Blog Tour, Guest Post & Giveaway: Safe With Me (With Me in Seattle #5) by Kristen Proby





Okay, so I’ve only been waiting for this story for the past few books.  No big, right.  Pfft.  I’m a patient girl.  NOT!!!  I’ve been dying for Brynna’s story since Under the Mistletoe With Me.  Brynna Vincent is on the run from some kind of dangerous threat.  Matt and Caleb Montgomery have been working to keep her and her twin daughters safe.  During the course of the series we have seen something brewing between Brynna and Caleb.  Finally, FINALLY, we get their story.

Light up the fireworks.  Shoot off the confetti canons.  Safe With Me has arrived!

The Queen of Swoon has done it again!  Caleb Montgomery, as like most men in this series, is H-O-T!  He’s a badass ex Navy Seal.  He’s a Montgomery.  Need I really say more?  Yes, yes I must because there is so much more to Caleb than his physical attributes and his DNA.  He’s a protector.  A hero.  And sadly, he’s a bit damaged.  His last mission left him with deep, emotional wounds; demons that he can’t escape.  Over the past year of watching over Brynna and her girls, they have been carving their way into his heart.  He’s grown attached to them and vice versa.  Unfortunately, he thinks he’s undeserving of them and this way of thinking leads him to making the biggest mistake he’ll ever make.  A mistake that not only results in heartache, but one that may cost Brynna and her daughters their life.

Brynna Vincent has my upmost respect.  She’s a mom who, regardless of being married at one time to her girls’ dad, was basically already living a single mom life.  Her ex-husband was married to his job.  He let that take precedence over his family.  It’s sad that he never really bothered to get to know his girls; they are the sweetest little things.  Brynna is so strong.  Over the years she’s had to endure a lot.  Now with danger on her trail and Caleb protecting her, her life isn’t the only thing at risk.  Caleb is the first man since her ex to pique her interest.  She wants him.  She knows he feels it too.  So why not get together?  Why does he keep fighting what’s between them?  She swore to herself she wouldn’t beg for a man’s affections ever again.  If he turns his back on her, that’s it, they’re done.

Oh, Ms. Proby had my stomach in knots with this one.  Safe With Me had me reaching for a tissue one minute and in the next I’m reaching for Tums.  It was the perfect amount of angst, heat, and emotion.  And if the turmoil between Caleb and Brynna wasn’t enough, she dropped a major bombshell on us that left me speechless.  From a writing standpoint, I’d say it was brilliant.  The one thing I have continued to say about this series is that Kristen Proby writes like real life.  Real life continues, evolves and at times aches.  She showed us just how real the Montgomerys are.  They are not as perfect as they seem.  There’s a crack in the façade.  But like true Montgomery fashion, above all else is love.  What doesn’t kill us, makes us stronger, right?     

Now that I’ve inhaled this one, I shall “patiently” wait for the next installment.
