Summary

Ana DaSilva is looking for a palate cleanser. A one night stand. A reboot.

Instead, she got fireworks, sparks, chemistry, and the perfect guy. No one wants to meet Mr. Right when he should just be Mr. Rebound, but Mr. Right is so, so right.

But then he went from Mr. Right to Mr. Never, because when she learns she’s pregnant three days after that wonderful night with Dennis, she realizes her sleazy drug dealing ex not only left her with the legal mess she knew about, he gave her a life-long present.

One that means ignoring Dennis’ texts and phone calls, no matter how much she wants to answer.


Dennis Luview wants to escape his pain. Coming back to his hometown of Luview, Maine - the cheesy tourist trap where every day was Valentine’s Day - means facing a past he left behind twenty-four years ago.

Yes, his family is loving, and sure, he has roots that go bone-deep in the small town community where people step up for each other.

But the naive eighteen-year-old who left to serve his country is now a retired Special Ops vet with a heavy entourage of ghosts and PTSD. No woman deserves all the baggage he’s lugging around.

Including Ana, who clearly wants nothing to do with him, no matter how intense their one haunting encounter really was.
It's one thing to have ghosts, and quite another to be ghosted.

Which is why six months after that hot night, he’s stunned to find her in his hometown, at a bridal shower, her ripe, pregnant belly swelling under a gorgeous yellow sundress.

A public confrontation turns into a very private reunion, and as Dennis pursues Ana she opens up, but is he crazy to want her — and what turns out to be another man’s baby — to settle down and find stability and love?

Or is he deluding himself that he’s remotely worth the happiness an instant family could offer, after his terrible past?

**5 Happy Stars**

'Love You Now' is book 4 in the 'Love You, Maine' series by Julia Kent.

Ava and Dennis have an instant connection and an amazing night together before going their separate ways. Fate - unfortunately - has a twist in its tail for these two, who both hoped for more with each other after that one night.

Unlike the previous audiobooks in the series, this is a much more heart-felt and moving story. There is real poignancy and sadness, but also joy for this couple. While there are some funny moments in this audiobook, it does have a different tone (to the otherwise very funny series), and I loved it for this. This is a story of soul-mates finding each other and of a bitter-sweet romance. Life isn't always perfect, but Ava and Dennis find a way to get to their own perfection.

This story is a really lovely, heartfelt book, set in the brilliant town of Luview, with all the wonderful secondary characters we have loved and met throughout the series. This is, however, a standalone story, so you do not need to have listened to the previous books in the series to enjoy this one.

The narrators did an amazing job delivering this story.
