Title: Saving Poughkeepsie
Author: Debra Anastasia
Series: Poughkeepsie Brotherhood #3
Release Date: November 22, 2014
Synopsis:
Beckett
Taylor’s quest to be a better man has brought Eve Hartt back into his
life, but sometimes it feels like they’re bound together with barbed
wire. Though he longs to love her without causing pain, the wreckage of
their past continues to crash down around them.
Yet with the
help of his brothers—and for his brothers—Beckett won’t stop trying.
He’s determined to make them all a family, to make a life they want to
live, and to make Poughkeepsie a place that’s safe to live it.
He
can feel their futures balanced precariously on his shoulders: Blake
and Livia and their children, Cole and Kyle and the new baby they’ve
just brought home, and Eve…always Eve. He wants their dreams to be real.
But murderers don’t just get Happily Ever After handed to them. They
have to wrench it away from Satan himself.
Good thing Beckett is prepared to do just that. After all, saving Poughkeepsie is the only way his story ends.
Prepare
your heart and your head for a wild ride in this final installment of
the Poughkeepsie Brotherhood series. Debra Anastasia does not disappoint
as she weaves the last chapter of a story that blends true love,
turbulent emotions, and life’s harsh realities into an uplifting tale
that calls to the good in each of us.
Excerpt 1
“I’m not worried about tomorrow. I’m worried about right
now, with you, under this Christmas tree.” Blake supported her neck as he laid
her on the floor.
Livia turned her head. “You’d better convince me. So far
you’ve talked about the dog going to the bathroom, trash, and dirtiness.”
Blake kissed her jaw and turned her head gently, kissing her
mouth as she bit her lips together.
“Can’t I just convince you with my manly ways?” He wiggled
his eyebrows.
He could, of course, do just that—but she shook her head.
She loved the playful sparkle in his green eyes. His five o’clock shadow just
made him more handsome, framing his kissable lips with scruff.
“Okay.” He put his fingers at the bottom of her shirt,
lifting it gently so he could circle her belly button with his index finger.
“You’re the sexiest, most beautiful woman on this planet. So sexy, in fact,
that I had to have you. I had to make you bear my children because my universe
and yours had to be combined. Everything I’ve ever been needed to be buried
inside of you, so deep, so full of love that we created life. Twice.”
He lifted her shirt and kissed the tops of her breasts,
whispering his devotion into her skin. “And it’s never enough. Unless I can
hear you coming, I can’t think of anything else. All day every day. For years
now. You’re that powerful, Livia. This. Us. It’s so intense that years haven’t
cured me. I can’t stop wanting to make love to you.”
“Wow.” Livia smiled and pulled his face back to
hers, kissing him and effectively stopping his beautiful words.
Excerpt 2
“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.
5 STARS
A gorgeous series conclusion
(Non-spoiler review)
After reading book 2, I wondered how the hell Debra Anastasia was going to conclude the Poughkeepsie Brotherhood series. One couple in particular seemed to have so much stacked against them. Well, this series concludes in an epic way…EPIC I tell you!
The themes of brotherhood, friendship, and family continue to be ever present in Saving Poughkeepsie. I think this is one of the reasons why this series has a huge fan base. People relate to and care for these characters in some way. In the midst of all the pain and tragedy, they just want to know if everything will be ok.
In this installment, evil is wrecking havoc all over. Boy, does this person have HUGE, unbelievable plans! For each couple, Ms. Anastasia has lovingly crafted special moments that made me swoon to the stars! So much love and devotion is expressed for Blake and Livia. Although hinted in the summary, Cole and Kyle get to experience happiness tenfold, but there’s so much more that goes down you’ll have to read it to find out what happens. Finally, there is Beckett and Eve. I was weary on how things would conclude for these two, but it was pulled off in such a way that only Debra Anastasia can write it! Becket is such a bad boy (who is trying to be good) and Eve’s biggest dream seemed so impossible to achieve. Ms. Anastasia gave them a roller-coaster journey throughout the entire series, and more so in this book. What a wild and twisted plot filled with humor, love, and suspense!
The Poughkeepsie Brotherhood series is best appreciated when read in order. Saving Poughkeepsie is a MUST READ for fans. You will love it!!!
Although I’m sad that the series has concluded, these characters will live on strong in my heart. Thank you, Debra Anastasia, for telling this gorgeous story and taking me on quite the journey to Poughkeepsie!

The brotherhood thing reminds me of BDB, is it like BDB?
ReplyDeleteYes and no. It's like BDB in that there are three men who are "brothers", and the series surround their lives with the women they are paired with; however, this is not paranormal. There are no vampires in this series. It's adult contemporary romance with a healthy dose of suspense. :)
DeleteLooking forward to upcoming book.
ReplyDeleteYay, Sara! I'm so excited for you to read Saving Poughkeepsie! Good Luck!
