A sexy NFL star reunites with his lost love and finds a family he never knew existed in this exciting new contemporary African American romance. Brynne Armstrong, a counsellor at a Detroit women's centre, returned to Detroit after an abrupt break-up with her boyfriend Devin Prescott, star NFL quarterback. For the past four years her life has revolved around work and her 3-year-old daughter Shanna, but that changes when Devin suddenly reappears. Devin is shocked to run into Brynne at a party. His old pain returns as he remembers how Brynne left him without any explanation. But he finally gets his explanation, or at least part of it, when Brynne tells him she left because she was pregnant. What she doesn't tell him is that she became pregnant after being raped, and doesn't know if the baby is Devin's or her attacker's. She has never tried to find out Shanna's father's identity out of fear that it would be the attacker, but now she must know the truth and asks Devin to take a paternity test. They discover that he is the father. Not knowing about her attack, he's furious and hurt that she was cheating on him, and that he missed the first years of his daughter's life. As he spends time with Shanna he feels confused about Brynne. He still loves her but thinks he can't trust her. Brynne also still loves him, but she's never told anyone about her attack. She is afraid of what he will think, or if he'll even believe her. But they know they want to be a family, and that will mean taking risks and learning to trust each other again.
Again, I can't say enough about Bette Ford's romantic, sizzling love stories. I'm so glad we met Brynne Armstrong, the lady who captured Devin Prescott's heart. In the future, I would love to hear that Ralph Prescott(Devin's playa cousin) finds a woman (preferably Vanessa Grant)that can tame him! I'd be repetitive if I went on about this book. Please read it and all Ms. Ford's books!
WOW! TEARS OF JOY

I simply loved this book, I don't know how Bette Ford keeps putting out such great love stories. This story starts off at a party Brynne Armstrong and Devin Prescott are both at, one look at her and Devin realize he is still in love with her now as much as he had been in love four years ago. Brynne quickly leaves the party to return to her true joy (her daughter). Devin finds her, and from there the story really takes off. Brynne has been blaming herself for not only leaving her true love four years ago, but for a incident that happen. Bette Ford showed some of the best writing ever, I felt for Brynne and I felt Devin pain. Devin showed what a real man is, also that sex is not as important as LOVE. Devin was gentle, caring, loving and most of all patient. I finished the book in a day. I am so glad I read this book. Bette Ford raised the bar for men everywhere. I thank you.

This was a wonderful book linking us again to the Prescott family. You got me with "Unforgettable" I could not put it down. The same holds true with "An Everlasting Love" Being a true romantic i fell inlove with Devin. He was the kind of man every woman would love to have. He was a sweetheart in this book. I really enjoyed the way the story was written, bringing true love back together again. Truly this was a everlasting love. Where are they and how do you get a Prescott man!!!!! Looking forward to the next book. Can't wait to see who will owns Ralph's heart. I am hoping it will be Vanessa. Keep up the good work!
This will be...an everlaaaasting love

I love Bette Ford! Why can't they all write like this I couldn't wait until this came out. I was not disappointed. Devin and Brynne were torn apart years ago by a devasting tragedy when a chance encounter at a social event brings them back in contact with one another. Without spoilers, I thought that both Devin's reactions and Brynne's pain were very real. This was the perfect romance with enough passion and enough character growth to have me re-reading it again a week after I bought it. Dialogue = EXCELLENT! Family (supporting cast) = EXCELLENT! Friends (supporting cast) = EXCELLENT. Storyline= EXCELLENT! My only complaint is that in the confrontation scene at the end I expected a different reaction from Devin. But in hindsight it was handled appropriately. I wonder who Ralph's going to end up with? I can't wait. Thank you for taking time with your craft and rewarding my inner booklover. EXCELLENT JOB! A recommendation to all go grab this book and her others -you WON'T be disappointed. -A girl from Southfield, MI
