About this ebook

Can love heal old wounds?

Mia Grant, a one-time pop star, still bears emotional scars caused by a stalker who terrorized her for years—a person she inadvertently welcomed into her inner circle. She has come a long way in learning to manage the crippling fear and anxiety his savage attack left her with, and she books into River’s Sigh B & B to begin the grueling task of what she hopes will be the final step in her recovery. Determined to reclaim her old independence and sense of adventure and possibility, she vows to never let anyone get close enough to fool or injure her again.

The disfiguring scars on Gray Robertson’s body are nothing compared to those marring his damaged heart and psyche. A loner by nature, the brutal murder of his young wife and son made him a hermit. He lives off-grid in the wilderness of northern Canada with only his dog for company, finding isolation far easier to survive than loving people and having them torn away. 

When his closest neighbor, Jo at River’s Sigh B & B, ropes him into giving self-defense lessons to some washed up musician, Gray figures it’s a safe way to make a bit of cash to see him through winter. 

As Mia and Gray get to know each other, neither are prepared for the tumultuous, conflicting emotions that leave them reeling. In him, a convoluted mix of desire, protectiveness, and misplaced fury. In her, a complex stew of appreciation, longing, and apprehension. 

Then a foolish decision puts Mia's life in peril and forces questions she and Gray are both scared to answer. Are they too damaged to risk further hurt? 

Fans of heartwarming small-town contemporary romance, second chances, friends to lovers, and furry dog friends will fall in love with River’s Sigh B & B and never want to leave!  

Ratings and reviews

Ev Bishop's Reeling blew me away. She depicts such broken characters in a way that makes me not able to lay the book down until I have finished it. The story is not depressing because the characters are always growing, learning to deal with their lives, and growing into love. I really want to book a vacation at River's Sigh B & B. This amazing place is an important part of the plot. I highly recommend this book - but do not start to read it late unless you do not plan to sleep! Wonderful story, great characters.

Another wonderful River's Sigh story! Reeling is the sixth book in the River's Sigh B & B series but it also stands alone just fine. The whole series is full of wonderful stories, however, and I highly recommend all of them. The blurb does an excellent job of describing what the book is all about so I'm going to describe how it made me feel while reading it. Mia and Gray have horrible things in their past and reading about them made me cry for what they'd been through. These things greatly impacted how they interacted with each other and also led to the main conflict that they had to overcome. Mia was the first to come around and I wanted to shake Gray and tell him to wake up and live instead of hiding away. He had to figure things out on his own though and once he did I cried big fat happy tears for them. Ev Bishop's writing brings River's Sigh to life; it feels like a real place to me, one that I'd love to visit and meet all of the wonderful characters from her stories. For me, Reeling is the best kind of book – one that makes me feel things deeply, cry sad and happy tears, and also laugh a bit – I love Gray's dog, Wolf! I hope Ev Bishop continues to write stories in this beautiful world she's created. One character in particular still needs a book. 😊 ***Reviewed for Xtreme-Delusions dot com***

About the author

Ev Bishop lives and writes in a remote small town in wildly beautiful British Columbia, Canada—a place that inspires the setting for her cozy sweet romance series, RIVER’S SIGH B & B.

The series can be read in any order, or even just as standalone stories, but really, isn’t it the most fun to start with book one? J
