Forever Yours
By BeautifulRose16
Rated: PG-13
Maureen Carvelli, a young, pretty but socially inept heiress, has only recently been thrust up the social ladder defined by fame and wealth. Her large family has surfaced a state of poverty and obscurity, and with the starkly contrasted life of ease and luxury come certain privileges - like having an around the clock chauffeur for your every beck and call. Maureen reluctantly agrees to her father hiring her her own personal limo driver but it's only when she claps eyes on him for the first time that she thinks it was ever a good idea. Ryan Adams is young, charming, and handsome; almost instantly, he seems to take an interest in his new employer, the beautiful, wealthy heiress, Maureen. The two hit it off but neither realizes just how quickly they will tumble into, what is, to Maureen, forbidden... a secret relationship which cannot be made known because Maureen, not yet eighteen, is not allowed to date.
Forever Yours is an unorthodox tale of love, that includes family, friendship, faith, hope, heartbreak and the momentous journey growing up entails. As Maureen finds herself spinning in circles, battling her conscience and the growing love she feels for Ryan, wavering between the great mediums of right and wrong. She will ultimately have to make the decision. The question is... once she makes her choice, what will be the consequences?

Forever Yours is a Christian romance novel written by BeatifulRose16. Pushing on 7 million reads, this book has been pretty popular – and with good reason.
This story was adorable. I mean, seriously – falling in love with your limo driver? Talk about cute.
Now for the nitty grittys...
Spiritual
The main character and her family are Christians, but their faith is not a predominate feature in this story; it’s more of an undertone. Still, it was there, and you could see how it impacted their life.
Sexual
This book has a lot of kissing, some of which are very descriptive. Sex is implied once; a couple of the characters are flirtatious and make a few vulgar comments.
There is also some drinking / drunkenness.
Profanity
One of the main characters is not a Christian, and he and another character use some pretty strong language on occasion – I don’t think they swear more than ten times. Use of the f word is implied.
All in all, I enjoyed this novel. The story was sweet, and the written quality was superb. I was disappointed with some of the content, and felt that the story would have been improved without it. However, I appreciated how Maureen wanted to honor her father, and related to the story in a lot of ways. BeautifulRose16 seems to be a talented writer.
