Wild to Love #5
Promise to Love You
Henry Gauthier: Bassist. Gorgeous. My brother’s best friend. And my first love.
He’s also the man I grew to hate after a one-night stand went horribly wrong. I’ve spent the last three years successfully dodging him like a bullet.
Now, fresh out of a bad relationship and living in a new city, I finally feel like I’m starting to get myself together. And when an opportunity to produce Wild Minds’ newest album presents itself, I can’t help but jump at the chance of a lifetime.
Even if it comes with a caveat.
Three weeks in Hawaii, an impossible to meet deadline, and Henry Gauthier.
Eden Dawson: Spitfire. Stunning. My best friend’s sister. And the bane of my existence.
I’ll be the first to admit three years ago I messed up. I shouldn’t have touched her.
Sort of like now. Because my best friend, my bandmate, made me promise that when it comes to his baby sister, I keep my hands to myself.
Only a woman like her is impossible to resist. And before I know it, despite my best efforts, we’re doing all manner of dirty things to each other.
Our rules demand this is only temporary. That no matter what, love is off the table.
Now, I have to make sure two things don’t happen. One, I don’t break my promise to her. Two, her brother doesn’t find out I already broke the one I made to him.

I thought Jasper owned my heart until I read about Gus.
I thought Gus owned my heart until I read about Keith.
I thought there is no way ANYONE could top those three men, regardless of who they were, and then I went ahead and read Henry's story, and I'm here to tell you: HENRY SLAYS ALL OF THEM. THERE I SAID IT. HENRY IS NOW THE OFFICIAL LOVE OF MY LIFE. (sorry husband!)
Look, that warranted all the shouty caps, because holy Christ on a cracker, I LOVE HIM SO MUCH. And even though this is book five and I still didn't know much about him, Henry captured my heart in a way that few have before him. I love him deeply, completely, and his big heart and filthy mouth are just some of the reasons why he is at the tip top of my ultimate book boyfriend list. Seriously, he's self-destructive, sarcastic, slightly unhinged (which just seems to be my type, lol) but he has the BIGGEST heart ever, even though he's determined to keep it under lock and key. He sees the life his bandmates-slash-brothers have, and even though he feels like the odd man out, he doesn't want anything to change. He has himself convinced that all love does is bring horrible destruction and heartbreak to all those involved, and he just wants no part of it. Especially since he witnessed first hand just how devastating love gone wrong can be when he was just a young boy. But now that he's bitten into the forbidden fruit, he wants nothing more to own the woman who's possessed his mind and heart -- even if he won't admit it-- for the past three years. And this purple haired siren sure isn't going to make it easy on him.
As much as I loved Henry, and I do, I have to say that Eden is my spirit animal. She is fiesty, guarded, smart-mouthed, BADASS, and is just a goddess in every sense of the word. She has been in love with Henry her entire life, but he's never seen her the way she's always hoped.. until that one night that changed her heart forever. Now, she's a purple haired, pierced, tattoo siren who is desperately trying to prove herself career wise, and now that the opportunity of a lifetime is presented to her, can she set aside her battered heart, anger & resentment towards Henry in order to achieve her dreams? And will the two of them be able to keep their hands, and hearts, safe from one another?
I barely scratched the surface with this review, but all I can say is that this series will forever be imprinted on my heart. Each couple is so special and unique, and is the very definition of 'all the feels' but Henry and Eden just captivated my entire soul. Their exquisite push and pull, their banter, the HEAT, the heartache, it was all just top notch! And that epilogue?! OH MY GOSH, just absolute perfection!!! I'm so sad to see this amazing series come to an end, but I know it's one that I will revisit time and time again. Please go and read this entire series as soon as you can!! Wild Minds forever!

