About this ebook

After my parents died everything about my life changed.

I buried myself in my work. It was easier…

…but then the woman at the local café seemed determined to grab my attention.

Angie was beautiful, especially the cute drop of her head the moment I looked into her stunning honey-colored eyes.

All of that was just a distraction though. I had a farm to run…

…until the day my past slammed into me.

I wasn’t prepared for what happened next.

Crystal Shores is a small-town romance series with recipes made by the characters in the back of the book.

Sweet and Gentle! Don't get me wrong, this is a fun and sexy book. But nothing happens in a snap. Not that I'm complaining! This story, with these characters, written any other way would just be awkward. Angie has had a crush on Milo 14 years!! But really, he just became her ideal. Losing her parents devastated Angie, so she returned to the one place that made her happy, even though she'd only spent a year there. Now, four years later, she's living in her old home and still crushing on Milo. Her heart can't take any more turmoil so it's better to dream than be rejected. Milo has lost his parents, too, and is now running the family farm. He's working to avoid living, but something about Angie is drawing him in, sparking a memory of a girl who worked for his family one summer. I love that Milo finally remembers Angie, and that's all it takes for their journey to start. I love that they take their time, healing together, slowly building on the past for the future. This is a very sweet, slow paced story, that will warm your heart and bring a smile to your face. Happy Reading!!

Wonderful storyline, amazing characters and funny cat names. Angie has worked at the Crystal Shores Cafe as a waitress for four years. When she was fourteen she worked at the Davis Family Farm and had a crush on Milo. She named her two cats after her two favorite vegetables Broccoli and Cauliflower that were grown on the farm. Milo now owns his family's farm since both his parents are deceased. His mom use to run the produce stand but they haven't had one since her death. Angie and Milo have steamy chemistry and them getting to know each other was fantastic. The storyline was entertaining, both characters were well written and kept me turning the pages.

This time, their mutual chemistry won't be denied. Milo is outgoing, friendly and determined when it comes to Angie. She has a compassionate personality but a little more reserved. Once their whirlwind of attraction rekindles they are very decisive and upfront. Sensual and romantic second chance, which I enjoyed reading. There's no place like Crystal Shores.

About the author

Terra loves snuggling with her cat and relaxing with her amazing hubby. A steamy romance book is never far from her grasp, and 2:00 a.m. seems to be the sweet spot to finally put a book down and sleep. She laughs loudly, smiles often, is a bit of a klutz, and tries to always find the positive in everything.


She first started writing contemporary romance in the beginning of her writing career. Then her darker side begged to have a voice. Now Terra and T.M. work as a team bringing you a little bit of everything. 


Terra Kelly writes small-town romance stories that will make you laugh, cry, and crave sweets.


T.M. Kelly sticks to the grittier side of romance with strong female heroines.


Each book will share inspiration for recipes. Some of the recipes are shared in the back of the books. If you can’t find a recipe it could be on their food blog, Café Terra.


Terra Kelly and T.M. Kelly are connected on social. It’s more fun working as a team.
