ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date October 20. 2020.

My love story all started with a letter.

Only it wasn’t from the man I’d eventually fall in love with. It was from his daughter. A sweet little girl named Birdie Maxwell who’d written to the magazine that I worked for.

You see, once a year, my employer fulfilled a few wishes for readers. Only that column didn’t start up again for months.

So I fulfilled some of her wishes myself. It was harmless…so I thought. Until one day I took things too far.

While anonymously granting yet another of Birdie’s wishes, I got a look at her father. Her devastatingly handsome, single dad father.

I should have stopped playing fairy godmother then. I should have left well enough alone. But I just couldn’t help myself. I had a connection to this girl. One that had me acting irrationally.

Like showing up on their doorstep.

REVIEW: HAPPILY LETTER AFTER co-authored by Vi Keeland and Penelope Ward is a contemporary, adult, erotic, stand alone romance story line focusing on thirty-six year old restaurateur and widower Sebastian Maxwell, and twenty-nine year old, columnist Sadie Bisset’s story line.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Sadie and Sebastian) HAPPILY LETTER AFTER follows the building romance and relationship between thirty-six year old restaurateur, single father and widower Sebastian Maxwell, and twenty-nine year old, columnist Sadie Bisset. Sadie Bisset is a dating columnist for a local paper but writes a ‘Holiday Wishes’ column on the side. Several months before Christmas, Sadie receives a Dear Santa letter from Birdie, a ten year old girl struggling to believe Santa is real, yet still wishing for her widowed father to be happy again. Granting Birdie a few early wishes, Sadie found herself outside of Birdie’s New York brownstone, wherein Sebastian Maxwell, Birdie’s father mistakenly believes Sadie is the new dog trainer. Never one to turn down an opportunity, Sadie lies to Sebastian, and proceeds to ‘train’ a dog who does not want to be trained. Weeks will pass as Sadie, Sebastian and Birdie grow closer together until Sebastian discovers the truth about our story line heroine. What ensues is the building romance and relationship between Sadie and Sebastian, as our couple must come to terms with the past, the present and a possible future.

The relationship between Sadie and Sebastian is predicated upon a lie as Sadie pretends to be the family’s new dog trainer. As the weeks pass, Sadie will discover that her attraction to Sebastian includes falling for his daughter, a little girl that has the ability to see beyond her years. Secrets are revealed pulling Sebastian and Sadie closer together but not before Sebastian battles with what was and what may be. The $ex scenes are intimate, erotic and passionate without the use of over the top, sexually graphic language and text.

We are introduced to Sebastian’s ten year old daughter Birdie, and their Great Dane Marmaduke, as well as their housekeeper Magdalene; Sadie’s father George Bisset, and her best friend and assistant Devin.

HAPPILY LETTER AFTER is an emotional, delightful and wonderful story of family, friendships, relationships and love. The premise is captivating and enjoyable; the romance is seductive and sexy; the characters are colorful, charismatic, and charming.
