When workaholic Boston attorney Deirdra de Messiéres is passed over for a well-deserved promotion, she takes a two-month hiatus to show her boss just how much he needs her and heads home to Silver Island. But beyond seeing her sisters happy, home is not where Deirdra’s heart is. She has no interest in their family restaurant, the Bistro, or reliving hurtful childhood memories, and absolutely no interest in spending a single second with Josiah “Jagger” Jones, the Bistro’s too-laid-back musician and chef. Sure, the hippie is hot, but he drives her nuts. The guy lives in a van with his dog, and he can’t even commit to a solid work schedule. To make matters worse, he’s always around. She needs to get off the island, stat.

Jagger has overcome his own personal trials to place stock in life’s pleasures: family, friends, peace…and if he has his way, one positively beautiful, absolutely uptight attorney. Jagger knows he’s the perfect person to help Deirdra deal with her hurtful past and find her way back to being happy.

A chance encounter leads to deep conversation, and night after liberating night, Deirdra lets down her guard. But neither is long for Silver Island. Free-spirited Jagger has wanderlust, and Deirdra has a career to return to. They’re on different paths, and plans for a future together don’t stand a chance. But when has anything gone according to plan?

REVIEW:MAYBE WE WON’T is the third instalment in Melissa Foster’s contemporary, adult SILVER HARBOR erotic, romance series-one of the many spin offs from the author’s Love in Bloom Series. This is twenty-five year old, chef and musician Josiah ‘Jagger’ Jones, and thirty year old attorney Dierdra de Messieres’s story line. MAYBE WE CON’T can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty but I recommend reading the series in order for back story and cohesion as there is an ongoing premise throughout.

Told from dual third person perspectives (Jagger and Dierdra) MAYBE WE WON’T focuses on the building romance and relationship between twenty-five year old, chef and musician Josiah ‘Jagger’ Jones, and thirty year old attorney Dierdra de Messieres. Several months earlier Dierdra’s alcoholic mother died, and our heroine struggled in the aftermath, discovering her mother had a secret that was about to be exposed. Fast forward to present day wherein Dierdra is passed over for a promotion at the law firm, and our heroine embarks on a two month hiatus back home in Silver Island where our heroine will discover there is more to life than working hard for someone else. Enter chef and musician Jagger Jones, and the man with whom Dierdra will fall in love. What ensues is the building romance and relationship between Dierdra and Jagger, and the potential fall-out as their time together comes to a close.

Dierdra de Messieres had left Silver Island in the hopes to never return. Having lived through the loss of her father, and her mother’s spiral into alcoholism, Dierdra’s memories of the past are emotional and heart breaking. But Didi never expected to find herself falling for a man whose life is mostly lived on the road, a life Dierdra would never consider for herself. Spending time in Silver Island, preparing for her sister’s engagement party, Dierdra would find herself facing the past, a past she had pushed behind, and refused to relive. Josiah ‘Jagger’ Jones has always wanted to be a musician but life had other plans including the struggles of his brother who battled autism for as long as he could remember.Jagger had never intended to settle down or stay in one place forever thus working seasonal jobs as a chef then heading back on the road when the weather changed. Falling for Dierdra de Messieres was never in the cards but Jagger’s heart wanted something more than a summer fling with the woman with whom he had fallen in love.

The relationship between Jagger and Dierdra is one of immediate attraction but Dierdra struggles with Jagger’s lack of permanence, and his need to move on whenever the urge hit him hard. Dierdra knew her time and Jagger’s time in Silver Island was coming to a close but our heroine never expected to fall for a man who lifestyle was completely different than her own. The $ex scenes are intimate and passionate without the use of over the top, sexually graphic language and text.

As per Melissa Foster’s style, there is a large ensemble cast of colorful, energetic and familiar characters having crossed over from the previous instalments as well as several of the author’s related series. We are reintroduced to Dierdra’s sisters Cait and Abby, as well as many of the locals who live and work in and around Silver Island.

MAYBE WE WON’T is a story of family and friendships, relationships and struggles, acceptance and recognition, forgiveness and love. The character driven premise is emotional, entertaining and consuming; the characters are tenacious and dynamic; the romance is seductive and hot.
