Crushing on Love Tour and Giveaway

New Release........
Book #4 The Bradens of Peaceful Harbor

Steve Johnson is living his life’s passion watching over the Colorado Mountains as a ranger and wildlife consultant. But his peaceful life is upended when overzealous and insanely beautiful Shannon Braden flits back into his life after returning from a brief trip home to Maryland. He thought his attraction to her was under control—after all, she’s only in Colorado temporarily, and he doesn’t do casual affairs.

Shannon’s return to Colorado has as much to do with the game of cat and mouse she and Steve have been playing as it does the data she’s been hired to collect. But despite her efforts to explore the undeniable heat simmering between them, Steve’s intent on keeping his distance. 

When a ranch abutting the national park goes up for sale, Steve will do whatever it takes to keep it from falling into the wrong hands. And when all his attempts fail, he’s left with no alternative but to follow Shannon’s guidance into the online world he abhors in order to raise the funds. The more time they spend together, the deeper their attraction becomes, and a game of cat and mouse turns into an unstoppable connection. But when Shannon’s assignment comes to an end, will it mean an end to them, too?

CRUSHING ON LOVE is part of the Love in Bloom series. While this can be read as a stand-alone novel, for even more reading enjoyment you may want to read the entire Love in Bloom series in series order.

When her boss’s sinfully sexy brother sets his sights on sweet Faith, she knows the self-professed player is everything she shouldn’t want, and she’s determined to resist him.

Sam pulls out all the stops, proving to Faith that his past doesn’t have to define his future. As she lets down her guard and begins to trust Sam, intense conversations turn to intimate pleasures. But when real life steps in and their pasts collide, it’s Faith who’s left with something to prove.

MY REVIEW OF Crushing on Love

When Shannon Braden was offered the job of researching red fox in the Colorado Mountains, she jumped at the opportunity. Not only did she have a passion for that type of work, she equally had a passion for Steve Johnson, the mountain man she’d see every day. Although they were total opposites, a social butterfly and a loner, there was no denying the attraction between them. Even though Shannon will only be there a few weeks, they both decide to pursue a relationship, agreeing that it will only be until she goes back home to Peaceful Harbor. But when the time comes to leave, will either of them be able to honor the agreement? It won’t be easy.


Shannon was adorable with her non-stop jabbering, and who can resist a hunky mountain man. I loved their nicknames for each other, and all the little secrets they shared between them. It would have been so fun to be around all the characters in the story. They are all so friendly and approachable. And I always like catching up with Braden couples from previous reads.