Henry & Eden... There goes my heart❤
10 Dragonfly Stars⭐
A sensuous & exhilarating Brother's best-friend, Rockstar, Enemies-to-lovers Forced Proximity, Beach Romance With Unrequited love, High angst, kinky hot sex, endearing Banters & Swoons, Heart-ache, Truths, intrigue, Drama, Fun, Breaking Rules, Love & HEA.
This was Everything! Oh my tortured Henry & my spitfire Eden. These two are absolutely combustible together!! Plus, Seeing everyone having the time of their life vacationing on a beach? Absolute delight! DEVOURED this within 8hrs, with only 1 break in b/w! I was devoted😍.
Henry; Wild, Charming, Flirty; is 28 & Keith's Bestie/Bandmate as the bassist of renowned "Wild Minds" bands. Having a bad childhood, his heart is locked tight. Only his friends had a place there... but then the forbidden Eden broke through the walls. With her, we see his aloof & Infuriating side before the Sweet Swoony one!
Eden; Sassy, Hardworking, Assertive; is 22 & Keith's baby sister. Fresh out of a breakup, she's a force & works as producer for Turn Records (Lyric's her boss!), It's Wild Minds' Label but she's hiding it from her brother & avoiding the band until she can prove them that she IS good at this. Funnily, Henry becomes the catalyst to Keith finding out, H+E's two surprise meets now were fun!
The past (Prologue)... Eden has always been in love with him, While Henry saw her as his bestie's sis. 3yrs ago, They had a one-night-stand, starting with unmistakable attraction, a case of mistaken identity & ending with Heartbreak. Since then, she'd avoided him. Until now.
The Present...Its a surprise for the band When they–especially Keith–finds out where she works, but then they give her a job offer! They want their latest album done in 2 & a half month & get a much needed break. For that, she'll have to go with'em on their 3 weeks Hawaii trip. It's a great opportunity so To work together & not arise suspicions, H+E make a truce from their constant nagging😂. & Ignore the underlying Sparks.
~Past & Present, Hide & spot, In Car talks, Bar Fun, Truths & Job, Truce, Bro-code, Band Meeting, Tattoos, Work, Roadside Tacos non date...
Everything changes in Paradise. It was fun to see the gang chilling (+working😉) & beautiful how much Henry+Eden's relation grew here! Resisting eachother is simply impossible, Being neighbors & Secluded. So They agree to have a secret fling. But Spending time together & having wild sex, her feelings for him become stronger...While Henry feels guilt for lying to Keith; When a scary incident happens, it's evident Henry cares so very much about Eden. Him opening up to her was soulful!
~Paradise, neighbors, Swim & Kiss, Just Wild sex, Sorting feelings, Friends' Fun, Making music, Swimming Orgasms, ATV Fun, Sweet help, Snorkeling, The Rescue, Breaking Rules, Feelings grow, Being kinky, The Hike, Stormy past, Maia's advice & Closing time...
They Love & want more... But then trouble comes to paradise. Misunderstanding occurs, Hearts break, a friends' intervention happens (Omfg, They're all so observant!! Keith KNEW!!), Truths found... He'll do everything to win her back, won't give up without a fight, but will she risk her heart a 3rd time with him?
~To talk, Tragedy & illusions, Ex lies, All Truths, Gloomy & The Intervention, Distance & Love, No trust, Banters & work, Fighting for love, Grovel, Taco dreams, Forgiveness, I love yous...
Back home, with friends backing him & The Band still working with Eden, Henry soon thaws her anger. But trusting him again is hard, she wants a sign. & Boy, Henry gives her that! Making one of her dream come true! *Swoon* That ending & epilogue were Gorgeous! #HEA
I loved this story, though I'm sad the series is over, This was the way to go, guys! I do hope we get a Bonus though😉.
P.s. I adored her roomie! How is it possible that I'm so attached to this band Having only read Keith & now Henry's Book? But omg, I'll miss them! Great thing that I still have the previous 3 books to read to re-visit them! And maybe a 2nd generation series will come...? As there are so many kids (some new ones too!) here!

