Four years ago losing the love of my life almost destroyed me.
Years of being labeled and looked upon with disdain by everyone in my hometown almost wrecked me.
Four years ago I became a mother and together we were enough...Until I met him.
He wanted to rebuild my broken–I just didn’t know how to let him.
This is my story of how one man’s love changed everything I thought I knew about life, love and myself.
But in the end, can Levi Eddison prove to be my restoration?

Levi
Everything in my world changed the day Braunwyn Daniels walked into my pub.
She was a woman of many contradictions. I recognized the happiness and sorrow each fighting its way to the surface from deep within.
I was drawn to her immediately.
Behind her long legs, chestnut brown hair and beautiful eyes laid a damaged soul.
I needed to change that–I just didn’t know how.
This is my story of how I met a broken girl and vowed to make her whole.

Favorite Quotes:
“Trust me,
Levi is the stuff that the female population most definitely memorizes and
stores up in their minds and plays, on repeat, in their version of the ‘spank
bank’ (what London and I refer to as the ‘Jill Till’) after taking in the sight
of him.
Hell, I myself will be playing him on repeat with Mr. Buz.”
“Oh man, the
things we’ve seen over the years, I swear the city bus can be just as bad as
Wal-Mart after midnight.”
“On the
inside, I’m melting into a huge puddle of girlie-goo, into a pool of Oh My God,
Did That Just Happen?”
“I’m more than
ready for this. I want to love again,
Levi. I want to stop thinking about
living and actually live again.”
“I want you to
be my yestermorrow, always, Levi. The
place where my yesterdays and tomorrows will forever cross. I want all my days entwined with yours. I need you to be my past, my present, and my
future.”
My Review:
I adored this
story and this couple. I frequently crave
a sweet and sexy romance where the characters are not in mired in constant angst
and conflict with each other, but rather are supportive and pulling together as
a united force instead. The plot line
was interesting and fresh, and the characters were likable, compassionate, and
tender with each other. Despite the occasional heaviness and
underlying tragedy and aftermath resulting from suicide, and the years of
ensuing grief, the writing was actually humorous, fun, crisp, and clever. I enjoyed their wordplay, banter, and
alliteration. And any heroine who enjoys
Moscato has an instant in with me.
Gillian Jones is a new favorite and is definitely one to watch.

Note from the Author
Dear Reader,
Mental illness is a growing concern in our world today. On the Rocks is about surviving the aftermath of suicide, and believing in love again. Levi and Braunwyn’s love story is inspired by events that impacted the lives of people I care about deeply. With all of the research and ongoing concerns with mental health, I’ve decided to try and do something to bring awareness and light to this growing concern. I will be donating 10% of all pre-order and release week profits to Canadian Mental Health Association.
