Synopsis:

THEIR LOVE WAS UNDENIABLE

Grace King knows two things for certain: she loves working at her grandmother’s café and she loves the hunky town sheriff. She always has. As she bakes him sweet treats, Grace fantasizes about helping him work up an appetite all night long. But whenever she thinks she’s finally getting somewhere, he whips out some excuse to escape. Growing up, he never looked twice at her. Now Grace won’t rest until she has Jax’s undivided attention.

Jaxson Anderson can’t deny that his best friend’s kid sister is the sexiest woman in Mirabelle, Florida. Unwilling to burden Grace with his painful past, Jax keeps the sassy blonde at arm’s length. Yet one heated kiss crumbles all of his carefully built defenses. But when a town secret surfaces, threatening to destroy everything they believe in, can the man who defended Grace from bullies as a child protect her now?

Review:

I loved the character of Grace however she has the patience of an angel as she waits for Jax to sift through all of his past history and come to the conclusion that she is the one for him. Jax on the other hand is a product of his negative upbringing and has to work through why he might be “good enough” for Grace. Although attracted to her since her birth he does not “get his romantic interest in her” and feels that he should only have brotherly feelings. Once committed though there is no doubt that he will love and protect her at all costs.

A light summer read that from the beginning keeps the reader turning pages. It has enough intrigue along with the romance to keep you engaged. It is a stand-alone book even though it is part 2 of a series. At no time does the reader feel that they have missed something.  The ending is complete and doesn’t leave the reader hanging however the rest of the characters are interesting enough, that I know for sure, I will read the other two books in the series to see how the other characters evolve.  I would definitely recommend this book to anyone who likes a good well written summer romance.
