ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date May 27, 2025
Is there anything worse than getting dumped by your boyfriend in a very public, very humiliating way? How about agreeing to fake-date the jerk to help get his matchmaking mother off his back and make his new love interest jealous?
My friends and family don’t think so, but I’m getting Giants season tickets out of the deal. I can do anything for a short couple of months, right? However, when my ex’s sexier older brother, Delcan, moves back home, I realize I’m not that confident after all.
For five years, I’ve avoided Moose Village, New York, as much as possible for one reason: the girl I’ve crushed on since high school was already spoken for—by my brother. Now discharged from the military, I’m coming home, tentatively heartened by the fact that they’re no longer a couple. Except…it seems they are. But something’s different this time. Harper doesn’t seem as smitten as she was the first time around. Meanwhile, the chemistry sizzling between us is what I’ve dreamed of for years.
Even if I’m able to get to the bottom of the weird behavior between my brother and Harper, I’ve gone from one dangerous career to another. I’ve already got my anxious mother badgering me to quit. Will my career choice be too much for Harper, too?
I can only hope this feeling between the two of us is enough.
This Feeling is book two in the Moose Village series and can be read as a stand alone. The author does suggest reading the books in order for a better reading experience.

REVIEW: THIS FEELING is the second instalment in Kelly Elliott’s contemporary, adult MOOSE VILLAGE erotic, romance series. This is thirty-five year old, former US Marine turned police officer Declan Gallagher, and florist Harper Browning’s story line. THIS FEELING can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information is revealed where necessary.
Told from dual first person perspectives (Declan and Harper), THIS FEELING focuses on the return of Declan Gallagher from serving over seas. Five years earlier, Declan’s brother Sean asked out Declan’s secret crush Harper Browning, leaving Declan wondering if he ever had a chance. Fast forward to present day, Sean humiliated Harper with a very public break up, leaving Harper wondering where it all went wrong but when his mother begins matchmaking, Sean asks Harper for a favor, a fake relationship until his mother gives up. Declan Gallagher suspects something isn’t right, and within hours of his return , Declan begins a slow seduction of Harper Browning, hoping for his own happily ever after with the woman he never forgot.
The world building follows Harper Browning as she struggles with her ex’s scheme to deceive his mother, making his new love interest jealous in the process but with the return of Declan Gallagher pushes Harper to back down on the fake relationships, and in doing so, sets into motion a new relationship and love with our story line hero.
The relationship between Declan and Harper is one of mutual attraction but Sean’s need to deceive forces Harper into a lie. Declan is determined to seduce our story line heroine, and in doing so, set into motion the potential for a life-long commitment. The $ex scenes are erotic and intense without the use of over the top,sexually graphic language and text.
The secondary and supporting characters are quirky and charismatic. We are introduced to Declan’s brother Sean, their parents Maddie and Matt, Sean’s love interest Caroline; Harper’s sisters Candice, Amanda, Tina, and aunt Olivia; police officers Gavin, his brother James; attorney Kian Carter (This Moment 1), and toy shop owner Brystol Duggan.
THIS FEELING is a story of secrets and lies,family and friendships, relationships and love. The character driven premise is inviting and heartwarming -there is limited conflict; the characters are animated and dynamic; the romance is seductive and passionate.
