My Rating: ★★★★
Synopsis:
As the co-owner of Bayside Resorts, Rick Savage has a fabulous job working with his best friends and brother, and a thriving business in Washington, DC, which he’ll be returning to at the end of the summer. Spending time with his family is great, but being back on Cape Cod has unearthed painful memories. When sweet, smart, and overly cautious Desiree Cleary moves in next door, Rick is drawn to the sexy preschool teacher, and she just might prove to be the perfect distraction. Running an art gallery was not in preschool teacher Desiree Cleary’s plans, but after being tricked into coming to her impetuous, unreliable mother’s aid, she’s stuck spending the summer with the badass half-sister she barely knows and a misbehaving dog. If that’s not frustrating enough, she can’t escape the sparks igniting with her strikingly handsome and pushy neighbor, Rick, who makes all her warning bells go off. Passion ignites as Desiree and Rick spend long summer nights sharing heartfelt confessions and steamy kisses. For the first time in years Rick is enjoying life again instead of hiding behind mounds of work miles away from his family. Desiree has touched him in a way that makes him want to slow down. Only slowing down means dealing with his demons, and he isn’t sure who he’ll be when he comes out the other side.
My Thoughts:
Funny, sweet and sensual… a delightful love story.
Bayside Desires is a well written book that will having you laughing while hoping that the couple gets their happily ever after. One intrusive mother and a determined dog helped to pull Desiree and Rick together.
The story is full of romance and passion. The characters are easy to like and connect with. You can’t help but fall in love with the characters in the book. Desiree is a sweet, loving and somewhat unexperienced or uptight woman. Toss in Rick who is playful and romantic. The two characters mesh well together and bring out the best in each other.
This was another book from Melissa Foster that was hard to put down. Melissa is a very talented author that tells remarkable stories that captivate you and keep your attention from the first page to the last page. Definitely an author that you will want to keep on your go-to list. If you enjoy reading a funny and sweet book, then you will enjoy this book. A truly delightful read.
