Caswell
Every time I check social media, I wonder if this is the time. The time he’s not between his moms, but standing next to some guy who better know how fucking lucky he is to have my man. Some guy who, given the track record in this family, will undoubtedly be in complete and utter love with Baylor and vice versa. Just like all his brothers.
Then Baylor Mann sends me one of the last songs he’s going to write for me.
He sang it for me himself.
He knows I can’t pass on it.
It’s too personal, too real for anyone’s voice to touch it but mine.
It was made for me. Just like Baylor Mann himself.

Caswell Vaughn is the superstar music man the world knows, but his words are mine. For years I have poured myself into the lyrics I write for him, but he doesn’t know all those lost love songs are about him. When an opportunity to collaborate brings Caswell back to Bear Valley, I finally have the chance to get closure and move on from him. Maybe, after all this time, there is enough of my heart to salvage for the day someone else is able to catch my attention. But when Cas is back in my life, staying in my house, closure from my feelings is the last thing on my mind.
A rockstar and his songwriter get a second chance at love in this small-town romance set in a Colorado ski resort. Music Mann book is the fourth and final book in the Bear Valley Series.

REVIEW:
😢
That’s how I feel this moment. I’m not ready for this amazing universe to be over. The Mann’s have infiltrated my heart and took up residence. The moment I started reading Forever Mann I fell in love with this family that Rita and Ellen amassed. Those two women took in four amazing young teenage boys and gave them the lives they deserved. They chose Jack, Baylor, Matt and Quinn. When they decided to make a family they adopted those boys and made them their own. That means the world to me on so many levels and Author Aries France created the most amazing series that I simply don’t want to end. Tears stain my cheeks as I realize that Bear Valley is slipping away from me. Four teenage boys that grew into such great and loving examples of what a man should be. But I’m not ready for them to leave me. They are just getting started. I hope that we can convince her to write a few novellas to keep us caught up on what happens now that they each have found their one and are living the happily ever after.
Bee (Baylor) and Cas’s (Caswell) story was so special. A love lost but found again. The right time finally for them to express their love and for it to grow. I hated that thirteen long years slipped by and they never knew that the other pined for them as much as they pined for the other. But again…right place/right time! But the loneliness while accomplishing what they each set out to do is hard. A really good second-chance love story always gets to me and this one had all the great feels they need.
I know it took a lot for both men to finally open up to what they were feeling but were too afraid to voice it. I wanted, at times, to shove the two of them in a locked room with a giant sign that just stated “open you eyes and your heart and just say it!” They both wanted the same thing but didn’t trust that the other did. But the Mann brothers, their mates and their friend, Cas’s PA Nix did all along. Thankfully Cas finally confronted Bee or they would still be pussyfooting around each other!
If you haven’t taken the time to read this amazing series you are in for such a great treat. Think of it as a Holiday gift to yourself. Snuggle up under a warm blanket and be prepared to be wowed because this story and the whole series really are that great! Huge 5 hearts/thumbs up for me. If I could give this series higher I would. It’s just that awesome!
