Synopsis:
Do
you have the courage to know your past and fight for your future?
On
the beautiful Greek island of Santorini, Justin and Lucy consult with
Sophia, an elderly woman who is gifted in ways beyond the present and
physical. What they learn is helpful but incomplete. The story of
their past is hidden deeply within the Varangian Cross, and Sophia
must have it to fully understand the connection that Justin and Lucy
share. However, the cross is with its new owner in London and far too
valuable to be loaned out for such an implausible tale.
Disappointed,
they prepare to return to London and confront the challenges from
which they fled, resigned to leave the past behind, but the struggles
of the past seem determined to revisit them.
Justin
and Lucy are meant to be together. They are meant to know their past.
The cross is the key to unlocking their story, and the source of
their eternal and unbreakable bond.
Join
Justin and Lucy as they put together the pieces to uncover their epic
love story in Always
With You, the
trilogy’s poignant and passionate conclusion.

Copyright©
2019 Always With You
Kate
McBrien
Although
it wasn’t dark yet, Althea had already lit large candles inside
lanterns that were placed around the edge of the infinity pool and on
a few adjacent tables. Lucy stood near the low wall and gazed out at
the vast sea. She would never get tired of this view. Whether it was
sunrise or sunset, it was always spectacular. Tonight was no
exception. The sun was just beginning to set, and the sky was ablaze
with red at the horizon, shifting to orange above. The previously
light blue sky was becoming a deeper blue. In the background, the
Grateful Dead sang about standing on the moon, looking down at the
earth. And that’s what it felt like. She smiled when the singer
described one of the colors of the American flag as indigo. And there
it was yet again, their connection to indigo blue. It was another
tiny reference to the thread that connected her to Justin, but its
meaning resonated with her. The name of his band, the shared color of
their eyes, and the hue of the stone she had spent years studying.
There
were a few clouds at the horizon, and Lucy gasped when light from the
sun broke through the clouds in long beams of light. Where was
Justin? He should be with her to watch this incredible sunset.
The
Grateful Dead song ended and it was quiet for a few moments. Then the
opening notes of the vocal standard, “The Very Thought of You”
filled the air. Instead of the Billie Holiday version she was
familiar with, she heard Elvis Costello crooning.
The
sound of footsteps approaching made her smile, and a strong pair of
arms slipped around her waist. She leaned her head back into Justin’s
chest.
“You’re
stunning,” Justin whispered into her ear as he placed soft kisses
along the side of her neck. “Althea was just leaving when I came
looking for you.” He took the wine glass from her hand and took a
sip before setting it down.
“Hmm,”
Lucy sighed, as the sunset became even more dramatic.
“What
are you thinking, my love?”
“I
was thinking how much I love being here. It’s unimaginably
beautiful and special. We just arrived, and I never want to leave.”
“Turn
around,” Justin said in a deep voice.
Lucy
turned slowly in his arms.
“Aren’t
you handsome tonight?” She took him in, dragging her eyes from head
to toe.
“Just
for you,” he said, his arms wide. He wore white linen trousers with
a sky-blue, open-necked shirt. His skin glowed with a light tan from
the afternoon by the pool, enhancing his indigo eyes. Justin held her
gaze, and his expression became serious. “I feel the same about
being here with you.” His voice was rough and full of emotion.

is a fascinating premise. Nerd meets rocker and finds an instant

are fully fleshed out characters with their own full lives.” -

am in love with Justin and Lucy’s story because of their past-life

“Waiting

story is exciting and passionate, and the mystical/fantasy/paranormal
aspect just adds another interesting layer to their already wonderful
connection.” –
Live
Through Books Blog
“Book
two of the Indigo series is no less moving than the first one.
Kate amps up the romance and sex in this book over the first one. She
also gives Lucy some backbone that was very troubling to me in book
one…I personally can’t wait to see the finish of the story in the
next book and like many of the character changes she shows in this
one.” –
Wicked
Cool Flight
“Waiting
for You” is like an explosion of events and emotions in the Indigo
series. There are so many things going on and there is a twist there
that I would have never predicted. I was addicted to Lucy and
Justin’s relationship and I read every chapter looking forward for
the next! … Kate McBrien has done such a wonderful job with
“Waiting for You.” It has a lot of action, it has love and
passion and so many other emotions. I was reading and reading until
the wee hours of the night and that says something about this
author’s gifts.” –
