Summary

What happens when friends become lovers? Not what a wedding planner plans in a novel of unexpected romance by New York Times bestselling author Jennifer Probst。

Taylor Sunshine and Pierce Powers vowed to keep things platonic。 They already have the best of each other: loyalty, friendship, and trust。 Why ruin the perfect relationship? That kind of forever love isn’t in the picture anyway for a restless, aspiring artist like Taylor。 Her sights are set beyond the horizon of Cape May and Sunshine Bridal。

The oceanfront hometown is part of Pierce’s heart—just like Taylor is。 And it breaks at the thought of her leaving。 As her closest friend since high school, he supports her desires, even if she must follow them away from Cape May。 But when their defenses are down, all it takes is one impulsive, vulnerable night to change all the rules。

From old friends to overnight lovers, they make a new pact: explore a summer fling, no strings attached。 But as the nights heat up and their connection grows deeper, hard choices must be faced。 As summer nears its end, will Taylor and Pierce fulfill their individual dreams? Or are new dreams just beginning to come true?

Pierce and Taylor aren't "just friends。" They're the best of friends, and have been forever。 When an attraction develops, they decide to explore it and let it run its course—just until Taylor leaves for Paris at the end of the summer。 Her dream is to become a full-time artist, and that dream is finally coming true。 But is there a way for Pierce to fit into her new life? This started out a little slow for me。 For the first quarter of the novel, it doesn't feel like there's much at stake。 That cha Pierce and Taylor aren't "just friends。" They're the best of friends, and have been forever。 When an attraction develops, they decide to explore it and let it run its course—just until Taylor leaves for Paris at the end of the summer。 Her dream is to become a full-time artist, and that dream is finally coming true。 But is there a way for Pierce to fit into her new life?

The story is original and cute。 Although not very believable。 So that is why you can have trouble connecting tothe characters。 In all, three and a half stars from me and a special thank you to Net galley for providing the arc。• • •When a cowboy loves a woman-Jennie Marts What can I say? Creedence just kind of grows on you。 So, when I saw another one of the Creedence Horse Rescue series on Net galley, I just did a happy dance。(In my mind, of course, wouldn't want anyone to catch me dancing with my e-reader, LOL)。 After we met Bryn in A cowboy state of mind, we already learned that Bryn collects strays。 And she doesn't stop at animals。 She also has taken Elle under her wing。Elle has a hard time to start living again, after her husband died。 She finds some happiness again in helping out Bryn with all her animals。 And when a kitchen fire leaves her homeless for the next few weeks, she finds herself on a couch at Bryn's。Elle gets regular visits from Mandy, the 10-year old daughter of the hot veterinarian Brody, who seems to take a liking to both Elle as the animals at the Heaven can wait Rescue。 Brody has been raising Mandy on his own, since his wife died over cancer 5 years ago。 Having experienced the pain the loss has cost him, and his beautiful daughter, has made him reluctant to even start dating again。 But he recognizes the pain on Elle and they both enjoy spending time together。 And although they both are scared to fall in love again, the seem to can't stop it from happening。 Add in a spunky 10-year old and some hilarious animals, who have been rescued by Bryn and you have some great ingredients for a cozy read。 Heartwarming, cute and funny, with some tears along the way。 What a wonderful read。Five out of five stars from me and a special thank you to Net galley for providing the arc。• • •Anatomy of a Player - Cindi Madsen What I like about Cindi's books is that they are all very different, yet very cute and funny。So, when Anatomy of a Player was available on Netgalley, I grabbed it。 And although it is part of the Taking shots series, you can easily read it as a standalone。We meet Whitney, who has sworn of players, after having her heart broken again。 So, she decides to focus on her study and on her new job at the college newspaper。 Her first assignment is to expose how sport jocks receive all different kind of privileges, while studying。 Therefore, she goes 'undercover' as a sports reporter for the local hockey team。 Because those hot as hell hockey players are the biggest players of the campus。 And their main star Hudson Decker certainly is the poster child of a player with a capital 'P' 。 So Whitney decides to find out the Anatomy of a Player to warn other girls how to recognize a player and to keep them at bay。 She didn't realize however, that this would turn out to be more difficult than expected。 Because beneath the cocky exterior, Hudson turns out to be a very cute and kind guy。 Hudson feels the pressure of keeping up his grades, to ensure his sport scholarship。 Without it, he can kiss college goodbye, since he will not be able to pay for his tuition。 So, between hockey and learning, he doesn't really have time for a distraction。 But their new sports reporter is an enigma。 A brianiac girl who seems unaffected by the flattery of the hockey guys。 When the guys bet that Hudson can't get her to loosen up-in his bed-before the end of the semester, he can 't resist the challenge。But while Whitney and Hudson spend more time together, they both realize that there is so much more than meets the eye Slowly the attraction is building。 But when their different reasons for sticking together become clear, will they still want to be friends? Find out for yourself in this wonderful read。 Four out of five stars from me and a special thank you to Netgalley for providing the arc。• • •Forever in Cape May-Jennifer Probst I just love Jennifer Probst's romances。 They are funny, cozy and heartwarming。 So, when the third installment of The Sunshine Sisters came along on Netgalley, I had to request it。 In Love on Beach Avenue we have first met the Sunshine sisters, who run the sunshine Bridal business in Cape May。 Whereas Avery and Bella are totally happy with their jobs in the wedding planning business, for Taylor it is only temporarily。 She really wants to become an artist and explore the world。 So, when her new brother-in-law connects her to a gallery holder, who wants her to produce a series of paintings for an exposition, she is very excited。And who better to celebrate with,then her best friend Pierce? For years, Pierce and Taylor had a platonic relation。 But with Taylor leaving for Paris soon, they both find themselves admitting that they may be lusting after each other as well。 And with a very definitive end date on Taylor's time in Cape May they decide to add some benefits to their friendship。 Because both know that Pierce is destined to stay in Cape May and Taylor is the one for travelling。 But while their remaining time together is nearing the end, both Pierce and Taylor start to wonder of their dreams are still the same。 Or maybe they share more dreams and ideals than they may actually think。Jennifer creates a wonderful story, while teaching us that it can be dangerous to assume you know what other people want。 It could lead to heartbreak, funny situations and certainly an interesting story。 Five out of five stars from me and a special thank you to Netgalley for providing the arc。 。。。more

