I knew I was reading one of my new favorite books, and I will reread it for years to come, whenever I need a dose of small-town coziness and hard-bodied sea captains. she starts falling for the grumpy fisherman who is desperate to not only bed her but get her to fall deeeeeply in love with him. But I especially liked how they did it together and understood each other in a way that no one else could. Plus this is a small-town romance, which means that a lot of care went into developing the setting and the residents of the town/side characters.

The tenderness, vulnerability and heat I am always guaranteed with a Tessa Bailey book are the reasons she is one of my all-time favorite authors. Loved all the characters and the twists and turns in the plot - funny and sad all at the same time and I had n idea which way the story would turn next. It’s easy to dismiss someone like Piper, she's very much painted as an airhead, who indulges in the frivolities and luxuries of life but also chooses to use that as a coverup. Piper needs to be taught a lesson any 28 year old woman should have known long prior: aspirations and responsibility.She trespasses the Mondrian hotel to give an after party at the roof top pool, inviting thousands of people. The author has done a great job at describing the characters and the writing style is very witty throughout. She's determined to show her stepfather-and the hot, grumpy local-that she's more than a pretty face.

Set in picturesque coastal towns, these stories explore the themes of unexpected love, personal growth, and second chances.
