The kid is now a man,
and he’s got something to prove…..
Caleb “Cruise” Harrison
“A Dad is a son’s first hero……”
All my life I’ve looked up to my Dad, there’s nothing I ever wanted to do more than be a member of the Moonshine Task Force right next to him. I said no to playing football professionally to stay in Laurel Springs and fulfill my dream.
I’m biding my time, paying my dues, and soaking up any bit of information my fellow MTF members slip my way. To most of them I’m the kid they watched grow up, and while they’re proud of me, they don’t take me seriously.
Life is status quo until the morning all hell breaks loose in our small town threatening everyone I know and love – including the one woman I can’t get out of my head.
Ruby Carson
“My favorite place? In his arms……”
Caleb saved me from the worst date of my life, swooping in like the fixer he is. Smiling his panty-melting grin, he grabbed my hand, and extricated me from the longest ninety minutes known in the history of the world.
Instead, he took me on the best date I’ve ever had. We’ve been inseparable since that crazy night.
It hasn’t been picture-perfect. His job is dangerous, it worries me, even when he tells me not to. One gorgeous summer day, it all comes crashing down on us.
The man who has my heart is in the middle of a FUBAR situation that has no good ending. My hope is, when the smoke clears Caleb walking towards me, arms out-stretched, with that grin on his face, before he envelopes my body into the hug only he can give.
That’s what would happen in a perfect world – but I’ve never known a perfect world – not even with Caleb……

5 “I Want Me a
Harrison Man” Stars!
I really didn’t know how
this story was going to go down.
Having read this
series from the beginning, these characters, these men, they’ve all come to own
their own little pieces of my heart, even before their stories get told and
they find their HEA.
That being said,
Mason was the one to beat. He really was. Now, given that Cruise (Caleb) is his
son, it should have been a no brainer, but to be honest, I didn’t know how the
author would write Caleb, how his love story would unfold or if he’d come close
to the precedent his father set in terms of me and this authors ability to tell
a tale.
He did. He is a Harrison
man, through and through. I loved this ride.
I also have to say I
thoroughly enjoy the way this author tackles drama in her stories. Each one is
unique to the people it’s about, but it also doesn’t drag out through the
entire story. Like, you’re not drowning in nonsense and you don’t have a raft
in sight. She handles it in a way where it does make an impact, but it isn’t
useless or page filler.
It’s not the first
time I’ve said that and if she keeps with the way all of her books have gone in
this regard, it won’t be the last. I’m blown away by her ability to write a book
that seems fast paced, while keeping it real, and not dragging things out
needlessly for pages.
Giving you a
connection, multiple ones really, family wise and romantic relationship wise, and
making you with each page turned, build your own hopes and dreams for these
couples you’re now so attached to. For this family. Because for me, this entire
series is one gigantic family.
Caleb, if you’ve read
any of the others, he’s not perfect. He hasn’t had the best start in life (his
raising all things considered was great…#TeamMason) but he’s become a strong
man regardless of beginnings. One who doesn’t love easy, but once he does, he does
so with his entire being. But he’s still not perfect. He messes up. He has
things he has to deal with. He’s human. So, I knew going in, something was
going to happen here that would show how imperfect he was. But also show, and
give the readers a chance to see, how the right person, the right people in
this case, have the ability to pull you back out of the dark when things do
happen. Remind you (or Caleb in this sense) of just how strong you are.
Reminders of the type of man you are, and what kind of man you will or want to
become.
It was such a treat
to see this man all grown up. To see how similar to Mason he is, while still
being uniquely different. I was invested in Caleb from his inception in these
books and his story only made me love him more.
Honestly, these
stories here, they get better and better. Stronger even, the deeper we go in. I’ll
be sad to see this series end, but I know there will be more on the horizon and
I can’t wait to see where it all goes. Where this author takes us next.
This was definitely a
love story, a journey, and a HEA worth waiting for.
My thanks to the
author and all others involved in letting me read an advanced copy of this
story before official release. It was such an honor to travel along with Caleb,
and of course, all the others again.
