Research librarian Savannah Sanderson wants nothing more than to escape into her happily-ever-after novels with their larger-than-life fictional heroes. But a promise to her late husband has her attending her dreaded twenty-year high school reunion, drinking ghastly punch, and taking desperate measures just to keep her vow, even if she has to hide behind the décor to do it.



Once a reckless troublemaker, Michael McCann fled town after graduation. Now a professional technical rescuer, he’s back for the reunion, but on his trip down memory lane, he soon comes face to face with unresolved issues, namely Savannah.



Before the night is over, a pact between these two old friends will lead them on an adventure into uncharted emotional territory where Michael must confront his past regrets and find the courage to reveal the truth. But can Savannah fly from her sheltered nest and risk her heart on a real-life hero?

My Thoughts:

5 Stars!
Oh my word! This is such a fabulous novel! When I first read the description a few months ago I knew that this was a book I wanted to read, so needless to say I jumped at the chance to request a review copy. I was pulled into the story from the first page and hated to stop reading! Savannah was a wonderful heroine, I liked her instantly and my heart broke for all she had been through, I really admired her strength. And as for Michael, can you say SWOON?! I must confess that I have a soft spot for search and rescue heroes, and if you do too then you're gonna love him as much as I did! 
I LOVED the humor in this book, I can't tell you how many times this book had me literally laughing out loud! 
Besides lots of laughs this book has a fabulous message, and a few pretty suspenseful rescue scenes that had me on the edge of my seat! 
I was fascinated by the scenes at and around Niagara Falls, definitely a great armchair vacation. I loved the author's writing style and her witty voice had me totally enthralled with the story from the get-go! This book is a MUST READ!
I absolutely loved A Promise to Keep, and highly HIGHLY recommend it! I can't wait for this author's next book, and I'm hoping she will write a story about Johnnie and Gillian!



I received an ebook copy of this book from the publisher which did not influence my review in any way. All thoughts and opinions are one hundred percent my own.

  1. I'm so glad you enjoyed Michael and Savannah's story! Yes, Michael is swoony, but also kind and thoughtful, which makes him even more swoony. And yes, I'm working on Johnnie and Gillian's story!
