Whisper Falls is Here!

Whisper Falls is now in stores! The much-anticipated third book in the Destiny series and follow-up to One Reckless Summer and Sugar Creek releases today. Tessa Sheridan came crawling back to Destiny, Ohio after her big city interior design career crumbled, never expecting to find a bad boy biker next door–with a dark, secret past. When Lucky Romo invites Tessa into his world, the heat sparking between them is downright dangerous. So far there are six books slated to take place in Destiny, and now is the perfect time to get caught up on the series. Start now with the excerpt for Whisper Falls. Whisper Falls is available at numerous booksellers and retail outlets, including Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and Borders. Don't see it at your local store? Be sure to ask someone to help you find or order it.

Reviewers are loving Whisper Falls so far! Romantic Times gave it 4 stars and said, "Sparks definitely fly and secrets are discovered in the latest Destiny, Ohio, novel. You’d think the bad boy/girl-next-door relationship would get tired, but Blake keeps things interesting and her characters are both heartwarming and touching." Whisper Falls also received a Best Book rating from Long and Short Reviews that called it "A powerful love story about redemption (and) living life to the fullest … a deeply emotional novel that tugs at the heartstrings. Tessa’s realization that Lucky loves her is the most incredibly touching, heartwarming, and unique scene I have ever read." Read more of the early praise for Whisper Falls.
