Cheers and a champagne toast to Melissa Brown, a new-to-me-author, who wrote an amazing and unforgettable story. Champagne Toast is a moving and heartfelt second chance at love story.
Kate and Evan’s book spans more than five years beginning while each is in college and meet while working at a local bar. Their attraction is immediate and the chemistry between these two is combustible. Often times the road to happily ever after becomes bumpy and filled with potholes along the way.

For the past two years, I've been totally absorbed in the melodramatic, angst-ridden world of digital romance created (mostly) by indie authors. Their stories are usually written in 1st person POV and sometimes - as is the case here - in dual 1st person POV. IMO this is by far the best POV to tell a story from because the reader is privy to what is going on in the minds of both hero and heroine. It effectively does away with the "WTF moments" and thus brings a new vulnerability to the hero that,

If you've ever read a book written by Melissa Brown you already know the writing will be great; but let me tell you, folks...the love story will be amazing. Kate and Evan are no exception.
Can love, I mean, true, all-consuming love, be enough? Kate and Evan are on their jorney together to find out in this twisty-turvy, emotional ride. Meeting in college and discovering how it feels to genuinely feel like kindred souls, these two have many obstacles to overcome; mostly, self doubt and intense inse ...more

I really enjoyed reading this book. I felt the connection between Kate and Evan and kept my fingers crossed for them along the way. Could Evan be a better boyfriend? Well, I guess he could have been better when …………….(you will have to read to find out what I mean), BUT I totally understood where he was coming from!

I really liked this book. It was bittersweet throughout most of it. I loved Evan from the last book, and I liked meeting Kate. I say it was bitter sweet because it was so hard and frusterating seeing them want to be together but not. I can't wait for the next book. This was another great book by Melissa Brown.
I also love that even though Evan is in Bouquet Toss then could also be read as a stand alone novel it is great! ...more

4.5 stars!!!
ABSOLUTELY loved this one! I couldn't put it down! I enjoyed Bouquet Toss and was pleasantly surprised but had heard that this one was even better and I heard right. Really, it was amazeballs. I loved the back and forth POV's and the time jumps so we got to see their relationship begin and grow and then lead up to the present. i LOVED Evan - he's definitely swoon worthy and BBF material! I loved Kate and her sass and her usual confident demeanor but also understood her lack of self-c ...more
