~Synopsis~
With
her best friend happily married and now pregnant, Sam Matthews should be
overjoyed. Instead, she can only see what is missing in her life. Pushing her
emotions aside, she retreats to a piece of her past that she’s kept hidden,
something that even her best friend knows nothing about.
Taking
a step into her future, Sam moves to North Carolina where she once again
encounters Mark Robertson. He is persistent and hard to resist, and little by
little, he uses his charms to break through Sam’s walls.
As
Sam starts to open her heart to Mark, she convinces herself that the past
should stay in the past. But when her past creeps into the present, her secrets
could cost her every hope and happiness in her future.

~Excerpt~
I
received a couple of catcalls as my body moved to the music. I knew the best
thing was to always ignore them as I let the music take me over. My hips
swayed, and my hands went up in the air. The third song started playing, and a
light gleam of sweat coated my skin. Some unwanted bodies had tried to get
close to me, but I knew how to keep my distance from strangers without losing
my rhythm. It was freeing. I was lost in the beat when familiar hands came
around my front. I knew it was Mark.
His
mouth came to my ear. “Hey. Wanna dance?”
Mark
pulled me to him. Our bodies joined, and we began moving together. His head
came down and kissed the exposed part of my neck, and I tilted to the side to
give him full access. The crowd had thickened and was pressing in on us. The
pulse of the music drove us. We moved until we were both a hot mess, and
neither one of us had said a word through multiple songs of the most
hip-grinding, dirty dancing I had ever done.
After
nibbling on my earlobe, Mark said, “Let’s say bye to the boys, and then I’m
taking you home. I think all these assholes got the picture of whose bed you
belong in.”
Turning
to face him, I kissed him hard as his hands stroked my back. His leg went
between my legs, and we started moving again. Our hot tongues danced with each
as our bodies moved as one. We were both sweaty and hot. We were about to be a
sexual explosion out here if we didn’t leave soon.
Pulling
back barely, our lips still touching, I responded, “Now, all the girls who were
hanging around, hoping for a shot with you, know who you’re taking to bed
tonight.”
He
grabbed my ass, bringing me closer to him, and it only increased my sexual need
for him.
Mark
bit my lip and then said, “I like you a little jealous. Let’s go before I lose
my remaining bit of self-control.”
~Review~
Kristin Mayer has done a very outstanding job with
writing “Promise Me.” I fell in love with Mark and Sam’s story, I knew that
there was something going on with her from the previous books but I would’ve
never thought it was that drastic. I love Mark so much becaue he’s such a
sweetheart, he makes a wonderful boyfriend, and the fact that he never gave up
on Sam made him even more appealing. I enjoyed the first two books in the
series. Promise Me continued the momentum of suspense, drama and romance. This
time around we get an inside view on way Sam uses rough, no strings attach sex
to keep her emotions at bay. Mark showed her that she’s worth more than being
his one night stand, something she wasn’t expecting to happen. I loved that
Mark was able to show her what she was worth. Sam’s parents got on my nerves, I
mean come on she’s grown and can make her own choices, the whole back and forth
sh*t was making me crazy. Last but not
least, the sex scenes, holy mother of everything that is hot Kristin out did
herself this time around, your kindles, iPad or whatever else you use to read
will catch on fire folks. All in all I this book is about loving yourself
enough to forgive your past and look to your, that’s what Sam had to do in
order to have a future with Mark. I know he wasn’t one of the “main”
characters, but damn I love me some Adam, yummmmeee, can’t wait for his book.
Oh I have a feeling it’s going to be a hot one.