Promise to love you is a book full of heartache and hope!
Henry and Eden are taboo in the most delicious ways! He’s a broken man and her brothers best friend but no one has ever made her feel the way he does! After years of harboring hate Eden and Henry are forced together and they can no longer deny or hold their desire for one another at bay!
When truths are revealed can Henry trust Eden to hold his heart and will Eden allow Henry in her life for more than a fling?
Henry and Edens story tore me apart piece by piece but J Saman did a remarkable job that when she puts you back together you’re better than before! Yes the storyline sounds like the usual brothers best friend but this story, their journey is so much more than that! The originality of the characters backstory’s and their bond is what makes this group so addicting! Each time I feel I know what’s happening I’m shocked into silence and fall more and more I love with Saman’s writing!
Take a chance on this heartbreakingly beautiful couple because they are worth it and you will become just as addicted as I am!

I LOVE the Wild Minds series and each of the couples are amazing, but Henry and Eden take the cake for being my absolute favorites in the series.
Henry is the bassist for Wild Minds, he doesn’t date or really even do relationships. Throughout the series he is kind of the quiet one, we never really learned a whole lot about him but he sure does shine and you can’t help but instantly fall in love with him. I LOVED Eden. She is full of fire and passion when it comes to producing music and of course, tacos. She is determined to make a name for herself without using her older brother, Keith’s fame. Eden has had a crush on Henry for as long as she can remember, he is her brother’s best friend and she grew up around him, but she never thought she would have a chance with him. Until one night at a club and it was perfect, until he found out who she was.
The chemistry between Henry and Eden is off the charges. The tension that is brewing between them is addictive and when they are together, well make sure you have a fan handy because you will need it many many many times! These two are so perfect for each other and I love that neither one of them tries to change the other, they accept each other for who they are, imperfections and all.
I am so sad to see this series coming to an end because I have fallen in love with Jasper, Gus, Keith and Henry and I’m just not ready to say good bye to them. Each of their stories is different but will hit you in an unexpected way.
If you’re looking for a brother’s best friend, Rockstar romance this is one to check out!

I read this story with a mix of excitement and trepidation, because it’s the very last book in a series I absolutely adore.
I read the first book with Lyric and Ethan so long ago that it feels like the Wild Minds and their people are family.
Henry and Eden’s story fit perfectly into that dynamic. It’s about finding your true mate, the only person who can complete you when the mere idea of love is all wrong.
I just wanted to grab Henry in a hug to make everything okay for him, and Eden was just so flipping cool. With blue or purple hair, she takes on an intimidating career, gets scared, works her ass off, and ultimately kills it.
Oh, and she gets the guy. I really loved her.
Did I mention this book is steamy? Because oh heck, is it. No one writes those kind of scenes like Saman. The swimming pool? The hidden nook? I'm still blushing now.
I’m forever sad that the series is over, but I loved how it ended. Five stars for every book, and a huge high five to one heck of an author.

