4.5 starsTempted in the Tropics was fun, flirty, and romantic. The setting was great, the characters were likable, and I got to see Liza and Cole again! YAY!I liked Paige from the first book, so I was curious about getting to know her better. She was a great character. She's quirky, sweet, and generally a good person. She runs her own bakery and struggles to make ends meet. But, she makes it work, because the town relies on her. Not only does she provide delicious treats, but she really does cater to their dietary needs. I think that shows was a kind hearted person she really is.Then there's Lane. Lane's come into town to help his Uncle out at his practice. Lane is a doctor. After a scandal back at his old practice and a bad break-up, he's come to town hoping to get his life back on track. Paige wasn't part of his plan. Lane is a serious kind of guy, so I felt like Paige was a good fit for her. She's a lot more laid back and go with the flow. She helped him to ease up a bit and enjoy life.There a many things that brought this couple together, but where they fell in love was at Cole and Liza's wedding. Both Lane and Paige are friends of Liza's. Paige is also Liza's maid of honor and Lane is playing music for the wedding. So, as the wedding weekend gets underway, Lane and Paige end up exploring the island and each other. The setting was so romantic, it was the perfect backdrop to fall in love. I love the relationship they developed. Paige and Lane had good chemistry. They also shared some pretty funny moments together that had me laughing.Overall, I loved Tempted in the Tropics. I like seeing how the series is developing. I'm guessing that Trent's book will be next. He's a good friend of Liza and Paige's. He's looking for love and I have a feeling Liza and Paige may be able to help him find a special lady. I love the Bliss line. The books are great and it's introduced me to authors, such as Tracy March. If you like, fun and flirty romances, check this on out!Quotes:~"It sounds so delicious," she said. "And the way he says it with his Barry White voice and island accent makes it sound like food porn."-Loc 1428~"You look...delicious," he said, and hungrily kissed a trail up her neck to her lips. "You're officially my new favorite dessert."-Loc 1579~"I want you to know, the magic thing makes a lot more sense to me now." He traced his fingertips along her cheek and swept them beneath her chin. "It's not what you bake--it's you."-Loc 2576
