didn't want to be at, to the moment when "Happily Ever After" is assured, I was hooked. I love romances where the couple are friends first and love grows from there!However, the real beauty of this story lies in its message of forgiveness and grace. The author was able to present the wondrous
This one took a while to get started for me. It moved pretty slow and not much excitement happened. About halfway it got much better and turned out to be a wonderful story. An oldie, but worth the read.

"Happily Ever After" by Susan May Warren falls prey to every stereotype in the book. It's a Christian romance and both aspects are so heavy handed the book becomes almost unbearable.Warren's writing is interesting and the end of the book is done very well. Unfortunately I would venture to say most readers won't get past the first few pages to get to the end. I enjoyed this book as it was fluff and an easy read. The lack of reality in the Christianity of the characters I found off-putting. It
I loved this book! It had it all--romance, intrigue, believable and lovable characters, and lessons on God's forgiveness. I want to read more of this series about the people of Deep Haven, Minnesota. It rates 5 stars from me!
This book was just what I needed. My kids have been sick all week and I need a nice story to lose myself in. It is a Christian novel and some of the main themes of the book revolve around forgiveness and turning your life to God. It was a clean, sweet, romance, if somewhat predictable.
4.5 stars This was my first Susan May Warren book but it won't be my last!

This is one of my favorite books from March so far. I really enjoyed getting to know these characters, and all of Mona's trials while trying to open her bookstore were pathetically hilarious. Liza was the perfect friend for her. And, of course, Joe and Rip...This has so much (even a villain and a strawberry farm!) between the covers that it was difficult to put down. I really guessed the "big reveal" before it was given, but the story was written in a way that I was constantly questioningThis is the first book of Susan May Warren's that I've read, but it most certainly will not be my last!
