#ARCBookReview and #Giveaway: Sunsets at Seaside (Sweet with Heat: Seaside Summers #4) by Addison Cole
Sweet with Heat: Seaside Summers features a group of fun, flirty, and emotional friends who gather each summer at their Cape Cod cottages. They’re sassy, flawed, and so easy to relate to, you’ll be begging to enter their circle of friends! All books can be read as stand-alone novels.
Sunsets at Seaside by Addison Cole is the sweet edition of New York Times bestselling author Melissa Foster’s steamy romance novel Seaside Sunsets. The stories and characters remain the same and convey all of the passion you expect between two people in love, without any explicit scenes or harsh language.
In SUNSETS at SEASIDE…
Jessica Ayers has lived a sheltered life with little more than cello lessons and practices taking up her day. Now a member of the Boston Symphony Orchestra, she escapes the prim and proper symphony to vacation in the Seaside community in Wellfleet, Massachusetts, to determine if she is living life to the fullest or missing it altogether.
For the first time since developing the second largest search engine in the world, billionaire Jamie Reed is taking the summer off. He plans to work from the Cape and spend time with his elderly grandmother—and falling in love is not in his plans.
From the moment Jamie and Jessica meet, the attraction is white-hot. Once-overly-focused Jamie can think of little else than sweet, smart, and alluring Jessica, and Jessica discovers a side of herself she never knew existed. But when Jamie’s business encounters trouble and his attorney and best friend intervenes, he proves that the brown-haired beauty is too distracting for Jamie. To make matters worse, it appears that Jessica might not be who she says she is, turning Jamie’s life—and his heart—upside down. In a world where personal information is always one click away, Jamie must decide if he should trust his heart or watch the woman he loves walk away.
ARC Book Review: Sunsets at Seaside by Addison Cole
Sunsets at Seaside by Addison Cole is the fourth book in her Sweet with Heat: Seaside Summers series but despite being part of a series, it can be read as a standalone. However, I would recommend that you read the books in order so you understand the characters better.
This is Jamie Reed and Jessica Ayers’ story. We met Jamie in the previous book and he came out as a kind, reliable, geeky nerd who has designed a software rivaling Google and who loves his grandmother so much that he spends his holidays with her! I had been eager to read his story and I enjoyed this book.
Jessica is a professional musician and on vacation here in the Seaside community in Wellfleet, Massachusetts.
I enjoyed the encounters between Jessica and Jamie but at some places felt a bit uncomfortable too. This book claims to be a clean read and despite not having any explicit scenes, the tease and the innuendoes make this book and series not completely in the clean romance genre.
I enjoyed meeting Amy, Bella, Jenna, and Leanna along with their mates and several other characters from the previous books. It is always the vacation season in the Seaside community and every time I read these books, I feel like I am there on vacation myself.
The story is slow-paced as compared to the previous books and the romance believable. I loved Jamie and Jessica and they deserve to be happy.
All in all, Sunsets at Seaside by Addison Cole is entertaining and though not as stirring as the other books in this series, it will definitely make you feel on vacation. 4 stars out of 5 to it and recommended to romance readers. If you are looking from strictly clean and wholesome romances then this book and series are not for you.
I received an ARC from the author and the tour organizers and I am very thankful to them. The above is my honest and unbiased opinion and in no way influenced.