A steamy, scorching hot and angsty ending to the Wild to Love series.
What you need to know about “Promise to Love You”:
✔ Enemies to Lovers
✔ Dual Point of View
✔ Rockstar Romance
✔ Eden Dawson, 22, Keith Dawson’s baby sister, record producer
✔ Henry Gauthier, 28, bass player for Wild Minds, Keith Dawson’s best friend
✔ Forbidden Love
✔ Can be read as a Complete Standalone
✔ Wild to Love #5
World famous band Wild Minds are set to record an album while vacationing on a Hawaiian island and they offer the producing gig to their drummer, Keith’s, baby sister, Eden. Eden has just started working as an associate producer at Turn Records and this will be a huge deal for her. Henry Gauthier, their bass player and Eden shared a forbidden encounter three years prior and Henry’s reaction to it destroyed Eden’s childhood crush on him and left her hating him but she is still attracted to him.
Keith warns Henry, his best friend, to stay away from Eden because he knows that Henry has no intention of ever falling in love. Henry is drawn to Eden however despite Keith’s warnings and his own frustrated attempts to stay away from her. You’re left wondering what happened to Henry to make him this way? Thank goodness the pacing of this book is perfect because you’re just drawn along until you’ve disappeared into the book altogether.
While Henry and Eden are on the island their chemistry and proximity are too powerful to resist any longer and they can’t stay away from each other.
Behind Henry’s glib smiles and easygoing ways he’s unbelievably tortured by his past and Eden is just the woman to see through the defences he throws up.
“I never felt alive until Eden Dawson walked into my life and destroyed it.” - Henry
Their love is at first forbidden then all-encompassing. Eden is fiery, sweet and wild and everything Henry needs to beat back his demons. Henry is the strong man Eden has always loved but is he finally ready to love her in the way she deserves? Can they overcome what life throws at them? Can they get through to each other?
I absolutely loved Henry and Eden’s love story. The experiences Henry went through absolutely slayed me. Eden is such a great character in her vulnerability, strength and fierceness. I admired how J. Saman had their story play out, it was absolutely beautiful. The angst was earned and well delivered although it destroyed my heart for a time. Promise to Love You was such a brilliant send off to a great series. All the characters were really given their fair share of time to shine in this book but not take away from the main story. It was a lovely goodbye to Wild Minds.

First of all, my apologies to the six books I skipped over and the daily responsibilities I shirked to dig into this book the moment it hit my kindle. I’ve been dying to read Henry's story, and holy wow, does this one ever deliver! But this book in the Wild to Love series is bittersweet. It’s the end of this amazing book world, and I can’t believe we won’t have any more time with these unforgettable characters.
Henry Gauthier is probably the toughest of the guys in the band when it comes to love. His upbringing and examples of love growing up weren’t the best, and it's affected his philosophy of love as an adult. Then along comes Eden Dawson. His band mate's little sister.
Eden may be off limits to Henry, but she's like a siren’s call to him. Too bad their past is tainted by an intimate moment gone wrong and Eden now harbors nothing but hate and animosity towards Henry. However, Eden has the chance to produce Wild Mind's next album, so she and Henry will just have to deal. And did I mention that a large part of the record production will be in a secluded, romantic, locale?
Hold on to your hat, reader friend, because this is one bumpy, twisty, complicated ride. The hate and love, the highs and lows, and the push and pull make this a delicious, exquisite, satisfying read as Henry and Eden fight for their forever. It's a difficult road and a heartbreaking read, at times, but it's so, so worth it!
This group of rock stars and their ladies have a special place in my heart. They were part of my initiation into rock star romance, and they're so beautifully flawed, authentic, and loveable, it’s no wonder they own me. While I’m sad that this is the end of an era, the life I’ve lived and the experiences I had in these pages will live on in my heart. Rock star romance fan or not, these amazing characters will give you one of the very best romance reads of your life, so don’t pass this one up!
Henry Gauthier is probably the toughest of the guys in the band when it comes to love. His upbringing and examples of love growing up weren’t the best, and it's affected his philosophy of love as an adult. Then along comes Eden Dawson. His band mate's little sister.
Eden may be off limits to Henry, but she's like a siren’s call to him. Too bad their past is tainted by an intimate moment gone wrong and Eden now harbors nothing but hate and animosity towards Henry. However, Eden has the chance to produce Wild Mind's next album, so she and Henry will just have to deal. And did I mention that a large part of the record production will be in a secluded, romantic, locale?
Hold on to your hat, reader friend, because this is one bumpy, twisty, complicated ride. The hate and love, the highs and lows, and the push and pull make this a delicious, exquisite, satisfying read as Henry and Eden fight for their forever. It's a difficult road and a heartbreaking read, at times, but it's so, so worth it!

