L.J. Evans | Author Reader Match

facebooktwittergoodreadsblog

Instead of trying to find your perfect match in a dating app, we bring you the "Reader Match" where we introduce you to authors as a reader you may fall in love with. It's our great pleasure to presentΒ L.J. Evans! WRITES:

I write…well, lots of genres, but they all have some kind of
romance wrapped into them. My current standalone series, MY LIFE AS AN ALBUM,
is
contemporary romance. It started with a coming-of-age romance and is ending
with a new
adult slow burn. I’ve been accused of making people cry with my words, and I’m
only half
sorry for it. Β Each book in this series was inspired by music and each chapter
is really a song
title where the words of the song speak to what the characters are going
through. If you like
music and romance, then you’ll, hopefully, love how they collide in these
books.

ABOUT AUTHOR:

Sappy, romantic writer seeks fans of beautiful lyrics and
touching words to read a series that is full of raw emotions and happy
endings. After being a
victim of β€œlove at first sight” herself and being joyfully married for twenty-
five years, the writer
feels qualified to share a few happily ever afters with the rest of the world.

WHAT I'M LOOKING FOR IN MY IDEAL READER MATCH:
  • Knows that stories, like sweet tea, take time to reach perfection.
  • Appreciates broken and damaged people who find love and healing through self-discovery.
  • Appreciates that romance is not always a sexy love scene, but that a sexy love scene can be full of romance.
  • Appreciates the anticipation of a slow burn and just how fulfilling the end result can be.
  • Isn’t afraid to have their soul captured by the characters in a book even if those characters will never let them go.
WHAT TO EXPECT IF COMPATIBLE:
  • Beautiful words that stick with you.
  • Laughter through tears.
  • New meaning to familiar lyrics that you thought you already knew.
  • Happily ever afters that will make your heart burst into joyful song.

MY LIFE AS A MIXTAPE by L.J. Evans

My Life as an Album Book 4
My Life 
as a 
Mixtape
"One mistake doesn't make you a failure."

LONNIE
I came to Tennessee to help a friend.
And now, I’m stuck.
By the Southern charm,
By the sweet tea and
By a tall, red-headed "Strawberry Shortcake"

And when my world crumbles apart,
Wynn is there to help me pick up the pieces.
To show me the way.

WYNN
My life was a huge disappointment.
My marriage,
My job,
Everything slipped away.

Coming home seemed like the final failure.
But then I meet him,
Lonnie Brennan, the sexy bass player,
Who adds laughter to my life.

And now, I realize that I can
Change my tune,
Sing a new song.

From award-winning author, LJ Evans, comes the music inspired conclusion to the MY LIFE AS AN ALBUM SERIES about hope and new beginnings.

Re: L.J. Evans | Author Reader Match

I love these reader matches. This author looks like a match
for me. I don't always read romances but when I do this is
what I'm looking for.
(Mary Songer 2:36am November 23, 2018)

very nice
(Master Qq 12:50pm November 23, 2018)

Successfully matched! Can't tell you the number of songs
that make me cry- right now "Shallow"-, both sad and happy
tears.
Ans most assuredly, all sex is not romance and vice versa!
(Kathleen Bylsma 12:51pm November 23, 2018)

So happy to find some new matches in Mary, Master Qq, and
Kathleen! I hope you enjoy this series as much as I enjoyed
writing it!
