Blog Tour & Giveaway: Lucky Harbor Series by Jill Shalvis

Guest Post – Jill Shalvis’ Lucky Harbor Series Wrap Up
 
Lucky Harbor started with three estranged sisters inheriting a dilapidated inn on the Pacific Northwest coast. It was supposed to be all one book, in fact. But I never could manage to contain it in one story so I split it into three, one love story for each sister. My goodness that was fun. It was so much fun, I came up with another trilogy idea. Three strangers stuck alone in a storm in a diner with nothing readily available except a chocolate cake. Hello, chocoholics. I thought it would end there but I’ve never been so happy to be wrong. And so, unbelievably, here I am twelve books later, still as much in love with Lucky Harbor as I ever was. Oh the fun I had coming up with characters and figuring out how to torture them.:) Seriously, I have the best job on the planet.
 
To celebrate the end of the series, today I’m answering some fan questions about Lucky Harbor.
 

In Always on My Mind, Leah and Jack have known each other for a very, very long time. When they reunite, do you have a favorite scene between the couple?

When Leah tells Jack’s mother that she and Jack are a couple … which is a really big fib.

Is there a character that really snuck up on you and surprised you when they took over the page?

Mysterious Cute Guy from Lucky in Love! He showed up for about a second in Head Over Heels and I didn’t even name him. But then when I was thinking about creating a new hero, he popped back in my head—it turns out his name is Ty and he is a tortured, bad-boy (well, former bad-boy 🙂

Which hero from Lucky Harbor gets the most reader attention? What do they say about him?

Probably Sawyer Thompson from Head Over Heels … he is widely beloved. And sexy as hell, if I say so myself. 🙂

For the next generation of Lucky Harbor residents, do you think the kids from the different couples will fall in love?

Yes!  I love this idea. I think Chloe and Sawyer’s kid will end up with one of Jax and Maddie’s kids. Just to drive the dads nuts. Can you imagine Sawyer as the father of a daughter? I feel sorry for the boys who want to date her.  🙂

Saying goodbye to Lucky Harbor was far more difficult than I imagined. I mean I thought I was ready to leave but as I wrote this last trilogy, It’s In His Kiss, He’s So Fine, and One In A Million, it really hit me. It was over. I was so sad that I wrote a holiday novella. 🙂 I couldn’t help myself! Merry Christmas, Baby (12/2) is my love letter to the Lucky Harbor readers (and a surprise revisit with one of my fave couples) who enjoyed the series and stuck with me for twelve books.  TWELVE books. I still can’t believe it. I’m not sure I’ll ever forget Jax, Ford, Sawyer, Ty, Matt, Josh, Luke, Jack, Ben, Sam, Cole, and Tanner…  Sob!  But I have plenty of new stories to tell, so no worries. I’m still writing the animal series and for those of you who read and loved Then Came You this past summer, Still The One comes out 4/15. And … drum roll please … I’ll have a brand new series coming out in 2015. The first book is written and I’m keeping it under my hat a little bit longer but let’s just say there’s some hot alpha brothers coming your way soon.

But as the snow begins to fall and the wind rages, he wonders whether he can make it back in time.

one in a million

As the brains behind wedding site TyingTheKnot.com, Callie sees it all: from the ring to the dress, the smiles . . . to the tears. It’s that last part that keeps her single and not looking. Getting left at the altar will do that to a girl. But when Callie returns to her old hometown, she finds that her sweet high school crush is sexier than ever. And he makes it hard to remember why she’s sworn off love . . .

Tanner is a deep-sea diver with a wild, adrenaline-junkie past-and now his teenage son is back in his life. How can Tanner be a role model when he’s still paying for his own mistakes? It’s hard enough that gorgeous Callie has appeared in town like a beautiful dream, challenging his best-laid plans to keep his heart on lockdown. Though there’s something about being around her again that makes him feel like he can be the man she-and his son-deserve. Little Lucky Harbor holds their past; can it hold a beautiful new future?

Jennifer’s Review of One in a Million

Review (4.5 Stars): It is so sad to say goodbye to a series and I loved my time visiting Lucky Harbor with each and every book in the series. In One in a Million, Callie is back in Lucky Harbor to check on her loving grandmother, Lucille, and spend time focusing on her internet wedding business. She has always had a crush on sexy Tanner, but after her previous relationship fell apart, she isn’t ready to have anyone romantically in her life.   Tanner remembers Callie from their high school days and finds himself wanting to spend more time with this sexy yet awkward young woman that he keeps running into at the bakery.  Maybe for Callie and Tanner a second chance at love is just what they need if they can just take that leap of faith.
I loved, loved, loved Callie and Tanner.  I instantly connected with Callie because she felt that she was awkward and socially inept because I have felt that way several times myself.  She was so smart, sweet and funny and I knew that Tanner would fall for her because he needed someone like Callie in his life after everything that he had been through.  One in a Million is a fun, sexy romance that is the perfect ending for this wonderful series.  I love Ms. Shalvis’s books and I can’t wait to read the next series that she comes out with next.
