In Promise to Love You, world famous band Wild Minds are set to record an album while vacationing on a Hawaiian island and they offer the producing gig to their drummer, Keithโs, baby sister, Eden. Eden has just started working as an associate producer at Turn Records and this will be a huge deal for her.
Henry Gauthier, their bass player and Eden shared a forbidden encounter three years prior and Henryโs reaction to it destroyed Edenโs childhood crush on him and left her hating him but she is still attracted to him.
Keith warns Henry, his best friend, to stay away from Eden because he knows that Henry has no intention of ever falling in love. Henry is drawn to Eden however despite Keithโs warnings and his own frustrated attempts to stay away from her.
Youโre left wondering what happened to Henry to make him this way? Thank goodness the pacing of this book is perfect because youโre just drawn along until youโve disappeared into the book altogether.
While Henry and Eden are on the island their chemistry and proximity are too powerful to resist any longer and they canโt stay away from each other.
Behind Henryโs glib smiles and easygoing ways heโs unbelievably tortured by his past and Eden is just the woman to see through the defences he throws up.
โI never felt alive until Eden Dawson walked into my life and destroyed it.โ – Henry
Their love is at first forbidden then all-encompassing. Eden is fiery, sweet and wild and everything Henry needs to beat back his demons.
Henry is the strong man Eden has always loved but is he finally ready to love her in the way she deserves? Can they overcome what life throws at them? Can they get through to each other?
I absolutely loved Henry and Edenโs love story in Promise to Love You. The experiences Henry went through absolutely slayed me. Eden is such a great character in her vulnerability, strength and fierceness.
I admired how J. Saman had their story play out, it was absolutely beautiful. The angst was earned and well delivered although it destroyed my heart for a time.
Promise to Love You was such a brilliant send off to a great series. All the characters were really given their fair share of time to shine in this book but not take away from the main story. It was a lovely goodbye to Wild Minds.

Synopsis
Henry Gauthier: Bassist. Gorgeous. My brotherโs best friend. And my first love.
He’s also the man I grew to hate him after a one-night stand went horribly wrong. I’ve spent the last three years successfully dodging him like a bullet.
Now, fresh out of a bad relationship and living in a new city, I finally feel like Iโm starting to get myself together. And when an opportunity to produce Wild Mindsโ newest album presents itself, I canโt help but jump at the chance of a lifetime.
Even if it comes with a caveat.
Three weeks in Hawaii, an impossible to meet deadline, and Henry Gauthier.
***
Eden Dawson: Spitfire. Stunning. My best friendโs sister. And the bane of my existence.
Iโll be the first to admit three years ago I messed up. I shouldnโt have touched her.
Sort of like now. Because my best friend, my bandmate, made me promise that when it comes to his baby sister, I keep my hands to myself.
Only a woman like her is impossible to resist. And before I know it, despite my best efforts, weโre doing all manner of dirty things to each other.
We vow this is only a temporary fling. Promising that no matter what, love is off the table.
Now, I have to make sure two things donโt happen. One, I donโt break my promise to her. Two, her brother doesnโt find out I already broke the one I made to him.
