About this ebook

From USA Today bestselling author Stacey Kennedy comes a sexy and sweet second chance romance about a jilted bride who is done with relationships and a down-on-his-luck cowboy who’s not about to let her get away again.

True love deserves a second chance…

Everyone at Three Chicks Brewery knows that Amelia Carter has the magic touch when it comes to creating the perfect beer. Her ales have customers singing her praises and begging for more. Unfortunately, when it comes to love, the only magic she seems to have is the cursed kind. After being left at the altar by her ex-fiancé, Amelia gives up on the idea of happily-ever-after to focus on making the Carter family brewery a national success.

Beckett Stone finally started to believe in happily-ever-after the day Amelia’s worthless ex bailed on their wedding, finally giving Beckett another chance with his high school sweetheart— the only woman he’s ever loved. Unfortunately, Amelia’s broken heart is just one of the obstacles Beckett needs to overcome if he wants to win her for good. He knows he’s not the man Amelia deserves, particularly with his failed rodeo career, alcoholic father, and a universe that seems to have a twisted sense of humor when it comes to giving Beckett a break.

But when pressure mounts to create several new beers to promote Three Chicks Brewery, Amelia starts to fall apart, and Beckett swoops in with his gentle reassurances and hard work ethic. While the last thing Amelia wants is fall in love again, she can’t deny that her heart beats a little faster whenever she sees Beckett walk through the door. Soon, every warm caress and soft whisper of understanding becomes a balm to both of them. As Beckett makes his intentions clear, Amelia must decide if she can overcome her relationship fears and believe in the magic of true love again.

 

Ratings and reviews

5 Star review of Dirty Ginger(Three Chicks Brewery #3) by Stacey Kennedy Having read the first two books in the Three Chicks Brewer series I was excited to read Dirty Ginger. It was well written with characters that were easy to like and whose story you cannot help but become invested in. Amelia Carter is a guru when it comes to creating the perfect beer, a woman who has been hurt once to often and has subsequently sworn off men. She is focused on making the brewery a success. Beckett Stone (I just love his name) has loved Amelia since high school but since she was involved with her ex fiancee there was no point. Now all bets are off and although he knows he isn't the man for her he cannot help but pursue her. Now if only he can convince her to take a chance on him and what they could have. Their road to happiness will be rocky but it will be worth it if they can make it through. I loved these characters, both separately and together. There were times I laughed, times I teared up and times I swooned. I was cheering for these two to get the happily ever after that they both deserved.

I am a sucker for second chance/small town romances and throw in the fact that the H is a cowboy and I was all in. Once I started this it was really hard to put it down! This is the third book in the Three Chicks Brewery series and I absolutely loved it. Amelia Carter gets dumped at the altar and her fiance gets punched out by her ex-boyfriend....yes that is how the book started! After taking her two week "honeymoon" she comes home to get back to normalcy and little did she know that her ex-boyfriend and only true love, Beckett, would quickly become part of that normalcy. Beckett has had regrets about letting Amelia walk away since the day she did so years ago. He knew he needed to fix himself in case the day ever came when she would end up back in his life. Opportunity presents itself when Amelia is left at the altar. She is the only girl he has ever loved and he wants her back....no matter how long it takes to get her. From the moment these two have their first encounter after Amelia's wedding they are burning up for each other. Beck has trouble keeping his hands off of Amelia but he doesn't want to scare her off either and she comes to realize just how much she has always loved him. Their reunion is one of tenderness, fierce loving and rediscovering all in one! Everything about this story had my heart happy including all of the characters. Beckett had my heart breaking on a couple occasions but Stacey made sure to mend it back together by the books end. I have to say the time spent waiting for this story was totally worth it in the end.

Holy Moly, this had me ignoring everything around me and unable to put this down. It sucks you in from the first page until the last. I went through so many different emotions and it had me laughing, crying, and jumping for joy along with the characters. While I haven’t read the previous books in the series, I didn’t need to. Although I will be picking those up because I’m in love with the Carter sisters and the rest of River Rock. Beckett and Amelia took my heart with their pain, passion, past, guilt, lost and love.
