I received a copy in return for an honest review.
No matter the length of a story, Caitlyn O'Leary gives you one you can't help but enjoy. And Cooper's Promise is no exception. Brenna and Cooper have known each other for years but Cooper is struggling to see Brenna as more than his best friends sister, or is he? In an effort to distance Brenna from his heart he hurts her. But with a stalker having her firmly in his sights, has Cooper's efforts to protect his heart cost him more than he ever anticipated? I really enjoyed Brenna. She went after the man she wanted. She uprooted her life and found a way to have the future she wanted while getting to know the man who held her heart. But she can't force Cooper to "see" her. She also refuses to beat a dead horse so after one too many painful slights, she decides to make a change. Can she believe in Cooper's change of heart once he finds out? Ms. O'Leary gives us a strong female character who makes her man work for it. Brenna may love him but she will not allow Cooper to blow hot and cold forever. This story is well written and allows us to see what makes Cooper tick. His past has reared it head in ways he doesn't expect but he is determined to fight not only his demons but also for the woman he loves. The journey that Ms. O'Leary takes us on is well articulated and believable. I thoroughly enjoyed seeing Brenna put Cooper through his paces and they fight for their happily ever after.

Brenna is an independent young woman who knows what she wants, and that's her big brother's best friend. Cooper has seen her as the little sister for too long and it's time he noticed that she's all grown up. When Brenna dates the wrong guy who becomes a possessive stalker, Cooper goes into protective mode. Still fighting obvious feelings for her, it's a game of cat and mouse all round. Will Brenna be hurt by the stalker? Will Cooper come to the rescue or lose her before he had her? Another exciting, dramatic tale by this author. I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Short but perfectly formed goodness!!
Brenna has been lusting after her big brothers friend, Cooper for years. She even moved college and across country to be near the dense oaf!! Cooper on the other hand surely loves her but feels she is way too young for an old man in his early 30s. He wants her to experience life first because he couldn't handle losing her is she suddenly wants out.
But when a failed date turns into an aggressive stalker Cooper goes into protective alpha mode, just what he does best. Her brother also weighs along with a few well known characters from earlier books. The stalker storyline is well written and very atmospheric. Brenna is a brilliant mix of feisty and naive and Cooper is so honourable he may hurt himself! Absolutely fantastic!!!