I absolutely love Eden. She is feisty, fiery and genuine and tried not to let anything being her down. Henry was so much more then I thought and to learn about his past hurt my heart but these two together are utterly perfect, she was exactly what he needed to heal
April 30, 2021
I have been waiting with bated breath for Henry and Eden's story...and WOW! It does not disappoint! They are pure fire together! From the moment we meet them, they just sizzle with passion and fire! I fell so hard for these two, and I loved everything about their story. The heat, the heart...everything about Henry and Eden sucked me in, and I just couldn't put this book down! Eden is so fiery, and I just loved her! What a badass! Henry's past that he overcomes is so heart-wrenching, I had tears in my eyes! This book has me all up in my feels!
We get all of our favorites in this book, and I love seeing the band all together one last time.
I'm so sad this is the last Wild Minds book -- I have absolutely fallen in love with these characters, and am not ready to say goodbye...I had tears in my eyes finishing this book!
Bravo to J for creating the Wild Minds world -- it's one of my favorites, and one I won't soon forget!

Eden knows that the day is coming when she'll have to be face to face with the biggest, most upsetting mistake of her life. She's taken a job producing for his band, but the last person she wants to be in the same room with is Henry Gauthier - her one night gone wrong and her brother's best friend and bandmate. But their attraction and close proximity will have them indulging, in a fling only, though, because Henry does not do love or relationships. Will either of them survive their fling with heart intact?
Henry promised Eden's brother he'd never touch her. When he broke his promise, he said he'd never break it again. But now she's finally in front of him years after he broke his promise. Will he be able to keep his promise again? One thing he does know is love isn't in the picture, even with the gorgeous, sassy Eden.
I'm really sad that this is the last rockstar love story for the Wild Minds guys, but if the series had to end, the author definitely saved the best story and the best couple, for last. Eden and Henry sizzled whenever they were in the same room together, whether they were taking jabs at each other or all over each other. As each page passed, I fell more in love with them and was rooting for them, just waiting for Henry to get his shit together and admit how he felt, be the man he was deep inside, the man Eden deserved. I loved them together, loved their story and will miss all of them.

This book put me through the emotional wringer! I knew this would would probably be the last of the series, and I’ve come to love these characters and their families, but it was bittersweet to come to the end.
Henry was probably the least written about guy throughout this series until now. Not much was known about him and he was mostly on the periphery. He was just there. Once I started reading this book, I became hooked as I always do when reading J. Seaman’s books, and I was desperate to find out what had happened in his past. I knew it was bad, but not how bad, for him to be and think how he was.
There were the obvious moments where I was incredulous at his words and actions to Eden. But then when more of his past was revealed, I just wanted to reach into my screen and give him a hug! His story completely shattered my heart! By the end, I was head over heels for him!
Eden was amazing! Despite all the heartbreak, especially the one in the nightclub, she didn’t let it stop her. She kept believing in love. There was a line about that she told Henry that showed how strong she truly was. I loved that she found herself and realized who she wanted to be.
The chemistry between Eden and Henry was playful at times, but intense at others. My eyes were glued to my kindle! There were so many amazing quotes in this book that a goo chunk of it is highlighted. There were quite a few things on this one that made me nostalgic about the previous books, so I’ll be going back and reading the whole series. And I’m sure it won’t be the last time!

Words can’t express how much I truly loved everything about Henry and Eden’s story. The depths of emotions I felt while reading it just proves how incredible this author is. Throughout this entire series I had hoped Henry would get his own story, and what a story it is. He doesn’t believe in love or relationships, he is completely closed off. But one night he meets up with someone and for some reason he felt a connection but didn’t know why. Years later, he finds out why and he doesn’t know how to handle it. Eden comes into his life like a whirlwind, but being she’s his best friends sister, makes it all the more difficult.
Eden is a complete breath of fresh air. She is such an endearing and likable character. While she may be young, she knows what she wants out of her life both personally and professionally. She in no uncertain terms wants Henry, but he had told her so many times that it can’t happen. Can Eden change his mind? Can she show him that his past shouldn’t determine his future. Henry has his reasons for being the way he is, but he is also loyal to his friends and family and doesn’t want to risk hurting anyone, least of all Eden. Will Henry change his ways? Is Eden the one to break thru his barriers?
Henry and Eden have most definitely worked their way into my very heart and soul. As you read, prepare yourself to laugh, to cry, to feel the lust and the love between two incredible characters. While I’m saddened that this is the last book in this phenomenal series, it is most definitely the perfect ending. My heart is just so full right now.

