About HOPE RESTORED
The Gallagher Brothers series from NYT Bestselling Author Carrie Ann Ryan concludes with the final brother who thought he had everything to look forward to, and the one woman who can handle him.
Life isn’t worth living if you don’t fight to live. That’s what Murphy Gallagher learned at a young age when cancer ravaged his body not once, but twice. Over the course of his survival, he lost his parents and his childhood, but he’s been healthy for years and has become a man he hopes his family is proud of. But when his world tilts on its axis yet again, he’ll have to learn what it means to fight not only the unknown but also his attraction to his best friend.
Tessa Stone works hard and plays harder. She’s spent her life trying to figure out who she is in the present rather than looking back. Yet when she’s forced into close proximity with Murphy, she’ll have to not only be his rock but learn how to relax enough to maybe let him be hers, as well. But seduction doesn’t stop when the world seems to, and close encounters of the naked kind might just be the first step in something much more complicated than either of them bargained for. Life, though, is for living, after all.

Tessa swallowed hard, doing her best to keep her emotions in
check. Murphy did not need another person overreacting or acting too emotional.
He needed his flirty friend, and that was just who she’d be.
“Reading? Oh, dear. That sounds tough. Maybe you should get
someone to read it to you. Maybe Rowan?”
“You can’t see me, but I’m flipping you off right now.”
“Good to know you still have your sense of humor. Just
trying to cheer you up, you know? I’d try phone sex, but I don’t want to
overstimulate you.”
She froze, her eyes going wide. What the fuck, Tessa?
Murphy laughed hard into the phone, and she relaxed. “You
know, you’re the first person to make me laugh since this weekend. So, thank
you.” He yawned, and she pressed her lips together, trying not to think about
why he’d be so tired already. “I should get some sleep.”
She closed her eyes, finding her strength. “I guess I
should, too. Just… Murphy? If you need me, I’m here. And not just for jokes
about sex, okay?”
He was silent a bit longer, and she was afraid she’d
overstepped again. “Thanks, Tessa. And, yeah, once I know more, I’ll be sure to
keep youin the loop. I’ve beaten shit like this— worse than this— before, you
know? Not gonna let it get me down.”
“Hell yeah.”
Neither of them sounded too convinced.
They hung up soon after that, and she stared down at her
phone, wondering what on earth she was going to do. She was only an admin in
the financial department of the hospital. Every other person around Murphy had
more experience and ways to help than she did.
But she’d do what she could because this was Murphy, and he
deserved to live.
Not only that, but he deserved to live.
And if all she could do was make him laugh when the world
seemed to fall apart around them, then that’s what she’d do.
