Ghosts are real.

Well, technically speaking, maybe not. But the ones that haunt a man’s soul? Those are very real. So real, in fact, that there are times when Castiel would rather silence them forever in the worst way possible than to go on living with them haunting his every step.

All it took was one single second in time for his attention to drift, and everything changed.

Life as he once knew it, is over.

Now he’s struggling to make sense of the pieces that are left, and he’s fairly sure at least half of them are missing.

He’s living for three things now.

His club—the Bear Bottom Guardians.

His work as a police officer for Bear Bottom Police Department.

And the occasional glimpse of a girl that makes his spirit feel free.

Despite the ghosts that haunt him, he’s not willing to present them with another target. Which is why he has to stay away from her. He can’t touch her. He can’t talk to her. He can’t get anywhere near her.

Not and live with himself afterward.

The only problem is, Turner doesn’t care what Castiel wants. She also has a solution for his ghosts.

You may call her Ms. Ghostbuster.

Zee + Annmarie and Tan + Jubilee.

Forever. No exceptions.

They were to have the picture-perfect life together. Everything was all planned out.

Jubilee was to marry Eitan and Ezekiel was to marry Annmarie. That’s how it was always supposed to be from the moment that they met. Textbook, right?

Wrong.

Eitan and Annmarie die in a freak accident that never should have happened, leaving the two survivors reeling.

Sixteen years later, Jubilee and Zee can’t even be in the same room with each other before things begin to deteriorate. Too many memories. Too much pain. Not enough forgiveness.

They’re like hellfire and holy water, and neither one of them is willing to admit that they’re wrong.

Then one day things change, and all of a sudden, they’re looking at each other like maybe they aren’t each other’s enemies after all.

From New York Times Bestselling Author Kristen Proby comes the newest installment in her beloved Big Sky Series… 

Max Hull left Cunningham Falls a long time ago. Thanks to his killer instincts and business smarts, he’s come back to town richer than anyone’s wildest imagination. Now he’s closer to his family, living in his dream home, and at the top of his career—it sure looks like he has it all. 

All but one thing. And she’s not interested. 

Willa Monroe and Max were childhood sweethearts. She daydreamed about their wedding day and named their children, but Max’s dreams were bigger than her. After high school, he left her behind without another word. Now, Willa is a single mother and a successful business owner, and the heartbreak of losing Max was a very long time ago. 

She’s moved on. 

But when he walks into her shop and back into her life, suddenly it feels like no time has passed at all. He’s as handsome as ever, and more charming than she remembered. Once he makes friends with her son and turns his attention on her, how long will she be able to resist him? 

And does she really want to? Sometimes you do get a second chance at first love.

4 ‘Gift of Joy and Love’ Stars

 

Waiting for Willa truly shows how powerful, emotionally and realistically a second chance romance can be in Kristen Proby’s words. Willa and Max’s story was in the most beautiful ways the definition of a second chance!

I’ve been anxiously awaiting for these two’s story after the very first book of this spin off series that I love so much. When it was shown their background and how Willa moved on after the pain Max cause her by leaving when they were young, and built an amazing life for her own, I was hooked and wanted to know more.

This book had me captivated from the very beginning with that shocking Prologue, to end with that beautiful Epilogue. Both Max and Willa revealed themselves, very much in character with Ms. Proby’s writing talent that I love, as very mature and realistic. And little Alex just worked as the perfect element of fusion and balance for more added realism to their evolving relationship.

The non OTT angst, but the deep emotional connection that was palpable, and the love that never truly had disappeared just made me swoon that much more for these two. Ms. Proby indeed has an extraordinary talent to make us connect and feel what her characters are feeling, and her world building and family dynamic, brilliant! So much so I’m excitedly awaiting for Fallon’s story after that little tease of the intriguing character! Can’t wait! <3 <3 <3 <3

Kristen was born and raised in a small resort town in her beloved Montana. In her mid-twenties, she decided to stretch her wings and move to the Pacific Northwest, where she made her home for more than a dozen years.

During that time, Kristen wrote many romance novels and joined organizations such as RWA and other small writing groups. She spent countless hours in workshops, and more mornings than she can count up before the dawn so she could write before going to work. She submitted many manuscripts to agents and editors alike, but was always told no. In the summer of 2012, the self-publishing scene was new and thriving, and Kristen had one goal: to publish just one book. It was something she longed to cross off of her bucket list.

Not only did she publish one book, she’s since published close to thirty titles, many of which have hit the USA Today, New York Times and Wall Street Journal Bestsellers lists. She continues to self publish, best known for her With Me In Seattle and Boudreaux series, and is also proud to work with William Morrow, a division of HarperCollins, with the Fusion Series.

Kristen and her husband, John, make their home in her hometown of Whitefish, Montana with their two pugs and two cats.

Jodi Ellen Malpas wrote her debut series, The This Man Trilogy, in secret, worried about what people might think if they knew what her imagination was capable of. She was shocked herself. But she finally found the courage to unleash her creative streak and self-published THIS MAN – the first book of the This Man Trilogy – in October 2012. She took a chance on the story with a hero who soon became one of modern day fictions most prolific alpha male characters. Jesse Ward – also affectionately known as The Lord of The Manor, sparked incredible reactions from women across the globe and catapulted Jodi into the world of romance.

