About this ebook

Don’t look down and don’t give up.

Justin Oberman‘s credo for living his adventurous–some might say death-defying–life to the max served him well until the unfortunate outcome of a climb made him walk away from the sport he loved. A lucrative new job offer could pave the way to a more traditional life in Marietta, Montana, where his two best friends have fallen in love with the women of their dreams. But settling down always seemed more daunting than Everest and not worth considering until a mysterious lady in red walks into his life on New Year’s Eve. Suddenly, that happily-ever-after stuff Flynn and Tucker have been raving about looks within reach.

The first fall is always the hardest.

Nikki Magnesson Richards has loved Justin Oberman most of her life. First, from the safety of her brothers’ old tree house. Later, with unrequited teen-age angst. Her poorly thought out attempt to get him to notice her cost them both dearly. Now, a dozen years later, her fairy godfather boss has orchestrated the most romantic meeting possible–the Big Sky Mavericks Masked Ball for Charity. A kiss at midnight with her very own Prince Charming isn’t too much to ask, is it? But what are two star-crossed lovers supposed to do when one kiss isn’t enough?

Ratings and reviews

I couldn't get interested in the story.

Love, loved this book!!!! A fairy tale that comes true, even with the fairy god father to help along. I really enjoyed how much both of these characters had to over come for the love of their lives. They both tried to live to their fullest on edge until injury took it away. The book starts at a New Years Eve Masquerade Party in Marietta Montana, Nikki walks in with a cane, when Justin spots this beautiful lady. Little does he know, but she was the little girl next door that had a huge crush on him, the person that ended his career as a rock climber due to a devastating injury and to top it off his new boss. There is an immediate chemistry between these two, and dreams will come true. I so enjoyed the relationship of Nikki and her so called boss, J Angus. The father that she never had. He will make sure her dreams come true even on his death bed. I highly recommend this book along with the rest of the series, can be all stand alone books but better read in order. I am hoping to read more of this series from the author, pretty please! I received this book from netgalley for an honest review.

Salonen had me giggling from the get-go with this one. She expertly melds emotions with heat to create a true romance that you can’t look away from. The picturesque surroundings of Marietta came to life through the intricate descriptions. I enjoyed how the characters have a troubled past together, yet are both moving forward, if in closed off manners at times. The supporting cast was also fantastic. The ties to past novels in the series without depending on them was genius. And the new characters were a blast as well. J. Angus` personality drew me in. He was the type of guy who draws a crowd no matter what. He was also so caring and supportive of those around him, while also demanding the best. Once again Salonen has created a heartfelt romance with a kick. It was a great read alone or as part of the series. Please note that I received a complimentary copy of this work in exchange for an honest review.
