Right Here Waiting by Susan May Warren & Michelle Sass Aleckson

Synopsis:~

Can she belong in his world?

Sled dog musher and vlogger Nick Dahlquist has simple goals-teach outdoor survival, run the Iditarod…and chat with online friend, LadyJHawk. Sure, he’s starting to like her more than he wants to admit, but has no capacity for an in-real-life relationship.

Chopper pilot Jae Washington has been an avid follower of Nick’s DogQuest vlog since inheriting a military working dog. Now, his online friendship has made her wonder if he could be more than a friend.

Getting a job on Deep Haven’s Crisis Response Team seems the perfect next step-so long as he doesn’t think she’s stalking him.

Nick is pretty sure petite Jae won’t last a moment in the brutal cold-a fear he shares with LadyJHawk. Meanwhile, Jae decides to keep her avatar a secret until she can prove to Nick she’s not a stalker. But as he trains her-and the chill between them begins to thaw-what if he discovers the truth she’s hiding?

When a blizzard strikes, and the CRT is deployed, more than just their relationship is at risk…

Cozy up to this delightful twist on You’ve Got Mail set in the snowy escape of Deep Haven.

Necee’s Take:~

“His smirk just about undid her. He was too cute for his own good.”

Nick finally gets his happy ending in this final release from the Deep Haven collection. Initially, I wasn’t sure about the plot line. However, the fantastic writing really drew these totally different characters together in Right Here Waiting. The imagery was so well written that I could picture the scenery, the adventures in wilderness survival, and of course, the dog mushing scenarios. I am looking forward to future books by this writer as I feel Aleckson has really grown through this series.

“You should be with someone who makes you stronger, someone who brings out the best in you.”

I absolutely loved the back and forth between Nick and Jae. They definitely brought out the best in each other. Their relationship and spiritual growth really added to the story. They both had their individual hurdles to overcome to really have a positive relationship, so that was fun to watch play out. Overall, a wonderful ending to this series with strong characters and glimpses from prior characters as well. It was especially interesting learning about wilderness survival techniques, as well as being a female veteran and CRT pilot. The spiritual thread of needing others was beautiful, too.

“And for what it’s worth whatever the position is, if it’s your dream job, you should go all in. Burn the ships! You’ve got this.”

I highly recommend this book for Susan May Warren fans and those who love small town romance with adventure.

I was given a copy of this book by the publisher. All opinions are my own and are given honestly.
