“Avery?” I gazed up at her with a familiar sense of excitement and confusion. “You want me to protect you?” That was the last thing I’d expected her to say. She sighed. “I just want my life back.” She stared down at me with big, wet eyes. “I’m tired of my world being trashed, Caleb.” She sniffed. “And I’m tired of being scared.” The exhaustion in her voice ripped my heart apart. I stepped up to … heart apart. I stepped up to the bar and reached up to wrap my hand around her leg. “Come here.”
With a sigh, her hands fell to her sides, and Avery lowered herself onto the bar, resting her lithe arms on my shoulders. The moment I wrapped my strong arms around her, I felt her body shudder with the force of her silent tears. “Okay,” I said softly. “I’ll stay.”
From the moment I made that promise, until the last customer was out the door early the next morning, I thought only about keeping my vow to her.

In this installment of the Whisper Cove series, we have Abby and Caleb’s story. I have to say, I liked their story the most, by far. Both are damaged psychologically, one from war and one from a cult, and their love for each other make them strong enough to finally start to deal with their past.
When seventeen year old Caleb found sixteen year old Abby searching through the dumpsters behind Harry’s Bar one night, he never thought that years later he would wind up with her. Through the years they each fantasized about it, but neither got up the nerve to act on their desires. They were each too damaged, and they didn’t want to bring the other into the mess that was their lives.
But when a string of terrifying vandalisms takes place at Harry’s Bar, now owned by Abby, Caleb swears to protect her. Setting up cameras throughout the restaurant, plus the hidden one, still doesn’t catch the madman bent on returning Abby to her hometown, and when she goes missing, Caleb jumps into action. With the help of their friends, Caleb needs to find and save Abby before the madman takes his revenge on her running away from the cult.
This book is full of action, romance, and the passion that Allison LaFleur and Beneva Clark are known for. This series does not need to be read in order, but with it being in KU, why wouldn’t you? I can’t wait to start on the next book!!

A wonderful well written intense story. This suspensful stoyline had me engaged throughout. It has drama, lots of twists and turns, threats, vandalism, and at times emotional. The characters both come frome troubled pasts that they end up facing together that ignites the attraction and chemistry that they tried to ignore. This enjoyable standalone is part of a series with cameos from previous characters in a town that is like a family. I voluntarily reviewed this ARC.

I received this book as an advanced copy & am choosing to review it voluntarily.
This book was gripping, well written & the chemistry between the characters sizzled throughout this sexy read.
Well done Allison. I look forward to more!
This is a new author to me and so I haven’t read any of the previous books in this series. This plot has 2 injured souls who are drawn together, the separate only to find themselves drawn back together after a few years. Avery needs help and Caleb is going to help her, the romance is a slow burn one as they both allow their own history to be a wedge between them. The story has lots of twists, drama and emotions that make this a page-turner. I spent a lovely couple of hours reading this book cover to cover.

They both have their past lives that they are living with, both nightmares. They don’t tell each other about the nightmares they are living with. They fall into each others arms and are starting a life together, but the nightmares become an everyday thing and together they fight them. An interesting story with a good ending.

Caleb and Avery both come from troubled pasts. He growing up with a drunken father and having to work to pay the rent. Avery ran away from something really bad, but it isn’t revealed what until later in the book. They both end up working at a bar in Whisper Cove, ME and the owner leaves it to her in his will. Caleb makes out well financially on investments after spending years in the military, so he doesn’t need Harry’s bar. But that doesn’t stop him from hanging out there. He spends even more time after Avery starts getting threats and vandalism and they fall into a relationship together. I thought she brushed off the threats too quickly when she knew the crazy they were probably from. She shouldn’t have fought Caleb on installing security cameras. His moments of post traumatic stress are upsetting and do disrupt the story flow at times. There were several intense moments in this book as their pasts catch up with them.
This poignant story will leave you breathless. It touches on issues that are disturbing and reflects on how society views them. Caleb and Avery comes from dysfunctional homes. He meets Avery dumpster diving and their relationship takes off from here. Years down the roads brings them back together after Caleb comes home from the military scarred from battle. Avery now owns the bar she worked in and Caleb is a constant visitor. Someone is vandalizing the bar and Caleb takes matter in his own hand. When their past comes front and center, will he be able to keep her safe? I voluntarily agreed to receive an ARC of this book for an honest review.
This was a well written book with interesting characters that have a connection with chemistry between them. The storyline had some gaps at times but overall it kept me interested till the end.

I really enjoyed this new “Whisper Cove” story! It’s well written with some wonderful characters. I love Avery and Caleb! Both have suffered in their past and are drawn to each other. They are so perfect for each other. This is a touching and suspenseful story. I really love this small town and the dynamics of the people there.
I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review. The third book in the Wisper Cove series. I like how each of these book are named after an area in the town, this one is Shipwreck Road. i will be read the first two books in this series. Avery and Caleb’s story had me turning pages I had to know what was going to happen. That was one sick Pastor.This is a beautiful, well written story.I recommend.
This is a very emotional story with Avery and Caleb who have both had some terrible things happen to them in the past and maybe that’s one reason they seem drawn together. They are not looking for a relationship and maybe don’t even know how that works but they can’t deny they have something between them.

Avery and Caleb both had truly tragic backgrounds to deal with which made it difficult for them to trust or develop relationships with others. The story was very interesting with some extremely impressive characters. I hope Becca and Logan are featured in book four. Excellent read!
