Riley Lockhart shares a loft apartment with his sister Rarity,
and her best friend, Emma. And with him working unusual hours,
this arrangement has worked out perfectly, like ships passing
in the night. But when Emma gets engaged and becomes
bridezilla, Riley thinks things can't get much worse. Oh boy is
he wrong! When Emma gets dumped by her no good fiance, and
Rarity has to leave for a week for work, Riley finds himself
thrown into the role of minder and protector for Emma - his
idea of a nightmare. But as he spends more time with Emma it
becomes clear that maybe they are just perfect for each other -
but sadly life is never that simple...
Getting to know Riley has made Emma realise that she had never
really loved her ex, and that there could possibly be a happily
ever after later on in the future. And as Emma and Riley
explore their feelings, a friendship evolves into a real
relationship. Who cares if his snobbish parents can't stand
her? But when life throws a life-threatening curve-ball their
way, will they be able to fight their way through the darkness
together? Can they find the strength to carry on and understand
how precious love can be?
LA VIE EN ROSE by Lydia Michaels is a beautiful story that left
me smiling and crying in equal measure. This is a romance novel
that is so much more. Deeply emotional, the plot is portrayed
with such care and understanding, that it will make you stop in
your tracks, and appreciate what you have. Riley and Emma are
strong characters that learn what love truly means, as their
carefree relationship comes under pressure. Emma is a fighter
even when she is struggling, and Riley is the ultimate hero,
there for her every step of the way. LA VIE EN ROSE by Lydia
Michaels is a powerful novel about real love, real life, real
issues, and everyone should read this book.

fancy gowns, pretty pearls, and—of course—falling madly in
love. Then life happened. Finding herself one fiancé short
of her happily ever after, she leaves the fairytales behind.

Emma the pain of her breakup, he steps in as a friend, but
soon finds himself wanting more.
She was just a girl, but she somehow winds up being the
strongest woman he’s ever known. Losing her is not an option
and when life can’t be tied neatly in a pretty little bow,
he holds tight to all that he loves most in this world—his
Emma. His hero.
Sometimes the greatest scars are worn on the inside.
