Release Blitz & Review - MISSING MAVERICK by Anna Brooks


 Release Date: October 14


I was going to love her until my last breath, and she promised to do the same… but she lied.

Cricket McBride packed up without warning, ditching our small town and the life we were going to build together. She left me with tears in her eyes, a kiss on my cheek, and an empty heart that had done nothing but hardened over the years.

My life wasn’t what I thought it would be, but I’d long since accepted it for what it was. I was content with working on my family ranch and being the best father I could. And I was fine with that.

Or so I thought.

When Cricket returned, one look was all it took for me to admit I still cared, but it wasn’t until I saw the marks on her skin and the pain in her soul that I realized just how deep that love went. Because the same hands that held her tight also promised to protect her… and I never broke a promise.

This is book 3 in the Ryder Ranch Series and we have been patiently waiting Maverick's story as we have had many glimpses of the love he once had and the hate that his broken heart has lead to. Will they find a way to leave the past where it belongs and more forward?

Maverick was lost when his best friend and high school sweetheart who he had promised his life with, just up and leaves him with no word. Turning to work, booze and meaningless sex has been his attempt at getting by. Some of those events have brought him some special kind of love with his two beautiful girls Aubrey and Dixie May. The love he once gave to one girl is now shared with his little girls that he is an amazing father to. Something is still missing though, the whole in his heart that was left behind has never healed.

Cricket made the choices she made all those years ago when she packed up and left her one love behind, change the course that they had planned out. She tried to move on and make a new life, she became a successful chef, owning her own business, even getting married. With that life now crumbled apart, she is headed back home, where she knows the small town will be hard to face, but needed in to be there for her parents and put on her big girl panties.

Will Cricket and Maverick be able to share the small town they once loved and all the memories they shared or will the hate the loss from a decade ago be too much? 

The constant push and pull between these characters was a lot to take in while reading. I felt myself getting mad at them for not really communicating. An emotional read that will keep you vested in following it to the end.

Binge the Series Now!


The first time Anna tried to read a romance novel, her hair caught on fire when she leaned over a candle to sneak a peek at her mom’s Harlequin. She thinks being hit on the head with a shirtless Fabio until the smoke cleared is what sparked the flame for her love of romance. 

Anna was born in Wisconsin, but currently lives in Texas with her husband and two boys. 


She writes sexy romance that always has a happy ending and loves bringing characters back for cameos. Less than six degrees of separation connects any of her novels. 


When she’s not writing or reading, she’s watching reruns of her favorite romcoms, talking to her dog and cat like they’re human, eating carbs, or practicing hand lettering. 

 

She loves to hear from readers and can be found on social media as @annabrooksauth everywhere.
