5 Stars
Travis Hale has it all. An important role as the sheriff of
the idyllic town of Pelion, Maine. Looks that regularly and consistently make
women fall at his feet. Two nephews and a niece he adores, and a family who’s
mostly forgiven him after a series of unfortunate decisions years before.
Perhaps his past is riddled with regrets and misguided choices, but his future
looks bright and limitless.
Until the new guy in town crosses him in a way both shocking
and indefensible.
A guy who, as it turns out, has a sister who may be equally
as disastrous to Travis’s well-ordered plans, though in an altogether different
manner. Not that there’s any real risk of him falling for the smoothie-making,
birdseed-eating wild woman. She’s not even his type. A plant lady from
California with a head of unruly curls and an equally messy past. More than
that, she’s only in town for the summer, busy mooning over perfect-in-every-way
Gage Buchanan.
And if Travis knows anything, it’s that he refuses to be
second best. Ever again.
Haven Torres’s life fell apart. Or more to the point, it
burned to the ground. At the time, it seemed like a solid idea to jump in her
car, her brother a mostly-willing co-pilot, and embark on a cross-country
adventure.
When they land jobs at an exclusive tennis and golf club in a
picturesque lake town in Maine, Haven’s hopeful it might prove a summer to
remember. Especially if she can catch the attention of the most eligible
bachelor in town and her current crush. Even the kindest, most upstanding, perfect
of men aren’t opposed to summer flings, right?
But when she meets the local sheriff—all swagger and arrogance—and learns of
her brother’s scandalous misdeed, she knows that Pelion is just another
town where their stay is best . . . short-lived. Still, she and Travis strike
up an unlikely friendship and Haven sees that the gorgeous lawman isn’t only
easy on the eyes, but he has . . . layers. Not that she’s going to peel any of
them. He’s only her friend. A friend willing to scratch her back, if she scratches
his.
It seems
simple enough. She’ll help him make her brother sweat a little. And he’ll help
her win over Gage. But before either Travis or Haven knows it, simple turns
complicated, friendship gets flipped on its ear, passion faces down perfection,
and they both discover that sometimes you have to lose it all to find exactly
what you need.
WHAT WILL HAPPEN TO HAVEN & TRAVIS?
WILL THERE BE A HEA?
READ THE BOOK TO FIND OUT ☺
You'd think that you would hate Travis - even as his own hero in his own book. But nope!
We remembered what he did in Archer's book. But we also know that he got a bit better towards the end.