While no other Wild Minds man will ever top Jasper for me, Henry came very, very close. I wasn’t expecting to love him as much as I did.
Eden has been crushing on her brothers best friend Henry for years so when the opportunity to take things further presents itself, Eden is all in....until it comes crashing down on her and she ends up spending the next three years avoiding Henry like the plague. She’s not the same girl she was anymore, she’s had three years to grow and mature and find herself but is she really prepared to spend three weeks on vacation with the man that has the power to break her heart, all for the sake of her work? I really liked Eden. There’s something that’s really likeable about her right from the start but the slightly older, wiser Eden is pretty much impossible not to love.
Henry made a mistake three years ago (IMO he made a few) when he took things further than one should with their best friends sister but he made a promise and he’s tried to keep it. He’s not ready for this new Eden and he’s definitely not ready to spend his vacation with her. The chemistry is still there between them even after so long and been confined on an island with their friends means they’re going to have to find a way to be ok been around each other. It’s not long before things start getting even more complicated between them but it’s ok, it’s only for three weeks, what could go wrong....right?
I loved this book. It’s got everything I love in my books and I can’t recommend it (or the other books in this series) enough.

Wow! Eden and Henry! Super swooning happening here!
I read one other story by this author in this series and I loved the crap out of that one I just had to read this one too. And now... I have to read the rest. Can’t wait for all their stories!
Ok so I went off there...
Eden has been pining after her big brothers best friend and band mate for as long as she can remember. She’s had it in for him badly. So when she’s at a club with blue hair dancing away he comes up to her and they get it on in the wall if the dance floor. Finally he SEES her! Well he doesn’t. He doesn’t know who she is.
Now finally working for the huge record label her brothers band is signed with she gets the chance to produce her brothers next album. One ick. She needs to see Henry... bleh.
These two have so much chemistry! It’s off the charts! They are amazing together until a twist and all goes to crap. He needs to find her and make her believe she’s it for him!
LOVE IT!!

I love Henry’s story!
After so many years of closing himself off from love after having a traumatic childhood, he finally gives in to the one person he shouldn’t have Eden. His best friend's younger sister.
Eden has always had a crush on Henry and after one night she had, she vows to let go of the crush because she knew she will be hurt in the end.
Testing the waters they go in full steam ahead, secretly of course. Never expecting what’s to come, Henry is hit with reality. The reality he has fallen in love.
This story is full of emotional moments and the brotherhood that is Wild Minds. The chemistry between Henry and Eden is 🔥🔥🔥.

After every book I've read by this author, I always think: Well that's it, it's not going to get any better. And then I imagine J Saman saying something like "Hold my wine" and proves me wrong. Time and again she delivers wonderful characters, scorching hot romance and the best dialogue, and this was no exception. I love that each book in the series told a unique story and Henry's book drew me in from the first page. It started with a bang (sorry, couldn't resist) and just kept building from there. There were times I wanted to smack both Henry and Eden over the head with my Kindle for being so stubborn to what was right in front of them, but the ending made it all worth while. A beautifully emotional and yes I'll say it again because it bears repeating scorchingly hot read.

I was dying to see how this story was going to play out after that sneak peek and how it went sooooo bad so fast.
This one has all the things broken broody rockstar with a tragic back story, brother best friend, second chances and enemies to lovers vibe.
If you read the sneak peek you know this one gets HOT quick! Like send the babies to bed HOT! yowza I love these two together and even when they are hating each other the chemistry is sizzling. Henry is so determined that he is not made to love that he doesn't see it sneak up on him. He's going to legit mess everything up and have to have some hard talk and let some secrets out on his way to win his girl.
I love how hard he comes out fighting when he gets his head straight about his feelings and and that Eden doesn't just run into his arms. She struggles with what to do, you just wait and see what the grand gesture is and it will hit all the swoons and they get their HEA.

