Genre: Contemporary Romance
From The Book Junkie Reads . . . Choosing Happy (Madison Square, #2) . . .
Big shouts out to Sean. He is the
man. Young or not. He knew how to charm a woman and not sound lame or fake or
like the goal was only one thing. He got a girls ego lifted and maybe a little soaring.
Madison had a lot to learn since life with her ex ended. She has a life to find since before she lived to make others happy no matter how it effected her. In her life comes Sean and he gives her a whole new outlook on life and how it should be lived.
There were a lot of things that both Sean and Madison had to overcome or at least find a realistic way of coping with. I was drawn in to the fun of the way life presented around the younger man. I was compelled to finally live free, happy, and for yourself through Madison's growth.
Choosing Happy was a turn of life for a woman that felt things were never to get better and life was just down hill or monotone from this point on out. Madison had her own set of issue and as typical she took a lot of that out on the other person, Sean. The interference of family and friends put a little hitch in the spice and extra piece to the puzzle of how they were to work things out.
Harris gave me a fun read on how choosing to make ones' self happy can come at a price that's not so easy to pay.
BLURB
Madison Buchanan’s life has imploded…
Her husband left her for his nineteen-year-old intern, leaving her alone and faced with starting over in her forties. With the help of
her feisty best friend, Madison reinvents herself, armed with a new look and
open to new possibilities.
Sean
Taylor is gorgeous, fun, and young—very young…
He hasn’t had the best of luck. Sean’s track record with women is less than stellar, but when he walks into The Den one day, he just
can’t help but be captivated by a dark haired beauty with the sad eyes and killer legs. She’s a little older, but he doesn’t discriminate. More than anything, he wants to be the one to make her smile.
Sean
personifies the only thing that has eluded Madison all of her life—joy…
It was meant to be a fling, something fun, with no strings and zero drama, but Sean wants something more, and Madison is just not ready. She’s lived by the rules her family, her friends, even her boss have laid out for her, but her new life is not what she expected. Being with Sean opens feelings she never thought she’d experience.
The the demands of her family and her job throw her boring, simple life into chaos, and Sean is no exception…
Madison is left with a choice. Give in to the expectations
of the world around her—or choose to follow her heart and be happy.
But
choosing happy is so much harder than it seems.

“So beautiful, tell me about yourself,” I said, hoping to steer
the conversation down a lighter path.
“Why?”
I laughed. “Why not?”
“Don’t you think I’m a little old for you?”
I
smiled. “I don’t discriminate when it comes to beautiful
women.”
She laughed. “I’m sure you don’t.”
“So, tell me something.”
“Look, Sean, you’re sweet, but…”
I
clutched my chest and doubled over feigning pain. “Sweet?
Sweet
is the kiss of death,” I said.
“What?”
“No
guy wants to be sweet. Hot, sure. Sexy, definitely.
Ruggedly
handsome, well that’s a given, but sweet is just female code for I’m never
gonna sleep with you.”
“That’s not what I meant,” she said.
I
raised an eyebrow and leaned in closer. “Oh, so you do want to sleep with me?”
“What?
No!” She leaned away from me, so flustered that her
cheeks
turned fourteen different shades of red. She covered her face with her hands
and I laughed, taking a hold of her wrists to pull her hands away. Her blush
and that shyness was sexy as hell. She seemed so reserved and quiet, but every
once in a while, especially when provoked, this witty, sassy side came out and it made me want more.
“It’s
nothing to be embarrassed about,” I said. “A lot
of women want to sleep with me.”
