A stake-out at a trafficker way-station ends with Special Agent Jennifer Nash placed on forced leave. Until a government insider offers her a chance at redemption.

All she has to do is accompany an elite Louisiana SWAT team on a takedown mission. But as she's shuttled by boat into the Atchafalaya Basin, she believes some of the unit might be compromised.
The raid ends in disaster. And the police find themselves outnumbered in the middle of a criminal operation, with a connected Cajun community and ruthless cartel members determined to put them down at all costs.

Fels Like the First Time: Book Campaign and Giveaway

 

FEELS LIKE THE FIRST TIME

By Kimberly Packard


Romance, Time-Slip, RomCom

Publisher: Abalos Publishing

Publication Date: 16 June 2026



SYNOPSIS




Blink and your life’s halfway over. What if that happens literally?


College party girl Emily Murray bounces through majors and boys until an ill-advised art major leads her to a rebellious relationship with an aspiring rock star. When her father cuts off the college fund—and her boyfriend ditches her to chase a record deal—Emily spirals, hard.


One shaved head and emotional black out later, she wakes up thirty years in the future, living a life she doesn’t recognize as a successful therapist and engaged to a total stranger.


With no apparent way to rewind the clock, Emily scrambles to make sense of her new reality. With a wedding date looming and a competitive therapist threatening her fragile career, Emily is forced to question: Was this really the future she was meant for?


Witty, sharp and unexpectedly heartwarming, Feels Like the First Time, the highly anticipated follow up to This Time Around, is a love letter to our younger selves, reminding us that even when we feel lost, we often end up exactly where we need to be.
