☆✮ My Review ✮☆
☆I received an ARC via the author's publicist in exchange for an honest review. Thank you!!☆
Saving Poughkeepsie was like homecoming but with a bittersweet ending. While you do get to check in on Blake and Livia as well as Kyle and Cole, it was nice to see Beckett finally succumb to his own circumstances of whether his fate is meant to be/or not to be HEA with Eve.
You see Beckett really grow and develop throughout this and see him mature. He is still a badass, but he also knows the consequences of his actions and will fight till he makes everything right with his family, with his woman, and with himself.
While his quest is not an easy one, there are of course, those who oppose his road to salvation and redemption and will do anything to make his dream a long and insufferable one.
Get ready ladies and gents (of there are any fellas reading this!) for the final installment as we adieu our lovely cast of characters farewell and journey with Beckett as he learns to be a better man and person for himself and those he loves!!

☆✮ Excerpt ✮☆
“Come with me.” He led her to the beach again, but during dinner a few people had been busy. It was now lined with an aisle of candles, and a man stood close to the breaking surf, hands crossed, waiting. Someone had used the surrounding sand as a canvas, creating a swirling pattern. Their names were part of the art.
What? She asked without a sound.
“I want you to marry me. Here. Now.”
Beckett let go of her hand and strode away. When he turned around, close to the water at the end of the aisle, he hoped to hell she wasn’t running in the other direction.

There are a lot of eyes in Debra Anastasia’s house in Maryland. First, her own creepy peepers are there, staring at her computer screen. She’s made two more sets of eyes with her body, and the kids they belong to are amazing. The poor husband is still looking at her after 17 years of marriage. At least he likes to laugh. Then the freaking dogs are looking at her—six eyeballs altogether, though the old dog is blind. And the cat watches her too, mostly while knocking stuff off the counter and doing that internal kitty laugh when Deb can’t catch the items fast enough.
In between taking care of everything those eyes involve, Debra creates pretend people in her head and paints them on the giant, beautiful canvas of your imagination. What an amazing job that is. The stories hit her hard while driving the minivan or shaving her legs, especially when there’s no paper and pen around. In all of the lies she writes hides her heart, so thank you for letting it play in your mind.
Debra is eternally grateful to Omnific Publishing, which has now published five of her books: two in the Seraphim Series and three in the Poughkeepsie Brotherhood Series, as well as her novella, Late Night with Andres. That one is special because 100% of the proceeds go to breast cancer research. (So go get it right now, please!)
You can find her at DebraAnastasia.com and on Twitter @Debra_Anastasia. But be prepared...
