Everything changes. Even the things we didn’t ask for. Jake, Archie, Coop, and Ian were my best friends and three of them still are and they’re also now my lovers, my boyfriends, and pretty much the anchors keeping me from getting washed away. I’ve had great moments and I’ve had horrible ones. One thing is for sure, I’ll never forget my senior year.It’s the year everything changed. It’s the year … changed.
It’s the year I found them. I lost one and now he wants me back, but I have no idea how to trust him again.
I wish… I wish for a lot of things, but with Halloween right around the corner and the holidays coming, I gotta stay focused on the future even if part of me is still trapped in a night I can’t remember.
*Please note this is a reverse harem and the author suggests you always read the forward in her books. Contains some bullying elements, mature situations, and is recommended for 17+. This is the fourth in a series and the story will continue through future books.

This series is getting intense. Frankie has a lot of healing to do and I think everyone can agree that she needs a break. Ian needs to grovel and pray she lets him back into her life as on of her boyfriends and I hope that happens sooner rather than later because he is causing Frankie unneeded stress. I do love that Frankie and her guys are there for each other through thick and thin regardless of what is going on in their relationship. This book is a rollercoaster but one of the highs was definitely Rachel. I love her so much because she is so caring and thoughtful towards Frankie and she isn’t pushy which is a huge win. I can’t wait for the next book.
Whispers and Wishes (Untouchable Book 4) Kindle Edition
by Heather Long
Thanks to Heather Long and the publisher for the complimentary review copy. I am choosing to leave a fair and honest review.
We return to a post-Homecoming world for Frankie and her boys. It is important to note that these books need to be read in order, and they are so worth the time to start at the beginning. Stop now if you haven’t read the other two books. Seriously, cover your eyes if you are just starting this series.
Frankie and the boys are home from the hospital. The boys want nothing more than to protect her from her Mother, Mitch, Sharon or anyone who is poised to hurt her. She wants nothing more than to return to normal. She and they need to fight her inner demons and her very human ones as well.
Heather Long creates sexual and emotional tension between the characters that keeps the pages turning almost on their own. Each of the male characters, the reverse harem, fits and the busts the stereotypes of romance heroes. Frankie is nearly walks off the page, she is so real. There is no one trope that this set of character.
The love and the sex scenes (in this series there are love scenes that don’t turn into sex) were hot and also very real. My poor kindle almost caught fre.
I never want to go back to high school, unless I could go with Frankie and her men.

What a rollercoaster of emotions. I just love Frankie and the guys. They have such a deep connection and yet their characters are quite diverse. Somehow their characters just complement each other. Rachel has proven to be a true friend to Frankie as well. There are some pretty dark and mean spirited characters thrown in as well. It has kept me wondering when they would show up next to cause trouble. This story ends with a rather shocking cliffhanger caused by one of these troublemakers. I can’t wait to see how this storyline with all its twists and turns finally turns out. Either way I’m routing for Frankie and her guys happy ending. They deserve it after what they’ve been through
I think this may be my favorite book, so far, in the series. Frankie is dealing with what happened in book 3, trying to separate from her mom, and settling into her relationships with the guys. Ian is trying to prove himself. I like that they talk about how his actions impacted her and she is able to talk about her feelings. Also, I have to say, I love Rachel! She is an awesome BFF, fierce and a little evil :). The ending is quite killer though…how am I going to wait until October?
I really feel like Frankie has suffered enough. I just love her so much and have so many feelings for her. The ending just about gave me a heart attack. Ian is really stepping up his game and trying to prove his love for her is real . She is still struggling with what happened at prom and with Mitch. Cheryl is a *itch, I wasn’t sure before but am absolutely positive now. This story just draws you in and doesn’t let go. It will bring you tears and make you smile at the same time. Truly all of the guys are becoming a better person through caring for Frankie.
Had to continue on in this which it did not take long to get right into it. We continue on with Frankie with now we see if time does heal. Wow will back up a minute do not just jump into this one without the other ones before or you could get lost. Especially when this author has us doing the twists and turns. Talk about tests Frankie will get that in spades. Lets not forget her best friends and loves whom are a big part of this. Parents present their pains also and how they can muck things up. Oh and in line with this year out here this one in here has just begun the journey of a Senior.
