After a routine visit to her doctor ended with a prescription for prenatal vitamins, she went home to tell her fiancé the news—only to find him otherwise engaged…with a hot blonde on their kitchen table.Things only got worse when Jasmine arrived at work and had a meet-puke with a very hot, very sexy new arrival to Harper’s Crossing.Leo Taylor was … Crossing.

As a driven girl that always has a plan for everything, will Jasmine see that sometimes the best things in life come when you throw away the map? As a restless guy who’s never been satisfied unless he’s continent-hopping, will Leo discover that love can be biggest adventure of all?
Author’s Note: Just One Touch is a stand-alone Crossroads Bachelorettes surprise pregnancy, small-town romance complete with a swoony HEA and plenty of toe-curling, tingle-inspiring heat and warm-and-fuzzies inducing heart along the way!

Oh, my, whenever I think that the latest book by this duo can’t match the awesomeness of the previous ones, I stand corrected.
Whether you have been a fan of this series, or are new to it, you will fall in love with the characters from the first page to the last.
This story belongs to Jasmine Bell and Leo Taylor.
Jasmine has been living i Crossroads since she was 12 years old, after being in foster homes for 10 long years. That was, until she was taken in by Nan, a woman that showed her love and gave her a permanent home. But even then, she’s felt she wasn’t good enough for someone to truly love her. When she unexpectedly finds out that she is not only pregnant but that her fiance has been cheating on her, her world comes tumbling down. But life goes on and she heads to one of her many jobs.
Leo is in town for a short time. Just enough to help his grandfather, the local veterinarian. Leo has put his life on hold for his dear grandfather, but permanency anywhere is not in his cards. Or is it?
This story will make you laugh, will touch your hearts, and at times make you teary so have your hankies ready.
A reminder that our past does affect our present and future. Will it stop us from moving forward for fear of history repeating itself?
Or , like Nan said to Jasmine, “ Don’t let your past rob you of your future”.
Another winner and one worth your time.
I was entrusted a copy of this book. The opinions expressed are solely my own.
The FINAL Crossroads book couldn’t have been more perfect. I still can’t believe it’s the last one, but was so well written and such a wonderful story. Leo’s newly back in town after temporarily to look after his grandfather’s vet clinic. Jasmine, is one of the vet techs and if you’ve read the other books, also works with Leah and Bea. For Leo, it’s love at first sight, of her picture actually, but it takes him time to wrap his head around it. Jasmine meets Leo on a really crappy day, which is made worse when she throws up on her new boss (Leo). These two are simply drawn together, fated to be, if you will. Leo is so unbelievably supportive and sweet. I absolutely loved these two and loved all the catching up with other crossroad couples. I couldn’t have asked for a more perfect ending to such an amazing series!
I truly enjoyed reading this book!
It’s a feel-good, sexy & moving romance.
Jasmine’s day did not go as planned. Because of it, her whole life has been turned upside down.
Leo, is back in Harbor’s Crossing
to run his grandfather’s vet practice.
He’s normally traveling from place
to place around the world.
But being here, Leo is ready to bail,
that is till he saw Jasmine’s picture.
All Jasmine’s ever wanted is a family
of her own. Settling down was not what
Leo was looking for.
I loved everything about this story!!
This is the ending to a great series. There are lots of cameos from other characters from other books, but I really think if you wanted to read this as a stand-alone that you could. Most of the time I was saying to myself, “poor Jasmine” because I just felt so sorry for her and all of the things that happened to her throughout her life. There is a bit more angst caused by Jasmine near the end that I wanted, but overall it was a great storyline. Dual point of view. No cliffhanger.