She was soon signed by Grand Central Publishing, part of the Hachette Book Group, and the third book of the trilogy, This Man Confessed, took Jodi to the top of the bestsellers lists, earning her the proud title of #1 New York Times Bestselling Author. This Man has since been voted one of the top romance novels of all time. With so much love and enthusiasm for her words, Jodi suddenly wasn’t afraid of her imagination anymore and has since let it run riot. Writing powerful love stories and creating addictive characters has become her passion—a passion she now shares with her devoted readers.

Jodi was born and raised in the Midlands town of Northampton, England, where she lives with her real-life man, her boys, and a beagle. She is a self-professed daydreamer, a Converse and mojito addict, and has a terrible weak spot for alpha males.  Her work is now published in more than twenty-five languages across the world.

Benson Bayou Beauregard is the president of the Bear Bottom Guardians MC, and the grandson of the Sergeant at Arms for the Dixie Wardens MC. He’s a mountain of a man and the warden of a prison, and there’s only one thing that can scare him—being told that he’s the father of a three-year-old little girl. 

A three-year-old little girl that has no clue who he is. Hell, he only finds out about the little cherub when a woman from child protective services comes by and rocks his world before leaving the girl in his shocked arms. 

Every single thing he thinks he knows goes up in a cloud of smoke. 

To make matters worse, the woman that he’s been trying to convince to give him a chance takes one look at the little girl and tells him that he’s just not in the right place to handle both of them. 

But Bayou was never one to back down from a challenge. 

He can handle a three-year-old girl that acts exactly like him, and he can more than take on the fiery red-head that sets flame to his blood while he’s at it.

 

4 ‘Resistance of Steel’ Stars

 

AWWW… How I ADORE these Wellingtons! And damn, did Alyssa put Shane through the ringer! Sexy, emotional, witty with a touch of funny, Conflict is the perfect addiction to this already spectacular Wellington series! 

Shane and Alyssa’s first meeting, first night, was combustive to say the least. Having met in circumstances outside their usual environments, even after just one night, they know the big impact of their insta-connection.   

As if one taste, one feel of her was enough to make me become an addict. It’s one addiction I’ll never try to combat.

But destiny works in the strangest of ways, and learning they aren’t such disconnected strangers after all, and the fact that both work for arch nemesis companies, threw them of their cloud nine. Or at least it did for Alyssa, the woman held on to any reason as lifeline to justify her fears and insecurities. Shane on the other hand, even though not sure what he was truly feeling, but having heard all his life about the Wellington way, was much more open to explore and discover what that insane feeling of connection was. 

“I felt—I still feel—it, too. There’s this crazy invisible force drawing me to you. It should scare me, too, but, Alyssa, it doesn’t.”

The way I feel right now? It’s not infatuation. It’s not lust. It’s more than primal desire or need. It’s her, and I have no words to explain exactly what I’m feeling other than claiming possession of her.

Man, oh man, but Alyssa was the queen of pushing away! I have to confess that HUGE extent of her resistance and unmoving stubbornness, ended up being off putting to the story. One year – and the big majority of the book, to be honest –  of running and pushing away from  Shane was far too much, imo, so much so that her valid initial motives, ended up taking back sit to her pure obstinacy, and its a shame because this story has so many captivating and heart touching scenes, that had the resistance not been taken to this extent, it would have been up there with my fav epic love stories. 

Because let’s be honest.
When you get a taste of decadence, one bite is never enough.

That being said, Shane enchanted me from the start, even with his too cocky attitude, and his single guy persona, we never doubted – even when he said otherwise – the true impact that Alyssa had in just that couple of nights! It was enough for him to NEVER let go and fight and persistantly pursue her for more than one year! Even with all her pushing away and sky high walls of resistance, the man never truly gave up, and knew there was something there worth fighting for, he was the stuff best book boyfriends are made of!!! Swoon! 

Love happens when it happens. That’s what makes it so incredible, that each story is unique and special and its own. There’s magic in serendipity. There’s magic in the slow burn that smolders and sizzles. There’s magic in the in between.”

Another HUGE highlight for me – and I have to say a big contributor for the rating, given how off putting the extent of the pushing away from Alyssa was – was Shane’s brotherly relationship with Brandon. Though cousins, you truly felt their bond as much deeper than blood relation, and you could feel that in all their interactions. So added to it, the extra snippets we got from his and Ari’s incredible courtship and love story, it basically made the book for me.

This extra time and insight we got into their interconnected love stories, that delighted me to no end, sadly wasn’t enough reflected, due once again to Alyssa’s stubbornness, in couple time for the main couple, Shane and Alyssa. Having them apart the big majority of the book stole not only our enjoyment, but the development of their love story, and even with little and sweet Epilogue, left us wanting more of them, Shane and Alyssa – the couple.

Conflict truly fit perfectly with this extraordinary, one of my all time fav series, and there is never enough time to enjoy these Wellington men! And to see how they fall for their destined ones! Sigh… Shane and Alyssa’s was no different, and minus that far too prolongued pushing away, some repetitions and inconsistencies – normal to this stage, that I have no doubt will be fixed upon editing – it was a captivating, heart touching, super sexy, clever and funny love story, that reflected Ms. Teevan’s talented story telling, and left me wishing to see even more of these Wellington (specially more Shane and Alyssa!). Can’t wait to see who of them will fall next!!! <3 <3 <3 <3

Folgers got it wrong.
The best part of waking up is the woman of your dreams in your arms.

I’m never going to push you away. The only thing I want to do for the rest of my life is hold you close. Starting now.”

Be mine for the rest of our lives, because this life is nothing if you’re not by my side.”
