From New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Mia Sheridan comes the emotional, highly anticipated follow-up to Archer's Voice, following Archer's troubled brother Travis. Perhaps Travis Hale's past is riddled with regrets, but his future looks limitless. He's the police chief in idyllic Pelion, Maine, women are regularly falling at his feet, and his family has mostly forgiven his mistakes. But when the new guy in town crosses him, things start to look shaky—especially when he meets the stranger's smoothie-making, birdseed-eating sister. Haven Torres's life fell apart. Or, rather, burned to the ground. At the time, it seemed like a solid idea to jump in her car, her brother a mostly-willing co-pilot, and embark on a cross-country adventure for the summer. Especially if she can catch the attention of Pelion's most eligible bachelor, Gage Buchanan, before she goes. And after the local police chief tells her of her brother's scandalous misdeed, she knows without a doubt that Pelion is just another town where their stay is best short-lived. Still, she and Travis form an unlikely friendship, and at first, it seems simple enough. She'll help him make her brother sweat a little, and he'll help her win over Gage. But then Haven starts to see the man beneath the brooding, and Travis starts to see the woman beneath the mess. However, Haven refuses to be tied to Pelion. And Travis has vowed never to be second best ever again. Before they know it, simple has started to look pretty complicated.

I was trying to figure out why this showed up on my recommendations. And then I realized it's a sequel (of sorts) to Archer's Voice.
Take my fucking money already.
Didn't think I would like this as much as I did!!
Archers voice is a favourite of mine, and Travis was horrible in it.
But hearing his back story, and point of view... I get it? His behaviour isn't excusable but I understand. He's loveable but feels he's always the second choice and unwanted. He lashed out.
And haven from California... what a bright shining spot in his life. Just passing through but their friendship and passion just is explosive.
4.5 ⭐️s! I really loved this book. Archer's Voice still comes out on top for me, but Travis is not far behind. I love that you get to see Archer and Bree as much as you do inside the story. Travis 100% got his redemption. I am so happy when I read books by Mia. There's something so beautiful about the way she tells the stories she does. I can't explain it, but it really is an amazing feeling. I can't wait for more!
