Blog Tour: "Charmed Spirits" by Carrie Ann Ryan
Today we have Carrie Ann Ryan with us on the blog talking about her newest release and series Charmed Spirits, the first in her new Holiday, Montana series.
Introducing
the Cooper Brothers
I love starting a new series
and finding a new family to love—particularly when that family includes five
hunky, independent, swoon-worthy men. Uh huh, I’m talking about the Cooper
brothers. You’ll meet each of these boys—no, men—in my Holiday, Montana series.
What is my Holiday, Montana
series you ask? Well, in the small Montana town of Holiday, the myths of our
holiday memories aren’t that of fiction. Yep, make believe is real and the
Cooper brothers are right in the middle. Throughout the series, you’ll meet
witches, elves, cupids, leprechauns, and well…a bit more. You’ll just have to
read and see.
But what I really want to do
here is let y’all know about the Cooper brothers. These handsome men are as
tight a crew as any brethren and only have themselves to depend on. I thought
I’d introduce you to them now and you can meet them more in their own books in
the Holiday, Montana series.
Matt Cooper is the hero of Charmed Spirits and is the youngest of
them all at thirty. He owns the hardware store in town and as a teenager was in
love with Jordan Cross—the town witch and outcast. He’s loved her all this
time, yet he thought he’d long lost that. He’s a laid back guy, always there
for those who need him. Some may even call him a Beta, but only where it
counts. Because believe me, and Jordan, he’s Alpha when it’s needed. He also
has a secret or two, but I’m not telling.
Justin Cooper is school
principal and ex-bad boy of the Cooper clan. He’s always been the one that did
what he wanted, when he wanted. But after an accident as a teen, he changed
gears a bit and now cares more about others than himself. He may just need to
meet someone else to help him realize that he’s more than just the ex-bad boy
and has something more to give than just his time.
Tyler Cooper is the town
sheriff and ladies’ man. He may be the love ‘em and leave ‘em type, but he’s up
front about it. He’s not callous in his attentions, but the ladies that may
fall for him knew the score to begin with. Though there may be a woman in town
that could change all that, he’s sworn to protect the town rather than his
heart.
Brayden Cooper is the town
mechanic and the quiet one of the family. Though he’ll laugh and joke with his
brothers, no one really knows quite who he is. He is, however, the man who will
always be there for anyone. Especially a certain single-mother who is in desperate
need of help.
Jackson Cooper is the town
dentist and has the worst temper of the bunch. No one really knows why he’s so
angry, but there has to be a reason. Plus, even though the evidence is mounting
in the town that magic exists, it still seems like nonsense to him. Magic can’t
exist in his opinion, because if it did….things would have been different.
Well, those are my Cooper men.
What do y’all think? I hope you guys get a chance to meet these men in their
own books. Each book will be coming out for each holiday from now until June.
So not only will the magic happen, you’ll get to meet the Coopers quickly. I
hope you guys get a chance to enjoy the first book, Charmed Spirits, as well. Thank you so much!!

Charmed Spirits
Holiday, Montana
Book 1
Jordan Cross has returned to Holiday,
Montana after eleven long years to clear out her late aunt’s house, put it on
the market, and figure out what she wants to do with the rest of her life.
Soon, she finds herself facing the town that turned its back on her because she
was different. Because being labeled a witch in a small town didn’t earn her
many friends...especially when it wasn't a lie.
Matt Cooper has lived in Holiday his
whole life. He's perfectly content being a bachelor alongside his four single
brothers in a very small town. After all, the only woman he'd ever loved ran out
on him without a goodbye. But now Jordan’s back and just as bewitching as ever.
Can they rekindle their romance with a town set against them?
Warning: Contains an intelligent, sexy
witch with an attitude and drop-dead gorgeous man who likes to work with his
hands, holds a secret that might scare someone, and really, really, likes table tops for certain
activities. Enough said.

Excerpt:
“Have you seen the house yet?”
Matt asked, his brows furrowed.
She shook her head and took her
Coke and gum back with a small smile to Mr. Clancy. “Not yet. I was on my way
over there. I just wanted to stop by for a drink.” She squared her shoulders
and started toward the exit.
“You might find more than you
bargained for if you want to get out quick.”
Jordan stopped and pivoted
toward him. “Why? It should only take a few days to clean it out then slap on
some paint, right?”
Matt shook his head and put his
thumbs in his belt loops—too sexy. “Your grandmother got real sick at the end,
and none of us knew.” Sadness washed over his face, and Jordan held back any
similar feelings. “It may take more than you anticipated to get it ready.”
She let out a sigh and closed
her eyes, counting to ten. “Then I’ll just have to deal with it, won’t I? I’m
here for the duration in any case.” After all, she’d quit her PR job, a job
that she hated, so she could find
herself. God, how pathetic did that sound?
“Well, if you need anything,
I’m here. And I bet my brothers would help out in a second.”
Jordan nodded, a smile forming.
Damn those helpful, sexy Cooper brothers. “Thanks, if I need anything, I’ll
holler. But I hope to do most of it on my own.”
