Do you believe in fairy tales? Prince Charming? Love? Happily Ever Afters? As most young little girls, we all of have read some kind of fairy tale that dealt with a prince charming or a knight in shining armor. We were told these young men could sweep you off your feet and you could live happily ever after. But as adults, some begins to lose faith in the magic of love. For some, the idea of prince charming is just a fairy tale. But in Karen Ferry's debut book, Make Me Believe, Karen makes her readers BELIEVE. Believe in the power of love, happily ever after, second chances, and healing.

Do opposites attract? Can a shy geeky virgin be the one to sweep a feisty sassy tattoo beauty off her feet and make her believe that she is worthy of love? In Make Me Believe, Ms. Ferry takes her readers on emotional journey of sweet, pure, raw, beautiful love. This book was able to weave friendship, healing, second chances and steam with the story of Daniel and Emma. Daniel is not your typical alpha dominant hero. Nope, he's simply your geeky virgin hero who has a heart of gold. And this geeky hero was able to make you heart swoon and heal the broken pieces of your heart. And that's what he did for Emma.
Emma is the complete opposite of Daniel. Sex was used as an outlet for her to escape her demons and past. It was her way to feel numb that is until Daniel showed her what it truly meant to slow down. The relationship between these two was a slow burn that really emphasized two people getting to know each other, walls breaking down, and matters of the heart being treasured. What Ms. Ferry did was allowed her readers to feel the gambit of emotions that Emma was feeling from love, happiness, truth, hope, and respect. She allowed Emma to see beyond meaningless sex but true deep friendship that blossomed to a real caring and healthy relationship. Once the walls of Emma's heart was exposed, Ms. Ferry was able to turn up the heat and steam between Emma and Daniel. And let me just say, this geeky virgin hero was a fast learner. (wink)

So if you are looking for a book where emotions are tangible, palpable, and raw then look no further than Make Me Believe by Karen Ferry. Ms. Ferry did an amazing job for her debut book highlighting and showcasing that love indeed heals. The power of love is an amazing feeling and for any romance junkie, Karen really does make you believe. So believe me when I say, that this book was an addictive sweet read that will spellbind you when two unlikely opposites find themselves on a collision course of love.

Both characters in this story have their own past that they continue to deal with and only sharing will completely let them free to fully love each other. This is a sweet sweet romance that will make you believe in happily ever after. Daniel will make you fall in love, even if you didn’t believe in love. He is one of the sweetest book boyfriend you will ever have a pleasure of meeting, with an added bonus alpha male characteristics. Then there’s Emma, who is rough around the edges, that don’t want to show weakness. But when Daniel came into her life, he became her weakness. Emma never believed in love, but with Daniel she started to. Daniel did everything and anything to make Emma believe that love do exist, that if she lets him in..she will have the love that they both deserve. A love strong and consuming, that will make your heart soar. Oh let me tell you, when these two decided to take their love to a whole new level, wow. Can I say Hot? At the park and the excitement of being caught. Restaurant play time and so on. These two may have waited a little while to have each other completely, but their play times have been always fun and sexy. This is a really great debut book by Karen Ferry. I cannot wait to see what she comes up with next. Love it.
