{Blog Tour & Giveaway} Searching for Always by Jennifer Probst (@JenniferProbst @GalleryBooks)

7/3/2015

New York Times and USA TODAY bestselling author Jennifer Probst sparks a blissful mind-body connection as her “sexy, satisfying” (Kirkus Reviews) new series continues!

She’s an expert in helping others de-stress, but Arilyn Meadows is running on fumes. Along with her job counseling singles seeking soul mates at the Kinnections agency in Verily, New York, she’s a yoga teacher, animal shelter volunteer, anger management therapist, and helping hand to her beloved grandfather. No time to find Mr. Right--but after discovering her yogi boyfriend in a compromising asana, Arilyn would rather dog-sit for her honeymooning friend Kate than risk her heart on another downward dog. And when police officer Stone Petty--radiating masculinity and bad-boy attitude--is sent to her for mandatory lessons in cooling off when the job gets too hot, Arilyn vows to ignore his seductive glances and sexy grin. But there’s no halting their sizzling flirtation--a red-hot, high-speed chase that’s breaking all the limits.

“He was as intimidating as she remembered. The man literally has to duck under the doorway and walked across the small room they’d rented from the town. Dressed in worn jeans, a washed-out Yankees jersey, and a backwards baseball cap, his casual attire did nothing to soften the raw sexual energy that radiated around him. He moved with purpose, each motion economical, his gaze pinned so tight and hot on hers she fought an answering tremble. What was wrong with her? Sure, she had a weakness for authority figures, but she was attracted to the starving artist type – long hair, graceful features, charming smiles, lean bodies. She adored men who created, stared softly into space with a dreamy look in their eyes, caught up in their muse and the magic of the world. Gentle souls who needed support and unconditional love.

She wondered if Stone Petty had ever had a dreamy thought in his life.”

Arilyn Meadows believes in being kind. Kind to her body, kind to animals and kind to Mother Earth. So why can’t she just find a nice yoga partner to settle down with?

Now she’s agreed to lead an Anger Management class to help her students get in touch with inner peace and find calm in just breathing. She’s more than confident that she can teach three testosterone-filled humans how to see the world in a more peaceful light – until Officer Petty walks through the door.

“I don’t want to be your friend,” he growled.

Arilyn stiffened. Every inch of her body tingled. “Fine, we’re not friends. You’ve never been civil anyway.”

“You’re right. I’m not civil or even civilized when I get near you. Wanna know what I really want to do?”

“No.”

“Tough shit. Gonna tell you anyway.” A low moan escaped her lips, because she was burning up for him and hated every minute of it.

“I want to strip these organic clothes from your body, lay you out on the bed, and explore every inch. Bite, suck, lick. I want to push inside that wet heat I know is waiting for me and make you come so hard you won’t be able to speak for at least five full minutes. I want to do bad things to you, Arilyn. Dirty things. Things that would shock you to the core and cause you to run screaming out the door if you’re a nice girl. Are you a nice girl?”

Stone Petty has been suspended for giving an abuser a good taste of his own medicine. Part of his suspension requires him to attend an overrated yoga class and share his "feelings" with perfect strangers. That’s so NOT going to happen.

But Arilyn is getting under his skin and it’s making him do crazy things! Things like save tiny hairless dogs, eat organic vegetables and even try to open up his heart.

He knows she believes in happily ever afters. And as much as he wants her – all of her - he’s just too broken to give her what she deserves. But now living without her is like living without his soul.

Searching for Always is a quirky, smart and laugh out loud read! Jennifer’s talent for creating hysterical banter between her characters is in top form but the star of the book isn’t whom you might think it is. It’s Pinky the Chihuahua.

Pinky not only worked her magic on Arilyn and Robert, but she totally tamed Officer Petty with just a touch from her little cold nose. Go Team Pinky…