I absolutely LOVED this book! After stories about Jasper, Gus and Keith, I couldn't wait to see how Henry's story would compare and I have to say this one is my favorite of the series. I already love the tropes of secret crush/forbidden love/sibling's best friend, and Henry's story covers all three, but it doesn't feel like it's doing the most. Learning more about Henry, we get to see why he seems to be so anti-love, since he had a front row seat to how love can be devastating and he's pretty determined to not go down that path. But you know what they say about the best laid plans.

Even more, I loved Eden. I love her friendship with the other characters and her relationship with her brother Keith is great.
And there is a ton of chemistry between Eden and Henry....but...
I didn't care for the wishy washy back and forth of their relationship. I especially hated their first run in. I know our past can make us act differently in our future, but leaning so heavily on old ideals is so unhealthy and it was just not as joyful to read their romance because of the issues.
Hoopla listen 🎶

My heart felt like an apple and Eden and Henry wormed in and settled in.
I'm a sucker for an imperfect man. Henry is not an easy man to fall for but I tripped over him. Love getting to spend my time in a wild rockstar romance where like a chart topping song all these characters get stuck in your head. They know how to get a reaction out of the reader that's for sure.

Henry & Eden’s story was everything! I was captivated from the first page to the last.
Eden & Henry have a past and had a moment. Eden is no longer just Keith’s little sister to Henry anymore. Three years later, they were brought back together. And neither were prepared for fireworks!
I am sad that’s this series is ending. I enjoyed meeting these characters and visiting their world. I look forward to new adventures that J. Saman takes me on in the futures.

Eden grew up hanging around her big brothers band, Wild Minds. She's also considered the forbidden fruit, since she's Keith Dawson's baby sister. But, that didn't stop her from secretly crushing on the sexy bassist, Henry Gauthier. Unfortunately, he didn't even know she existed. Until one night of mistaken identity changes their lives forever! Promise to Love You is the bittersweet ending to the Wild to Love series, but I think Ms. Saman saved the best for last!

This is so good! It feels so good to revisit the Wild Minds and I enjoyed their appearances.
Henry and Eden's story pulled me right in. I loved their chemistry but I ached for these two. I just kept on waiting for them to finally just be together. I was rooting for Eden the whole time. The constant rejection and the walls put up by Henry definitely put her and me on an emotional wringer. J. Saman definitely saved the best for last as these two is amazing. I'm sad to see this series is ending.

Ms. Saman can certainly write the feels all of them and so darn well! I laughed, cried, swooned, cringed, smiled, tingled.
I love a sibling off limits story, and this one, just OMG!!! Wait until you read it!
Henry definitely has some pretty tall walls, and this reader was rooting for Eden to have great climbing gear!
Fantastic; I Loved It!

Henry and Eden's Story . . .
Eden Dawson and Henry Gauthier had a one-night-stand which did not go well. Eden was his best friend Keith’s little sister, so was supposed to be off-limits. Now they are coming back together after 3 years due to their careers where Eden has an opportunity to produce Wild Mind’s next album in Hawaii. That means she will be working directly with Henry. But neither expected that the sizzling chemistry was still there under all that anger!
Has Henry’s tainted attitude about love changed? Or has it always been different since Eden? Will they try to get it right this time? Because neither one ever really gave up.

