Title: How To Say I Love You
Series: Olive Street Series
Author: Amanda Scheirer
Genre: NA/Women’s Fiction
Release Date:
It’s been seven years since Nessa last saw the unattainable love of her life. George was the older, mysterious boy next door who left home before Nessa was even out of her teenage years. Yet now he appears nightly in Nessa’s dreams proclaiming his love for her in romantic foreign cities. But George couldn’t actually be in love with Nessa, could he? On the verge of a quarter-life crisis, Nessa is ready to find out that answer. So she sets out to find George using her dreams as the road map. Enlisting her cousin/best friend Sami to go along with her, the two women embark on a European adventure that will test their hearts, friendship, and their own beliefs in fate.


❤️ I have so many hearts for this story. I’m not a cryer and avoid overly angsty, emotional wrought stories because life is too short for tears. But the truth is, tears are unavoidable if you really live. I am so glad I lived in this story right along with these fabulous characters. From the optimistically smitten Nessa to the anything goes Sami to the heartthrob George and lastly, the swoon-worthy Aaron. This story twisted my heart and I actually teared up when “The End” appeared because this story is so beautiful and pull emotions from me in the best way. It’s rare that I find a story so impactful that I am happy to shed a few tears. The writing was exquisite and I loved the journey of Nessa and Sami. It was filled with laughter and adventure and above all love. The colors popped, the sounds were foreign and the smells were of love. It was beautifully heartwarming and uplifting and charming and ultimately heartbreaking. But that’s life under the big top. It took a few chapters for me to get into the story but once I found its groove I was there until the end. So caught up in this fantastic journey of these two young women as they chase Nessa’s dreams across the ocean. I will remember this story for a long time and will revisit these new friends on their adventure of a lifetime. The author created a masterpiece of life long love and mystical fate. This is escapism at its best and that’s why I love to read. Amanda Scheirer, if all your stories are like this one I will devour them. Just terrific!

I love books! I have been reading for as long as I can remember. I was the kid with the flashlight under the covers reading until the wee hours. Books were my refuge. I was delighted to discover tree climbing. I would take a book and climb to the top of a Mimosa tree and read for hours...and of course ignore my mother calling for me to do chores. I was committed to reading all of the Nancy Drew stories. Ned was my first book boyfriend. When I was in my early teens I discovered Harlequin romances. I feel in love and it changed my life. I was in love with Love 💕 That’s something for a girl who hadn’t been kissed yet. When I read “he thrust his throbbing member into her womanhood” I was lost to discovering more about this particular brand of romance. But I don’t just enjoy romance reads. My father-in-law introduced me to the high fantasy genre and I loved it. When I bought my first Nook the world of books really took me by surprise. I was enthralled with all the available genres and to my delight I discovered erotica. In most cases, I was with family on visits to bookstores and you don’t peruse those even if they carried them. Oh the shame of it! ;) Thanks to Nancy Drew I still enjoy mysteries along with romance, fantasy, erotica, paranormal, steampunk, thrillers, and well, most anything except a horror of a horror. My favorite might be romance suspense but it’s hard for me to pick just one. I had a serious health issue a few years ago and was forced to quite working after building a career I could be proud of. It was devastating and depressing. I lost myself in books and now spend my days (and nights) reading. I am so appreciative of authors and the wonderful storytelling I’ve found in books. It takes me away from my troubles and introduces me into a world like no other. I love books!
