Need You Now

Written by Nicole Helm

Narrated by Brian Hutchison

He's mountain-tough. She's city-smart. The sparks are about to fly. Only the most resilient of souls could breathe new life into an all-but-forgotten town nestled in the shadow of the Rocky Mountains-but what they get in return might be worth the heartache it takes to make it happen. Gracely, Colorado, was once a booming mining town. No one knows that better than Brandon Evans. His father's company kept the town thriving for years-until Brandon threatened to expose his illegal practices and drove him away. Everyone blames Brandon and his brother for turning Gracely into a ghost town-but the tenacious residents cling to a long-held legend about the land's healing powers. And Brandon has a plan to spin that legend into reality. Lilly Preston took a leap of faith and moved to Gracely a year ago to save her nephew from an abusive situation. She would do anything for him, even sacrifice her glamorous job. Reluctantly, the former PR hot shot takes a job at the ruggedly handsome Evans brothers' Mile High Adventures, a company offering restorative Rocky Mountain vacations. Brandon thinks PR is pointless, and Lilly knows less than nothing about the outdoors. Which is exactly why they need each other-in ways neither ever imagined. "Sharp, funny, and sinfully sexy-Nicole Helm is my favorite new author!" -Maisey Yates, New York Times bestselling author.

Reviews for Need You Now

[pam50627 · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

Need You Now is the story of Brandon Evans & Lilly Preston. Both characters are carrying a lot of excess emotional baggage from the past with them. This baggage affects every decision they make. Brandon, his brother Will & friend Sam are determined to make a success of their business to try to help their hometown. The town has been steadily going downhill since Brandon turned in his father for unethical practices & the mine closed. The town has unfairly blamed the brothers for everything instead of their father. Lily carries baggage from her childhood & her mother/father. It has completely warped her view of love & relationships. She has an over developed sense of responsibility towards her sister & nephew. From the minute Lily & Brandon meet there is an intense chemistry between them. Can they move past their baggage or will it hold them back? When an event causes Lily to draw into herself, will Brandon abandon her or stick by her side?I enjoyed the interactions between Lily & Brandon and between each of them & their siblings. They are trying to find a new stage of sibling relationship under the different circumstances. The way the author describes the scenery, the reader can create a picture in their mind. I enjoyed this one & cant wait for Sam's story!
