I was fortunate enough to receive two advanced copies of Mia’s books and both were just outstanding! These are must reads!

This book was the perfect way to redeem Travis Hale. I knew there had to be more from him and I was hoping his story would be as good as this book was. I loved meeting new characters in Pelion and seeing familiar ones again. I loved the small town feel of both this book and Archer’s Voice and think this was the perfect continuation of that story. I want to thank NetGalley and SOURCEBOOKS Bloom Books for the arc in exchange for an honest review.

Well, you win some, you lose some, right?! I’m not sure what I’m missing here, maybe since I haven’t read Archer’s Voice and apparently characters cross-over? I didn’t feel a large character arc happening here with our main-man Travis. Yes he has some issues to resolve, but he and Haven, his love interest are pretty boring and this book dragggggggged on. I kept waiting for a big romance to develop, but it didn’t. Our heroine pines for another guy for a bit longer than I felt necessary, which in turn didn’t make for a deep connection with our hero. It was fine, but nothing special. 2.5 ⭐️

Thank you NetGalley, and to the publisher for this advanced copy for my unbiased review.

Great redemption novel! This is truly a villain turns into hero novel where you finally get the background on Travis. Travis is Archer's "cousin" from Archer's voice. But the book centers around Haven and Travis meeting. Haven spends the majority of her time wanting another guy. Travis is healing from getting cheated on by his ex girlfriend. I liked all the layers to the characters and the banter.

This story was so amazingly beautiful and funny. I was crying and dying with the romance and just wow!!! This friends to lovers romance was one that I won't soon forget and it makes me want to read Archer's Voice all over again. This is a must read!!

This is my first Mia Sheridan book. What intrigued me from page 1 was that the first four chapters were from Travis’s point of view .

This intrigued me. I didn’t read Archer’s Voice so I didn’t know what to expect. But I’ve always liked the bad boy turned good guy trope, and here it is, in spades!

Although this was a follow up to Mia’s first book it’s a standalone, and there was enough background that I could follow the story. Haven and her brother Easton are in town for the summer, and Easton, well, let’s just say he misbehaves in a big way. One wouldn’t expect what happened to generate happy thoughts and good feelings between Travis and Haven, but love will always find a way.

The story has got me hooked: I’m going to track down Archer’s Voice and I’m certainly looking forward to the next book, I sure hope it’s Easton’s story!

This book was a great standalone as well as sequel. I love the characters and the writing. The characters were not only likable but they felt real. The town and people felt so alive. The love story was so sweet. Great read!

I was so excited to see a new title from Mia Sheridan but then realized that it is not new, just a new cover LOL but i was still excited! As with everyone, I loved Archers Voice so was excited to read more from this author. I adored Travis' story and love the new cover!

A beautiful small town romance sees two people with tragic pasts full of heartbreak find love despite their best intentions to avoid attachments at all costs. Heartbreak and a parental abandonment plague Haven's every step as she runs from her past, and despite Travis's new relationship with his brother and Bree, he has still not moved on from what happened all those years ago. A poignant story of loss and the healing power of love and forgiveness.

I decided to read Archer's Voice before reading Travis because I didn't want to miss anything about Travis's character. I loved Archer's Voice and therefore didn't have a high opinion of Travis. He did redeem himself by the end of his own story. Travis was a sweet romance, but it didn't give the same kind of emotion that Archer's Voice illicited in me. I wanted Archer to find the partially burnt remains of the papers that Travis burned in the fire pit. I was sad that Travis had to sacrifice so much to find happiness. I'm glad that he did finally find that happiness, though. Overall, it was a very good romance, it just wasn't to the level of Archer's Voice.

Thank you NetGalley and Sourcebooks bloom books for this arc.

After finishing up Archer’s Voice, I was wary about reading Travis’ story. I didn’t see how I would want to read about a bully who didn’t seem to have many redeeming characteristics, but I am glad I was able to read about Travis’ redemption. The character growth throughout this novel had be on his side rooting for him to succeed. This was a wonderful follow up and a nice glimpse into how some of of favorite characters in Pelion are doing.

If you liked Archer’s Voice you’ll definitely like Travis! Such a good book with second chances and seeing Travis and Haven’s growth. Loved that we were able to see part of Archers life with Bree and how cute they are! Really enjoyed the whole book, Mia Sheridan does it again.

When it comes to small town books Archer’s Voice by Mia Sheridan is one of the best I have ever read. And in Archer’s Voice Travis Hale is an obnoxious, despicable person. So when I had the chance to visit Pelion, Maine again by reading Travis – the follow up to Archer’s Voice, which takes place about eight years after the first book – I was really intrigued to see where the story would go and how Travis might redeem himself. And he did! Oh, how my heart ached for the seven-year-old Travis, and hearing his thoughts and his side of the story about everything was eye-opening and heartbreaking. The message of how hard but important it is to take responsibility for your actions came across really well and showed that people really can change. Also, I was really happy to get glimpses into the lives of Archer and Bree and their children – baby Averie was just the cutest – and I am so happy that Travis finally made things right with Archer.

