 My Whatever After Review . . . 
 I always adore E.M. Tippetts and even more because Someone Else's Fairtyale was one my first reviews for an Author that I ever did. It's been great to watch the evolution of Jason and Chloe and especially their sarcastic wit and banter between characters. Whatever After is book five in this series, which means its best if read as a series so you truly get the back story of the friendship of Lori and Chloe and the love between Jason and Chloe. 
 This time around Jason and Chloe are trying to live out their HEA, but life is never easy for Chloe. Especially when her lunatic brother comes back into the picture. With her brother making threats to Chloe's best friend and her wedding. It causes Chloe to go back home and help Lori out. 
 But where Chloe goes, so does trouble. Even if she doesn't ask for it. She's like a magnet for drama. But thankfully with her profession the suspense is always a bit more fun the usual suspense stories. 
 "This was supposed to be frivolous and overkill, Miss Chloe. What is 
 it with you and smart criminals? Why can't you get the usual violent 
 dimwits?" 
 "I'm just special like that." 
 To some Chloe may be larger than life by whom she's married to, but to her family and friends she's just Chloe. And this time around she wants the best for her friend even if Lori only gets whatever after. 
 "So we decided to give up on happily ever after. We're committing to whatever after. It's less romantic, but that's life, and that's okay." 
 I adore the loyalty and friendship between Lori and Chloe. I also love the growth and change of the dynamics between Beth and Chloe and now Mr. Winters. Jason and Chloe are always a bit awkward and sarcastic but also extremely cute and perfect for one another. I adore these two together and this series is always great for sweet and drama filled suspense.
