THEN-YOU-HAPPENED-KRISTY-BROMBERG
Jack Sutton was the man I didn’t want to need.
His know-it-all attitude. His annoying suggestions. His outlook on life.
He was determined to help me while I had resolved to figure it out on my own.
But he taught me things I’d forgotten.
How to trust. How to believe in myself. Who I was.
The problem?
I went and fell in love with him.
---
Tatum Knox was the disaster I should have walked away from.
Her ruined reputation. Her failing business. Her chaotic life.
She hated me at first sight and yet intrigued me all at the same time.
I was only supposed to be there six months.
I was supposed to use that time to make amends for things I’d done wrong.
Instead I fell in love with her.
---
They say it’s better to have loved and lost, then not to have loved at all. Does that hold true when the love is based on a lie to begin with?
(THEN YOU HAPPENED is a STANDALONE enemies to lovers, small town romance. Full-length at one hundred and seven thousand words)

Excerpt
“Just face it, Knox. You’re head over heels in love with me.” Jack finally smiles, dimple winking and those eyes lighting up as he takes a step toward me, holding the scoop to his chest. “You can’t be near me because you want me, and you can’t talk to me because you get all flustered and tongue-tied.” “There is nothing about you I find attractive,” I lie. He places the scoop in my hand but doesn’t let it go when I try to take it. “It’d be much easier and a whole lot less distracting if I could say the same of you.” He lets go of the scoop and dips the tip of his hat in an aw-shucks kind of way. “But I’m not one to lie.” Our eyes hold across the short distance as his comment floats through the air and fades like the dust specks dancing in the sunlight. “That won’t work, you know?” I say. “What won’t?” “You trying to charm me every time you want something. I know your kind, Jack Sutton, and I’m not impressed by them.” “Is that so?” He shifts on his feet and adjusts his hat before re-crossing his arms over his chest. “And what kind is that?” “A man who uses his good looks and smooth words to get his way with people. A man who turns on the charm to disguise it.” His eyes darken and then narrow. “Just like you’re the woman who keeps living her privileged life . . . fiddling while Rome burns down around her?” he counters, making me want to scream that he knows nothing about me or how I live or what I’ve been through for the last year. A small part of me is shouting about how that was his point, but I tell the voice to shut up. “And if by good looks and smooth words, you’re implying I’m like Fletcher, I suggest you not infer that again.” That muscle in his jaw feathers in contempt. “I’m not the woman you think I am.” He twists his lips and stares at me in a way that feels like he is seeing right through me. It’s unnerving and unsettling, and I force myself not to look away because his silence is telling me that maybe he thinks I am. I’m not sure why that bugs me. Why I want him to see me as someone different. “I’m not even certain you know who that woman is either.”




This is a great enemies to lovers romance set in a small town full of noisy residents who are more than happy to gossip about the newly widowed Tate and her new sexy ranch manager Jack. I have to be honest this book took me a few chapters to really get into but I’m so glad I persevered because as this couple got to know each other I found myself wanting more from Jack and Tate. On the face of it this couple should not be attracted to each other, Jack is only at the ranch to help Tate after her husband passed away and he is hiding secrets that could destroy a friendship let alone a romance .......
This book really touched me on so many levels once I got into the plot I found I couldn’t put this book down, I needed to know what happened when the secrets came out. This is an emotional beautifully written love story, it’s sweet yet sexy with some gut-twisting, heartbreaking moments, I loved the characters and the witty banter they shared and I ended up wanting more from this small town and it’s residents.






Whenever I see the name Kristy Bromberg I know I am in for an entertaining read and Then You Happened was no exception.

From the first to the last chapter, I was riveted to the roller coaster story that Ms. Bromberg wove. I loved the characters of Tatum (Tate) Knox and Jack Sutton although at times I wanted to scream in frustration.

Tate, is struggling to keep her business afloat and is desperate for help. Ignored by the local towns people, her ranch is in dire need of a manager.

As I have come to expect from her books, this author has delivered strong characters written with depth and an ending that will leave you shaking your head.

This is a story that will challenge you, it is about taking a chance , of looking deep inside and learning to trust again, not only others but yourself.

Despite being total opposites, there is an attraction that sizzles between Jack and Tate. The only issue is whether or not they should act on it, since becoming involved will complicate both their lives.

Will the complications of their pasts put in jeopardy their chance at a relationship? A story of love, secrets, forgiveness, deception and lies and was an enjoyable read.
 




Then You Happened centres on Tate and her life.
Its a rather sad story showing how her husband is and how her lifes struggles make her the woman she is.
It took me quite a few chapters to get into the story and even though I persevered reading on, I did get why Tate was the way she was. I admired the way Jack did his utmost to help with her ranch but I had this inkling that somewhere somehow the secret he was hiding would eventually come out!
This was an ok read for me. Im genuinely intrigued as to what the author will write next.
