Sunscreen will not be the only thing found on the beach in Hot Fun in the Summertime by Chicki Brown. Drama! What else could happen when seven people from different walks of life vacation together in a beach house for two hot summer months? The women are the writer, video vixen, real estate agent/accountant, and the hairstylist/cosmetologist. It is through their voices the story is told. What a story it is!Aside from Jovita, who is helplessly in love, the other three women are content in living their life as is. Shontae has buried herself into the world she creates for her characters. Considering she writes romance, she should be the one who believes in love. Due to previous bad relationships she does not give real love a chance. Even with Linda, the one who is the most levelheaded of the bunch, she too has not given love very much thought since her divorce. She keeps herself busy with her real estate and accounting career. As for Linda's younger sister, Kinnik, men are good for one thing...keeping her in fancy designer clothes and paying her bills.While their time on the beach is supposed to be fun and relaxation, this summer will prove to be anything but. Eyes begin to open and things change fast for all the people in the beach house. Whether good or bad, this is a summer they will not forget is one thing they all can agree on.Chicki Brown has done it again. Hot Fun in the Summertime is the second e-book she has released and it is full of romance and drama. Ms. Brown takes great care in describing the setting. By the time I was finished with the book, I longed for the same beach house and the various other places the characters enjoyed. I coin the title and dub Ms. Brown, Queen of e-book romance. Romance readers will love this book.The author provided a copy of the e-book for review purposes.Jennifer CoissiereAPOOO BookClub
