About this ebook

When your forties are fading in the rear-view mirror, and your happily ever after wasn’t as long or as happy as you thought it would be. What then?

 

Do you still have any dreams left to chase? Do you even want to?

 

Chris’s happily ever after was more of a nightmare than a dream.

 

But that was a long time ago. These days, she lives a full life. She dates sometimes. Just because she’s in her fifties doesn’t mean she’s forgotten how to have fun. But a love of her own? That might just be a dream too far.

 

Seymour’s dreams came true when he married young and had a daughter.

 

He doesn’t believe in dreams anymore. Since his wife died, he’s hidden himself in his work. He’s made more money than one man could ever need. He’s rebuilt the bridges he burned with his daughter. He’d even go as far as to say he’s content.

 

But falling in love again? That’s not even a wish for him, let alone a dream.

 

Until he meets Chris …

 

Pick up your copy of this heart-warming romance today and you’ll laugh and cry as these two figure out whether old enough means wise enough to love again—or whether a happily ever after at their age is just a dream too far.

 

This book is intended for readers aged 18+

Yet again,within the first dozen or so pages I was immersed in this latest Summer Lake Silver book. SJ skillfully weaves old and new characters, creating a storyline that explores the reactions and feelings of an older generation. Seymour and Chris' story has been worth waiting for! Yaay for Summer Lake Silver!!

Awesome story from an older lady's perspective. At 60, A Dream Too Far is a very real thought. This author/word artist handled a sensitive subject with warmth (and heat), and humor. Very nicely done.

About the author

Hi, I'm SJ, a coffee addict, lover of chocolate and drinker of good red wines. I'm a lost soul and a hopeless romantic. Reading and writing are necessary parts of who I am. Though perhaps not as necessary as coffee! I can drink coffee without writing, but I can't write without coffee.

I grew up loving romance novels, my first boyfriends were book boyfriends, but life intervened, as it tends to do, and I wandered down the paths of non fiction for many years. My life changed completely a couple of years ago and I returned to Romance to find my escape.

I write 'Sweet n Steamy' stories because to me there is enough angst and darkness in real life. My favorite romances are happy escapes with a focus on fun, friendships and happily-ever-afters, just like the ones I write.

These days I live in beautiful Montana, the last best place. If I'm not reading or writing you'll find me just down the road in the park - Yellowstone. I have deer, eagles and the occasional bear for company, and I like it that way :0)
