Sunday Morning by Jewel E. Ann is now live!
A small-town, forbidden, standalone, new adult romance with Footloose meets A Star is Born vibes from USA Today & Wall Street Journal Bestselling author Jewel E. Ann
Her boyfriend’s older brother should be off-limits, but he’s a sinful temptation.
Sarah is a preacher’s daughter and a people pleaser. She’s also on the verge of graduating high school and following her dream of singing in Nashville. The only thing standing in her way is that the entire town of Devil’s Head, Missouri, thinks she will marry Matt, the son of the town’s richest rancher.
But Sarah’s not sure he’s her future husband, especially when his older brother, Isaac, returns home after serving six years in the Army. He has tattoos on his arms and bad habits that are not “father-approved.”
When he’s not working on the ranch or roping at the rodeo, Isaac hangs out in the barn, playing his guitar. He’s trouble, but Sarah's music-loving heart gravitates toward him.
Isaac loves consuming Sarah’s mind, crawling under her skin, backing her into corners, and whispering inappropriate things in her innocent ears.
After weeks of playful banter and guitar lessons blurring the line between right and wrong, Issac makes Sarah a proposition she can’t refuse.
But when the unthinkable happens, and everything she knows is destroyed, will Sarah make the right choice?

For every girl who couldn't voice their thoughts, their hopes, their aspirations, for the fear of "Rocking The Boat", this book is for YOU. Find your courage in it's pages and go save your drowning boat. What can I say about the prowess of Genius Jewel E.Ann!! Her signature, acute humanspotting sensibilities are splattered all over
Captivating prose and charismatic characters have you in their grip from the start. And i can Guarantee, you'd be so engrossed, you'd have to pull an all nighter.
If I could give it ALL the STARS, I would. It's truely a Delightful Love Tale that spellbinds you from first page. Even though I'm sick with covid and have a hard time focusing, I Could. Not. Put. The. Book. Down . Jewel is an EXCEPTIONAL storyteller, and this shouldn't have come as a surprise, but I'm always dumbstruck by her absolutely perfectn stories. Over and over again.
“It happened slowly at first, so slowly I didn’t see it. Then it just happened all at once. Taking my breath away. "
Me too Sarahhhh, me too.. You don't even realize how this unassuming, rich with small town fragrance, story envelops your heart and you're gone! Completely under Isaac Cory's spell. His unconditional, uplifting love for Sarah is the stuff perfect book boyfriends are made of. Sarah's family is indebted and reliant on Cory's, so she and Matt are assumed to be together till the wedding. It's an unspoken fact by all including the parents. But a simple turn of events has Isaac returning to hometown of Devil's Head, Missouri, as the Devil Himself.
In the church.
To entice Sarah.
"I didn’t fall in love with Isaac. I found myself in love with him. In him, I found myself. "
Since the story is set in the 80s, it became all the more special to me. I was Sarah's age in the 80s. Had my first crush. Had my heart broken. Fell in love. Struggled with the definition of right and wrong. Basically I identified with her
"In my head, I was a fearless rebel. I dreamed of breaking all the rules. In reality, I was a good girl with the occasional sinfully brave moment."
The best part about this book was Jewel's fair minded treatment of Matt. He could easily develop a flaw, slip on morality or treatment of Sarah, but he truely does love her, in his own way. It's easy to hate a villain, but falling out of love for no reason, other than that its pulled towards another, was a remarkable piece of writing from jewel
"He loved me more than I loved him. That. Broke. My. Heart. "
The story is about the "Average" underdogs. In life, in love, in careers. who blend in the background, people pleasers, family's secret vaults. They go through life without creating any major ripples. Quietly existing and no one asks them their plans, their dreams. Jewel puts them on a pedestal. The underdogs win the deserved HEA and it's heartening to read.
"Not everything that was right was fair. And not everything that was fair was right. "
I have to mention Isaac here. He's a rebel, but not outspoken. He willingly wears the mantle of a Troublesome truant, but he rescues sarah as his Soulmate. The quiet confidence with which he pursues her, without overt villainous moves was mind-blowing. He just exists as a best option for her, her dreams and her future. The subtlety was amazing to read.
My ramblings won't end soon, but you Must Read this book and feel ALL THE FEELS in Caps
