There’s Only Been You
is a heartwarming story of family and a second chance at love. This is the first of what we hope is many novels from this talented new author. Reading Donna Marie Rogers is like coming home
.”

~ Tori Carrington, Bestselling, award-winning author of
SOFIE METROPOLIS

“Love lost and found is the basis of this wonderfully heartwarming read. Throw in a years-old lie and a strong sense of family and it only gets better and better. A subplot concerning a dirty cop adds a nice mystery to spice up the story.”

~ 4 Stars, Romantic Times BOOK Reviews

“I have to say Ms. Rogers outdid herself yet again. From the first page, I was pulled into the story and I remained hooked right until the last sentence...This author has a way of telling a story and pulling you in as if you’re a character in the book seeing everything firsthand. I highly recommend this book and promise you won’t be disappointed!”

~ Reviewer Top Pick, Diana Coyle - Night Owl Romance

“...Readers of contemporary romance will be thoroughly delighted in reading
There’s Only Been You

She’s running from her past, he’s unsure about his future. Maybe together they can figure out what was MEANT TO BE...

 

Officer Garrett Jamison
is at the lowest point in his life. He’s lost faith in his ability as a police officer after unwittingly setting his sister up with a dirty cop. Garrett ended up getting shot, and his sister’s son kidnapped right out of his own bed. He takes a leave from the force, in need of some time to make a decision about his future. Too bad he can't get a decent night’s sleep thanks to his sexy new neighbor and her howling cat.

 

Jessica McGovern
moves halfway across the country to start a new life in Green Bay, Wisconsin after her ex-husband is convicted of involuntary manslaughter in the death of their young son. Her new neighbor is as infuriating as he is handsome, but when her ex is released from prison early and shows up in town, Jessica discovers she's never needed anyone more.

 

 

“Witty and heartfelt, with an unforgettable cast of secondary characters,
MEANT TO BE
is a definite page-turner!

~ Lori Foster, NY Times bestselling author of
BACK IN BLACK

“Rogers has the ability to keep her readers on the edge of our seats. This one is definitely another page turner. I highly recommend this book, as well as the first in the series, to anyone who likes action and romance with unique endings...The series will make my keeper list.”

~ 5 Hearts, Brenda Talley - The Romance Studio

“Do you love characters that are stubborn, honorable, sassy, and just plain lovable? Well, look no further. Jessica and Garrett will keep you on your toes and turning those pages. I highly recommend picking up this story for anyone who is a lover of romance.”

~ Reviewed by Antonia, You Gotta Read Reviews

“There is so much I want to say, and if I could, I would harp praise upon praise...tightly written, well plotted and fast-paced, and the characters are unforgettable. This is the kind of book you crawl into bed with on a rainy night, with plenty of twists and turns along the way to keep you guessing and so much steamy chemistry between the protagonists you’ll sport a silly grin on your face.”

~ 5 Books, Fern - Long And Short Romance Reviews

 

 

About the author:

 

It’s been more than 20 years since I read and fell in love with my very first romance novel. I’d been vacationing in Michigan’s beautiful Upper Peninsula with my sweetheart (now my husband) and his family when I followed his mother into a used bookstore. I came across a couple of Kathleen E. Woodiwiss novels and decided to pick them up for my mom, who had always been a huge fan. The ride home was long, and I ended up reaching into the little paper bag to pull out the well-read copy of The Wolf and the Dove. By the time we arrived home, I was completely—and I mean completely—hooked. A romance reader had been born!

 

These days I live in a renovated old schoolhouse in beautiful Northeast Wisconsin with my husband and children. I’m an avid gardener and home-canner, as well as an admitted reality TV junkie. My passion to read is only exceeded by my passion to write, so when I’m not doing the wife and mother thing, you can usually find me sitting at my computer creating exciting new characters, fresh new worlds, and always happily-ever-afters.
