This was Mary Ann Rivers’ debut novel and I can’t wait to see what else she writes next.”—The Book Vixen   “A sparkling gem of sweet emotion!”—New York Times bestselling author Carly Phillips   “A beautiful love story full of sly wit, slow kisses, and heart-punching truths.

I was hooked from the first page.”—Elise Sax, author of An Affair to Dismember   “The plot of The Story Guy allows—demands—a slow physical build-up with delicious anticipation, making it an incredibly sexy read. The love scenes are fresh and exciting and intensely emotional. This was an intensely emotional read all around, for me. It probably won’t make every reader burst into tears, but it has a lot to offer anyone. 5 stars.”—Karen Knows Best
