BOOK SUMMARY:
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.
REVIEW:
Searching for Always is the forth book in Jennifer Probst’s
Searching For series. I was greatly anticipating reading Arilyn’s story and
loved it as I have loved every story in the series.
Arilyn Meadows is the third partner at the Kinnections
dating service with Kate and Kennedy. She does the computer programming, yoga
instruction and anger management counseling. Arilyn is upset because she has
just been hurt for the last time by her boyfriend of 5 years, Jacob. He was her
yoga instructor and they had a relationship on and off until she caught him
having sex with another woman.
Stone Petty is the police officer who was called when Genevieve was having trouble with her ex
David the year before. Stone and Arilyn didn’t like each other from the beginning.
He has been a police officer for years, who has transferred to Verily from the
Bronx after an incident. Stone also has been cheated on and also caught his ex
having sex with his old partner.
After an incident during his shift, Stone finds himself
signed up for anger management class and Arilyn is the teacher. He has no
intent in taking the class, especially since she is the teacher and he doesn’t
like her. Stone fights everything Arilyn tries to teach him in the class to
calm down when his anger flares up. He is told by his boss he has no choice but
to take the class and complete it, so he decides to deal with it. Arilyn isn’t
happy that he is in the class either, but there is also no denying there is a
crackle of electricity between them and a fierce attraction.
Arilyn helps foster rescue dogs. There is a house which she
thinks maybe abusing dogs. Expecting to find large dogs, she is surprised to
find a tiny Chihuahua which she calls Pinky. Stone catches her trespassing on
the property. She begs him not to arrest her and allow her to take the dog so
she can save it by treating it’s wounds. Stone allows her to take the dog, but
tells her that she owes him and brings it to her house. They share an explosive
kiss, which proves the pull they have with each other. Stone tells her there is
a price for saving her and the dog. He says when she is ready to take the leap
with him and see how their relationship goes, she has to ask him.
Arilyn tells Kate and Kennedy about Stone. They encourage
her to ask him to Kate’s wedding. At the bachelorette party they have for Kate,
Stone is there with his partner to stop a fight. He hears all the noise in the
room where they are for the party. Genevieve tells him that Arilyn wants to talk
to him. Stone goes in the room, the other women think he is the cop stripper
they hired and want him to start the show. Since Kate is nervous, she has
Arilyn sit in her chair. When Stone sees Arilyn, he asks her what’s going on.
She tells him he should give the women the show they want. He starts to strip
but only focuses on Arilyn and the show is for her.
The scene at Kate’s wedding was awesome. It was great to have
Stone hang out with Slade, Nate and Wolfe. Even better was having Carina, Max,
Nick, Alexa, Michael and Maggie there since they were in the Marriage to a
Billionaire series. Kate and Kennedy encourage Arilyn to see how things go with
Stone. She is Searching for Always.
Forever. Stone is only interested in a physical relationship since he
has been so hurt in his past.
Arilyn asks Stone to take Pinky the Chihuahua since she
watches Robert for Kate. He doesn’t want to and tries to get someone else to
watch the dog. Reluctantly he starts getting attached to Pinky after taking
care of her. After Stone and Arilyn’s relationship progresses, she tells Stone
she loves him. He isn’t ready for a relationship, he pushes her away, says that
he isn’t good for her and gives her back Pinky. Arilyn’s grandfather tells
Stone that some things are worth trying and fighting for. Stone realizes he has
been wrong and goes to get back Pinky and Arilyn.
In the end Arilyn realizes the greatest relationship she has
is the one with her friends. I loved this series and absolutely recommend it!
