I was so happy to be introduced to a new-to-me author, Melony Teague. JustRead sent me her ebook for review! So thankful they did. Welcome to the Blog + Quote Tour (and Giveaway!) for A Promise to Keep by Melony Teague, hosted by JustRead Publicity Tours!
ABOUT THE BOOK
A Promise to Keep
Author: Melony Teague
Publisher: Anaiah Press
Release Date: January 21, 2020
Genre: Inspirational Contemporary Romance
Research librarian Savannah Sanderson wants nothing more than to escape into her happily-ever-after novels with their larger-than-life fictional heroes. But a promise to her late husband has her attending her dreaded twenty-year high school reunion, drinking ghastly punch, and taking desperate measures just to keep her vow, even if she has to hide behind the décor to do it.
Once a reckless troublemaker, Michael McCann fled town after graduation. Now a professional technical rescuer, he’s back for the reunion, but on his trip down memory lane, he soon comes face to face with unresolved issues, namely Savannah.
Before the night is over, a pact between these two old friends will lead them on an adventure into uncharted emotional territory where Michael must confront his past regrets and find the courage to reveal the truth. But can Savannah fly from her sheltered nest and risk her heart on a real-life hero?
My Review:
This was my first Melony Teague book and I'll be back for me. This was such a delightful story! Savannah was a character I could relate to slightly. Who wants to go to their high school reunion? I'd definitely be hiding behind plants.
Then there's Michael who is the wallflower turned rescuer guy. lol Isn't that how guys hope things will turn out after high school? Especially if they didn't have it so great back then? He's a terrific contrast to our scheduled, straight and narrow leading lady.
I was surprised at the directions this story took and was pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoyed them. The adventures they go on kept me wondering what they'd do next. Would Savannah be willing? Would Michael be understanding? How would they find a middle ground?
Believe me I'm ready for more Melony Teague novels!
