About this listen
From the New York Times bestselling author of Forever My Girl: The Motion Picture, Heidi McLaughlin delivers an emotional second chance romance about life, love, and what it means to truly be happy!
Elle James has it all: a loving fiance in Ben, a promising career as a music manager, and a supportive family. She couldn't be happier with her life. That is until the unthinkable happens and she must accept the consequences of her actions and figure out how to come clean to her family or continue living the lie.
Ben Miller had it all: a loving fiancee, a budding career, and the support of people who loved him like family. That was until he wanted more, and his fiancee was unable to meet him halfway. He makes a decision, one that affects everyone. When his life takes an unexpected turn and he's diagnosed with a life changing illness, he finds himself fighting for more than just love.
With their happily ever after slipping through their fingers, will Elle and Ben be able to survive, or will life's curveball be too much for them to handle?

Since becoming a major league baseball player, I've learned a few hard lessons. Like never give out your home address on social media (sorry, Mom). Never shoot your mouth off without thinking...and never, ever let your personal life interfere with your game. But then I saw her - sitting alone behind the enemy dugout, watching me - and I just had to meet this girl.

It was supposed to be the best day of my life. But the second I got up, things started to fall apart. The kitchen just caught on fire. Flowers were from a funeral. My bride-to-be just had an allergic reaction, leaving by ambulance. Oh, and my ex-girlfriend just walked into the church. They say you have to see the signs when they are right in front of you. Maybe she was just mine to have.

Story
Pine River was supposed to be a new start for me. And it was, especially attending school with my three overprotective cousins, who were the triplets at the top of the social hierarchy. Except they weren’t alone there, and the first day when I came to school, I saw him. Scout Raiden. Tall. Lean. Tattooed. Mesmerizing. He was a golden god with dark and piercing eyes—looking like he wanted to eat me up. The feeling was mutual, and that was a problem.

Football star. Single dad. And once, a long time ago, mine. I’ve spent the better part of a decade forgetting Ford Ellis. If he had just stayed away from Montana, I might have erased the memory of his striking blue eyes and rugged smile forever. Avoiding him was easy when the only place I saw his face was on ESPN—and a remote control could fix that problem.

Fantastic addition and a wonderful listen
I, like so many others, asked the author for more Ben and Elle. To be honest my actions might be considered begging. Heidi McLaughlin not only answered my plea, but she gave me everything. She poured her heart and soul into this book. You might ask how I know this. My answer is that you only need to read Give Me Forever and you will know, too.
I read the story. Then I read it again. I closed the book in a state of euphoria. I closed the book, grateful that so many years ago I had discovered such a talented writer. She put me through so many emotions and in the end all I felt was a state of calm. I struggled along side so many of the wonderful characters of the Beaumont Series. Their love and support for Ben and Elle picked me up when I was crashing. Ben and Elle weathered the storm and now walk in the sunlight.
Give Me Forever began as an Ugly Cry, a really heart wrenching Ugly Cry. I bawled more than I will ever admit. The characters were constantly challenged. For this reader the tears were worth it. The tissues overflowed the trash can. Every tissue is a thank you to the author for giving her all.
The ending of Give Me Forever has me overflowing with hope, a hope of forever. The author makes the reader work for the HEA. There were times I didn't think they would make it. Thankfully the author gave me the hope to keep going. She gave the characters the hope to keep going.
Give Me Forever is an inspirational story. It reminded it me that love can make you stronger. If you are lucky enough to have the shoulder of a friend to lean on then you have everything. For some, family is everything, and they will hold you up when you can't do it for yourself. For me the most important thing was that blood doesn't make you family, love does. Give Me Forever is full of love.
I may have closed the book but the love remains.
01/22/23 I don't care how many times I read Give Me Forever it still brings out all the emotions and still despise Brenda.
