5 STARS:
"Stormy Glenn’s latest release, "A Promise Given," is the much awaited follow
up to "A Promise Kept." The story of Alec and Cooper picks up six months after
the end of the first story and will keep your interest until the last page.
The premise of this story is a good one, the mystery surrounding a recent
murder holds the reader’s attention until the end, it brings back many
favorites from the first story, and it introduces some new characters as
well...This story is full of wonderful secondary characters as well, many of
whom are screaming for their own stories. If you visit the author’s group site
you will see that everyone has their own wish for who will be next. Fans of
this author and series know however that it does not matter who comes next as
the story is sure to be terrific." -- Lydia,

5 CUPS:
"A Promise Given lived up to all my expectations! I loved getting to revisit
Cooper, Alec, Mason and Jack again in this sequel. The premise of this story
rocks and just keeps you on the edge of your seat until you’ve read the final
page. Ms. Glenn does a great job of explaining the BDSM clubs and what they
are really like. It was obvious that the proper research was done ahead of
time, which in my mind is key with any good book. Cooper’s reaction to Alec
and his fear of being hurt again is very realistically portrayed. I always
love how Ms. Glenn creates characters because they are real not just cookie
cutter types. The lovemaking between Cooper and Alec is explosive and helps to
bind these two back together, as well as, helps to repair old wounds. This is
one love story you simply have to read to believe. In my opinion it is one of
Ms. Glenn’s best. Be sure and get your copy of both A Promise Kept and A
Promise Given because they are well worth it!" -- Regina, Coffee Time Romance & More
5 NYMPHS:
"When I discovered Ms. Glenn was working on a sequel to A Promise Kept,
I was thrilled and filled with hopeful expectation, and I have to say I wasn’t
disappointed. This newest story is everything I hoped for and more. It’s
well-written with a realistic plot that begs to be read, has vivid
descriptions that pull the reader deeper into the story and delightful
characters." -- Mystical Nymph,

5 HEARTS: “I love the way
Stormy can put together a book that not only fascinates you but draws you
in. I had a blast reading this and look forward to reading more by one of
my favorite authors… I can honestly tell you that this is going to be one
of those types of series. One that I will have to read over and over. I
love the way all the feelings they felt was involved in this story. It was
the perfect story for me and I loved it. I can’t wait to read the next
story. When Stormy puts out a book I am usually there to eat them up.
Trust me it will keep you laughing, crying, loving and having fun.” –

4.5 STARS:
"Cooper was a delightful part of A Promise Kept and deserves his own
story. Stormy Glenn gives us that story in a way that cannot be forgotten.
These two are perfect together but have some many issues that need to be
resolved. They can only do this together, especially when fate has a way of
making resolutions almost impossible. The twist and turns and surprises in A
Promise Given make for a promise on the part of Stormy Glenn – extreme
enjoyment of another excellent story." -- Elise Lyn,
Sensual Reads.
4 ANGELS:
"I eagerly looked forward to reading the follow up to A Promise Kept.
A Promise Given is a pretty decent mystery but more importantly it's a
great story of love and healing. Cooper has lost so much of himself from his
kidnapping and sadistic torture that Alec's reappearance is even harder for
him to face. He is not at his strongest emotionally and the loss of Alec left
a void that has never been filled. The angst and tension that I felt while the
two men worked through their issues left me tense and drained at times. I
wanted so hard for them to find a path through their pain and to find
happiness...I have my fingers crossed on who the characters might be in a
future book in the series and can't wait to see if they get their own story."

3.75 STARS:
"A Promise Given was very well written and it kept me on the edge of my seat
waiting to find out who the killer was and what was really going on. There was
quite a twist at the end of the book that had me gasping in shock and waiting
to see what would happen next. The tension between Alec and Cooper was enough
to make a good story but with the murder mystery and the twist at the end it
was just wow...I would highly recommend this sequel to "A Promise Kept". It's
one I'll keep in my keeper file and reread. Thanks Stormy for another good
read that kept me on the edge of my seat." -- Sandra,
Night Owl Reviews
"It’s fitting that Alec has to work to
win back Cooper’s affections. When his reasons for leaving are revealed, I
felt bad for Alec then too. The dynamics of their relationship changes
drastically and suddenly when Cooper is faced with his nightmares, Alec
may use the situation to his advantage, but not in a malicious way. Alec
and Cooper‘s sex appeal comes from the tangible emotional connection they
share and the really hot sex they have. I love how the parameters they set
up for their relationship last what seems like 10 seconds because they
just love each other and need each other too much to wait. A Promise
Given is the moving and exciting sequel to A Promise Kept."
