BECKONED: slow burn, second-chance romance inspired by food, travel, and Jane Austen. Over 300 reviews with 4.4+ average. Part 4 in a 6-part series. "Let me just say,this series has been my absolute favorite series I have read in 2018 so far. Aviva Vaughn set out to write a slow burn and vivid story, and she nailed it on the head! With inspiration from Jane Austen, she has reimagined the writing style of her in a way you will fall in love with from the get go. I fell in love with the places I have never been, and feel as if I have tasted the food.This would be a series I would love to see in a film or even a mini series on tv would be amazing." -Liz, 5-star review "I am saying now that this is probably one of the best series that I have read so far this year! I cannot wait for more!!Again the authors writing is just superb, the detail, the descriptions, they are just beautiful and I still feel like I am right there along with thesecharacters." -Katie, 5-star review "This lady has completely captured me with this series, at first I was intrigued to see how an American author would write about the UK and she definitely did it justice, and I fell in Love with a brilliant read and found a absolutely amazing author that has become one of my top ten. This is definitely a series you want to read." -Claire, 5-star review "Every now and then you're faced with a book that makes you think of how little sleep you actually need to function the next morning, for me part four of the Beckoned series is that book. I haven't been quiet about how much I love Angela's story up until this point and just when I think Aviva Vaughn has reached max potential the next book in the series blows me away even more." -Felicia., 5-star review "The wholestory/series has been fascinating and captivating- with Ms. Vaughn upping the ante with each instalment, each book slightly eclipsing the last. I was enthralled through each and every book in a way I never expected to be going into this series." -Angela, 5-star review "All I can say is that I loved how everything came together in the end even though I did not expect this at all. Be prepared for some emotional scenes that may draw out the ugly cry. Aviva has definitely stepped it up in this part of the series. I highly recommend this great series." -Michelle, 5-star review "Somehow, I love each new book more than the last! This story is romantic, charming, touching and heart wrenching. I completely devoured this book in one sitting, I just love these characters so much. Each time I start a book by Aviva I have to prepare myself for the emotional story I know will take place." -Kaitlyn, 5-star review "Wow. What an amazing conclusion to Angela's story! There are hardly words to describe how beautifully Aviva Vaughn describes every bit of scenery, life and the people in these books. She weaves a heart-clenching ending to a wonderful story! Do yourself a favor and read the entire series! This book lends a certain theme that really stuck with me, and while I won't say what that is, I found it to be just what Angela needed in her life to be truly happy as well as something I really needed to read. This book is so much more than a romance book; it really teaches you about doing what makes you happy and love your life. Angela is truly a character I feel many women could look up to and respect. Many thanks to Aviva Vaughn for sharing this story with the world! LOVED IT! FIVE STARS!!" -Emily, 5-star review "I find it so hard to write a review about this series because I just want to shout out about everything that happens. Yet at the same time I don't because everyone needs to experience it for themselves to get the full effect of these stories.There has never been a point during all these books that I could honestly say I knew what was going to happen. This series will grip you and take you on such a journey that you will not be able to atop reading until, like me, you have devoured them all. I cannot recommend this series highly enough." -Kerry, 5-star review FROM THE AUTHOR Dearest Reader, I wrote BECKONED for many reasons, but first and foremost, I wrote it to feature the kind of people I know: diverse, smart, complicated men and women. My heroines are strong and educated, and my heroes are polite and respectful. As an avid reader, I wanted to see characters that looked like me and my friends and reflect the world I want to see. I also wanted to write a beautiful book. I consider BECKONED to be a modern story told in an old-fashion way with lots of metaphors and beautiful phrases, and where the sex is explicit but also elegant. So if you are a Word Nerd like me, then you will love BECKONED! If you choose to embark on this journey with me, you--and your taste buds--will get to visit London, Barcelona, Bath, Los Angeles, Honolulu, Costa Rica, New Zealand, and Copenhagen. It will be a fun--and delicious--ride! There are even recipes in some of the books as well as soundtracks to give you a multi-sensory experience. BECKONED is a single story in six parts and should be read in order. The intimacy is steamy, but it is slooooooow burn and is distributed throughout the books because of how the couples' relationships change and deepen. Birthing BECKONED has truly been a labor of love, and I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it! BUCKLE UP and enjoy the journey. Wishing you love and romance, ~Aviva
