This was a totally unexpected read. Told from three points of view, but only triangularish for a very small part at the start of the book, the added voice of not a love interest added so much and helped develop characters with such depth and friendship.
Sure, there was instalove and all that, but it was almost believable!.

I don't want to say too much and spoil the story for you but it's definitely a must read!

This is a special edition bundle of books 1-3 that I'm releasing for an event in Savannah, GA in July 2023. If you'd like to come hang out with me at the Literary Love Savannah Convention (how does a ghost tour sound? Great, right?) please use my link above to sign up!!
Excerpt-
The instant a breeze from the open door crossed my back, and the light shifted along the wall, I sensed he was behind me. Cigarette-scented air leeched into the space around me, and his palm spread across my low back as his hip slid onto the barstool at the edge of my vision. “A bit early to be drinking, sweetheart.”
My page’s corner flipped down, and I closed my book as I turned to face him. “Got a lot of room to talk.” Since our skin met the night before when he shook my hand, I ached for another dose of his life force, and I leaned in a little closer. “Don’t you think?”

Overall very good read
Plenty of twists and turns. While I did see the ending happening the way it did, there still were some surprises in the story.

After reading the plot I was unsure if this would be my type of book. Well let me tell you, it certainly was! It had sorrows, pain, suspense, smut, and just the right amounts of sprinkles of romance. I fell in love with the characters, even the ones i wasn't sure of in the beginning. There were many twists and turns. I loved the ending. I cant wait to read more from this author.