Henry and Eden are the most amazing couple. They just get each other! I so love Henry and so many times wanted to smack him for thinking he couldn't love or be loved. He really is the sweetest guy (well except in bed....not that I would complain lol). The chemistry between Henry and Eden is off the charts, even they couldn't deny it. Being in Hawaii for 3 weeks was the best thing for these two. They were bound to combust at some point being so close to each oterh. Eden really does show Henry, he is worth more. She is able to get him to see past being a brother (doesn't matter by blood or not) and the fun loving uncle. Her love is the strength he needs to see himself, thus letting him open his heart to true love. Their story is true perfection. I am devastated though that this group of books is done. I'm going to miss the guys!

Eden Dawson is off limits, and he knew that three years ago when he went against everything he promised her brother, and shared a secret night with her anyway. And everyday since that night he has thought of her and all the ways he screwed it up. She has kept her distance from him since that night and he believes that she has every right to steer clear of him, but the distance between them is about to get a whole lot smaller.
With her agreeing to help produce Wild Mind's next album that means that they will be working alongside one another, and that also means he has to be on his best behavior and keep his hands to himself. It's going to be pure torture... but he can handle it right?
Promise to Love You is a forbidden love story that comes brimming with everything necessary to leave your heart strings feeling a nice little tug. These two weren't supposed to want one another, a relationship between them would go against everything they'd promised and held true. But they went and did it anyway. The attraction was just too great to ignore, one look and they were both gone. They knew it could backfire on them, but they had a plan in place, a temporary no strings plan. Their hearts however, had another plan!
This was another stellar addition to the series, it had emotional depth, white hot passion, and two characters that were so easy to fall for. The moment I met them I knew their story was going to wreck me, and it did, in the best possible way ever. Theirs's wasn't an easy fall, as they had a lot of emotional baggage to sort out, but they did it together, and it eventually worked out the way that it should. If you like rock star romances then I highly suggest you take a chance on this series, it's characters are will steal you heart and take you on a journey you won't soon forget!

Henry and Eden have instant chemistry but think they shouldn’t be together as she is the youngest sister of Henry’s best friend. Three years later, they find themselves on vacation in Hawaii with the band family. Oh yeah, Eden is there as the producer of the album the band is working on recording. Being the only singles on the trip, they have houses next to each other and share a pool between the houses. Now that they’re in such close proximity, they can no longer deny their attraction.
So many emotions and feelings in this story — angst, hate, animosity, and love just to name a few. The hate fighting and banter between Eden and Henry will grab your attention and make you laugh one minute and sigh the next. Henry seems so afraid of love and of Keith finding out he touched his baby sis. Once you think they’re about ready to admit their true feelings, the unthinkable happens and throws your emotions into a tailspin.
I couldn’t help but cheer for this couple as they make a great team! Henry says he can never love someone yet he does nothing but show love in the way he treats Eden. He is always supporting her, encouraging her, and taking care of her. Eden is smart, talented, and beautiful, she tries not to fall in love with Henry but fails. Can she get the courage to ask him for what she wants? Major miscommunication when tragedy strikes and Henry is in trouble. He does many sweet and romantic things in an attempt to win Eden’s heart. Will he be able to?
The story is written from the dual point of view and we get a lot of details that make you feel like you’re right there a part of the book. This is the first book by J. Saman that I have read and I became hooked right away. I enjoyed the author’s end of book note, talking about inspiration for this story and who a character is based on. Now that I’ve read this, I will go back and read the previous four books in this series.

He is always supporting her, encouraging her, and taking care of her. Eden is smart, talented, and beautiful, she tries not to fall in love with Henry but fails. Can she get the courage to ask him for what she wants? Major miscommunication when tragedy strikes and Henry is in trouble. He does many sweet and romantic things in an attempt to win Eden’s heart. Will he be able to?
The story is written from the dual point of view and we get a lot of details that make you feel like you’re right there a part of the book. This is the first book by J. Saman that I have read and I became hooked right away. I enjoyed the author’s end of book note, talking about inspiration for this story and who a character is based on. Now that I’ve read this, I will go back and read the previous four books in this series.
I received a complimentary copy of this book and am voluntarily giving an honest review
