Love this series! Glad we finally got Alex’s book. I think I would have liked to know more about what happened to her in high school and her high school bf. As I was reading, I felt that Devon was going to play a bigger role but that didn’t come to happen. Also, I’m still curious about what happened with the book signing author, I get the impression like there’s more to the story there. Overall, I enjoyed the book and am looking forward to the next one!

Knee-jerk reaction to this book when I finished was exhaustion. The constant can't want you, want you, can't want you, want you between Alex and Aaron was tiresome. They are constantly fighting themselves and their emotions for each other. Add to that, the bad rap that Alex's sister, Jocelyn gets for caring about her and the whole situation with Felicity dating Aaron with Alex's prodding was a unsettling. However, the writing is excellent because I could not put the book down. I was so engrossed in the story and these characters. I became invested in their lives and their dramas. So, to have such a reaction to a book marks it as a great read. I recommend this book as well as this series. For a small island there's a lot going on. I look forward to reading Felicity's story next. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

This is book 3 in a series and it easily stands alone. It stars Alex who is a book store owner in her small town. Its not going well for her business and she just got a new landlord who is raising her rent. Turns out her new landlord is Aaron and this is very much a hate to love romance. Alex is a bit of a hothead and also is very stubborn and she gives it her all to hate Aaron and also to try and resist their very strong attraction. She does some things I do not agree with as I read the story but she really is fighting against falling for Aaron and she really tries so hard to hate him and resist him. Aaron is an uncle who has suffered a huge loss as his brother and sister in law have died and he is now responsible for his niece and nephew. I LOVED the teens and I could see why he really needed a family to give these two very lost kids. I just did not like how he treated Alex in this quest to find them a family. I felt that Alex and Aaron really deserved each other and they did things that I did not agree with but it also proved how right these two are for each other. This was a story that made me cry, laugh and pull my hair out at different times. I received a complimentary early release copy of this e-book from the author prior to release and am voluntarily leaving a review.
