Welcome back to Beachwood Bay! I couldn’t wait to enjoy another fantastic story full of gloriously rich detail and charismatic characters from this talented author. Melody Grace consistently delivers smooth, flawlessly executed novels with a balanced blend of sweet and spicy.Carina McKenzie needs to escape and the beachfront summer home is exactly what she needs. The perfect life she thought she was living turns out to be as shallow as a wading pool and Carina is finally ready to call it quits. This blonde beauty wasn’t expecting to slam into the cocky playboy from her sister’s wedding at her safe haven. At least he isn’t bad to look at… when he isn’t getting on her every last nerve. Carina’s spunky attitude captivated my full attention. She really came I greatly appreciate a strong female lead and definitely had my expectations met.We've met Garrett Sawyer in previous novels and know he is capable of charming the pants off anyone in his path. Carina is beyond frustrating and rather challenging but exactly what Garrett needs to light up his life. The last two years have been a terrible struggle and he is trying to find any slice of happiness. Garrett’s past sweeps in and casts a shadow over his light-hearted attitude. The women he entertains are easy, meaningless flings and his once booming business is sinking fast. I wanted to reach out and give this wounded man a huge hug. Luckily Carina showed up at the best time to help our handsome hero discover how much he’s been missing.The tension between Carina and Garrett radiates off the pages. Wow! It was truly stunning to read how well the author portrayed this aspect. It is obvious how badly they want to take the next step with one another but both are being held back by fear of their past experiences. Carina and Garrett compliment each other and I was pushing for them to take the leap. I devoured their dialogue and couldn’t get enough of their explosive combination.This amazing author has done it again! You all will be thanking her for providing another brilliant romance. I will never get enough of her sensational storylines that always leave me blissfully content. Every component is in place to give you the overall experience you crave. Enjoy!