This book starts where we left off in the last one, so if you haven’t read the others yet, stop now and go read them in order.
Frankie has a week off from school with a doctor’s note. The guys however had to go in but they weren’t going to leave her alone. Not with her hand in a splint and in pain from all the cuts and bruises. Archie stayed this first day, have I mentioned how much I love him and his butler/guardian Jeremy?
We get to see Ian and Jake’s anger management session with the student advocate/counselor Dr. Diane Miller. She is aware of what happened at Homecoming and I think she actually makes some headway in steering them towards the right direction. However there are many others that just want to push the buttons to see what happens. Sharon is one of those people as she keeps trying to corner Ian, fortunately Rachel is there to do something when neither Ian or Coop can. Oopsy…
Something a bit unique to this book is that we get more from the guys point of view. I really liked knowing what they’re thinking as their story progresses. This is particularly helpful when it comes to Ian. Ian stopped Mitch from doing any more harm to Frankie that fateful night. Yet he is in the friend zone with Frankie, he wants to be more but he definitely has to earn her trust. That is not going to be easy. She still loves him but trust is essential to her and he’s broken it.
The guys are formidable when it comes to protecting Frankie, she’s their number one priority, they all love her and it shows. We get to see not only the days she has one on one with Archie, Jake and Coop, but also the nights which also include Ian. She’s plagued by nightmares and they’ve found a way to chase them when they start.
She’s also started the emancipation procedure through one of Archie’s lawyers, Mr. Wittaker. Obviously Frankie has a lot going on, both physically and mentally but her mother showing up at the school her first day back really takes the case.
This of course opens a new can of worms for both Frankie and Archie. Did I mention I really like the lawyer?
We also get to meet Archie’s grandfather, he’s so unlike Archie’s Dad and he likes Frankie too. We see more of Coop’s sister, in this book. Rachel is as always the snarky supportive friend, and Sharon is…Sharon.
Frankie isn’t taking any crap from anyone and neither are the guys. We get answers and more questions as we reach the conclusion of the OMG book.
I can’t wait for the next book. Please write faster Heather LOL.
If you haven’t read the previous three books – and the author is very clear about this – you will not get the full effect of this story. I won’t give any spoilers but let me just say: Whoa. Wow. Geez! I guess I don’t remember how “mean” the “mean girls/guys” can be from high school however they really are. I still don’t like some of the adults in this story! (I’d say parents but some don’t deserve that title.) Others? I wish they had been in my life when I was younger.
In Whispers and Wishes, Frankie is really put to a life test. There are so many issues and events going on for her that a lesser person would crumble. In a way, she does, a bit, but she is strong and handles most of these things with only a little bit of angst. The character is amazing.
Ian is still in the doghouse with Frankie. Archie is still going thru parental unit issues – alongside Frankie. Coop has been Frankie’s BFF for forever and he adores her. And Jake is Jake, working thru anger issues and being a part of this five-pack, along with everyone else.
This book deals with the beginning of their senior year. Word of warning: my heart just about stopped at the ending. All I can do is repeat: Whoa. Wow. Geez!
Frankie is still on the mend after the events of the previous book. All her boys are rallying around, even Ian who has been distancing himself lately. But is it too much, too late? Can he claim his place back amongst the Quintouple?
Frankie really struggles with having to rely on people and with the patches of her memory that are missing. The boys ae seen more in the usual home life, letting you glimpse what their world is live when they are not around Frankie. Let’s just say that their lives are not what you have so far seen painted – they is way more depth to them.
Rachel is the kinda girl every female wants in her corner. Does she want Frankie herself? Well, possibly. But that won’t stop her from doing all she can to make sure that Frankie is happy.
Be warned there is a cliffhanger!
Whispers and Wishes continues Frankies story. She has a lot of healing to do. Ian has a lot of groveling to do. And then there is the Frankies mom and Archies dad situation. This book much like Frankies life is an emotional rollercoaster that will leave you dizzy. The ending will leave you gasping and desperate for the next installment.
