Hold Me

Promise Me #1

by Brea Viragh

Isabel Cook has had a hard time accepting her homecoming. Moving from California back to her hometown of Heartwood, Virginia has her pride squealing in pain. Accompanied by her fianc�, Duncan, she makes the transition just in time for her fifteen-year high school reunion. There she reconnects with her old childhood friend, August McKenney. The reunion is bittersweet, as August reminds her of her past and all the things Isabel tried to leave behind. Now in her mid-thirties, she is transported back to the town of her youth, forced to live in a hotel until the renovations on her house are completed, and hating her job at the country store. August is there to lend his support in any way he can. After all, there's more at stake than mere friendship. They made a promise to each other the year they turned thirteen. If neither one of them is married by thirty-five, then they would give themselves to each other in holy matrimony. Isabel had thought herself safe, never realizing that, even after all this time, August still loves her. And has made it his mission to do everything possible to claim her.

The imagery was beautiful and amazing... the characters were sweet and wonderful.. and some really hott and sexy scenes were in this as well. If you enjoy a good, fast moving and sweet story I highly recommend this one. The ending had a twist that had my head spinning and amazed me.. This story is wonderful and I will be looking forward to more.
