My New Favorite M/M Author-Shawn Lane

I found a new M/M author to enjoy. If you haven't read any of this author's books, then I must ask.....WHY NOT????!!!!! Shawn Lane is an author that had me crying, laughing and giggling within a space of a few hours. DH thought I was indeed cracking under it all but alas, it was this wonderful book that hit me in the heart. The following is my review for TWICE IN A LIFETIME, a Sutter Bay story.

Twice in a Lifetime
A Sutter Bay Story
Amber Quill Press
Available NOW

M/M Contemporary

Five years before, Jude thought he had everything he ever wanted-a nice life with a wonderful man to love until it all crashed down around him. Leaving San Francisco for Sutter Bay, Jude has tried to rebuild his life with a new career-owning & running a flower shop-and trying to live each day without Martin. Jude doesn’t believe love comes twice around and when the new vet doctor in town sets his sights on Jude, Jude is about to find out that love indeed can be twice as nice the second time around. He just has to believe in love again with Rex and in himself. Can Jude find the strength to let go of a past in order to have a future?


 Shawn Lane does a fabulous job in creating stories that hit you straight in the heart. I fell in love with Jude, with his madcap hair colors to his kohl lined eyes, this was a man I would love to be friends with and have him lean on me in trying times.  This was the first Sutter Bay story I read and when I finished this, I had to check the author website to see if there were any more available. I was thrilled to see there was with another planned. Jude and Rex had sparks from the start yet Jude was a broken man....one who had his life changed in the years before and he is still trying to find that peace again in Sutter Bay. The characters are multi-dimensional, the storyline quick and I have to admit...keep a box of tissues close by...you will need it! Shawn Lane is now on my auto buy list and I am working her back list of M/M titles to enjoy. 

If you  haven't experienced Sutter's Bay yet, I highly suggest you grab TWICE IN A LIFETIME and settle in for an afternoon of tears, heartbreak, healing and the power of love. I just hope I have more tissues in the cupboard for the next book.

NOTE: This  is not an endorsement nor has money changed hands for this review. It's just my opinion on a book I enjoyed and the author has not paid me for this.