Thank you so much Mia Sheridan and Bloom Books for gifting me a copy to review – the new cover is absolutely gorgeous!

I swear Mia can’t write a bad story! I’m convinced she just can’t do it! Everything she writes is pure magic.
Travis by Mia Sheridan left in speechless with the deep meaningful story, and of course has me falling in love with everything inside!
Sheridan delivered this book with complete perfection.
The way she creates her characters is just captivating.
They were so real and alive which left me wanting more of them.
I love Sheridan’s character development and plot arcs.
Another outstanding story and I can’t wait to read her next one!

"I received a complimentary copy of this book. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own."

Thank You NetGalley and Bloom Books for your generosity and gifting me a copy of this amazing eARC!

Mia Sheridan is one of my instant buy authors. She can absolutely do no wrong and seeing this book come out was like a gift.

Archer's Voice is one of my all time favorite books like to the point that I have been rereading it once or twice a year since it was introduced to me. The fact that Travis was able to continue on with his story and we were able to see all of the characters from Archer's Voice again was absolutely amazing. I love Travis and I love that we got to hear his story. I feel like he grew so much during Archer's Voice and it just continued to get better during Travis.

I love his and Haven's story! I will definitely be adding this one to my comfort read rotation

The banter between Haven and Travis was top tier. It got a little melodramatic towards the end but was overall a solid addition to Mia Sheridan’s Pelion series!

A really cute small town romance. An anti hero that’s finding his way. A loving girl that find herself in a town she wants to belong to but everything in her wants her to keep running. The forced proximity, the banter, the friends turned fwb turned to forever was done so well! the love that bloomed between Travis and Haven was sensational. I did feel that the ending was a little rushed and would have loved to see some more groveling.

Overall a charming small town romance! I hope to read a book about Easton!

I wasn't sure how I'd feel about this book, specifically the character of Travis, after recently finishing Archer's Voice. I really did love this book though and the message that people do change, they do make mistakes and they can come back from those mistakes (given the opportunity to do so). Nothing is more enjoyable than watching a strong woman knock a man with an ego onto his butt out of nowhere. Haven seemed to be the perect type of woman to drive into Travis' life and make him see life in a new light. Their stories apart were heartbreaking and watching their lives intertwine became healing after the heartbreak. I also loved that there were glimpses of Archer and Bree. Overall, a great series to pick up - emotion and love, with a bit of tragedy make these characters memorable.

3 Stars Travis by Mia Sheridan is a follow-up (but not a sequel) to her novel Archer’s Voice. I absolutely loved Archer’s Voice (it’s a 5 star read for me) and had high expectations for this book because of that, but it fell a bit short.

8 years after the events of Archer’s Voice, Archer’s half-brother Travis Hale is the chief of police in his small hometown of Pelion, Maine. Travis seems to have become a somewhat better person since partially severing ties with his mother when he made her leave town for the harm she had done to Archer and Bree. Travis’s relationship with Archer has improved, though they’ve never talked about what happened in their past or how Travis used to treat Archer, and Travis is thinking of settling down soon with his girlfriend, Phoebe. That is, until he walks in on Phoebe cheating on him. After that, Travis swears off women for the time being. Until he keeps running into Haven Torres, a nomadic plant lover who is in Pelion for the summer and working at the smoothie bar at the country club in the neighboring town. Luckily for Travis’s promise to himself, Haven isn’t even his type and she has a crush on Gage Buchanan, who seems perfect in every way. Travis and Haven become unlikely friends, with him helping her catch Gage’s attention. Soon their simple friendship turns into something more complicated.

Like I said, I was a bit disappointed in this one. After the high stakes and drama in Archer’s Voice, I had high expectations for the plot in Travis, but ultimately, it was pretty low-stakes and the book felt long for there not to be as much to the plot as there was in Archer’s Voice. That being said, it’s not a bad book by any means, I think my expectations were just set too high. I still recommend this one, especially if you want more glimpses of Archer and Bree. I didn’t expect to like Travis after his actions in Archer’s Voice, but Mia Sheridan did a great job with his redemption arc and character growth. His story was just right for what his character needed to do to make things right with himself and with his brother.

I really love Archer's Voice and I was excited to read this.
This book is about Travis's redemption story and Mia Sheridan has done it well!. I loved the interaction between Travis and his nephews and niece. My absolute favorite scene was the bro-time it was heartwarming and brought a 'real' closure to their past. Haven was like a breath of fresh air to Travis, she made him realize what love is. They together learned how to forgive others especially themselves. This has been a very cozy romance read, if you enjoyed Archer's Voice as I did, you'll like this one too!

Thank you to NetGalley and SOURCEBOOKS Bloom Books for the eARC in exchange for an honest review.