I have read many books by Jennifer Probst and thank NetGalley for an advanced copy to review。 This book seems different than many of the other JP books I've read previously。 It has a really sweet vibe to it that I really enjoyed。 That doesn't mean it is a clean novel, but I thought the romance was sweet。 Pierce is an amazing Hero, I really loved him。 I thought the heroine, Taylor, was wishy washy, but still likable。 I wish that since they were such great friends before they became more that they I have read many books by Jennifer Probst and thank NetGalley for an advanced copy to review。 This book seems different than many of the other JP books I've read previously。 It has a really sweet vibe to it that I really enjoyed。 That doesn't mean it is a clean novel, but I thought the romance was sweet。 Pierce is an amazing Hero, I really loved him。 I thought the heroine, Taylor, was wishy washy, but still likable。 I wish that since they were such great friends before they became more that they were more open about their feelings, but then there woudn't have been a book。 :-)。 A strong 4 stars。 。。。more

Taylor is the last single woman of the 3 Sunshine sisters, who own a wedding business in Cape May, NJ。 She never intended to be part of the business permanently, and is planning a trip to Paris at the end of this summer to pursue her career in art。Pierce is a wedding photographer whose main business comes from Sunshine Bridal。 He is yearning to reach out beyond weddings, engagements and baby photography sessions, but so far, hasn't been able to seal the deal。 He's made a pact with himself that a Taylor is the last single woman of the 3 Sunshine sisters, who own a wedding business in Cape May, NJ。 She never intended to be part of the business permanently, and is planning a trip to Paris at the end of this summer to pursue her career in art。Pierce is a wedding photographer whose main business comes from Sunshine Bridal。 He is yearning to reach out beyond weddings, engagements and baby photography sessions, but so far, hasn't been able to seal the deal。 He's made a pact with himself that at the end of this summer he will start his new career。Taylor and Pierce have been friends since they were young, but only platonic。 They did try to make out once, but it was underwhelming enough that they never tried again。。。until one night, exhausted after a long wedding and winding down with tequila, they wind up in each others' arms。 The sex was amazing (it is described in great detail in this book - hot but definitely for adults), so they decide to start a friends-with-benefits secret arrangement until the end of the summer。Does Taylor go to Paris to fulfill her dreams? Does Pierce find success in other types of photography?

This was my first read from Jennifer Probst。 I found it to be an enjoyable story with relatable characters, great banter, a few sexy moments and some great push/pull will they/won't they moments。 It kept my interest through out and had me wishing I lived in Cape May and had these characters as friends in my real life。 I need to go back and read the other Sunshine Sister stories but I didn't feel that I was missing anything in this story without them so you could easily read this as a standalone。 This was my first read from Jennifer Probst。 I found it to be an enjoyable story with relatable characters, great banter, a few sexy moments and some great push/pull will they/won't they moments。 It kept my interest through out and had me wishing I lived in Cape May and had these characters as friends in my real life。 I need to go back and read the other Sunshine Sister stories but I didn't feel that I was missing anything in this story without them so you could easily read this as a standalone。 。。。more

Who doesn't love hot sexy men, strong, passionate females, and loving families, who always support one another? I enjoyed the loving bond of the Sunshine sisters, and all their interactions, it felt like real family love and made me laugh at their teasing。 Jennifer Probst delivered all that I love in a friends to lovers’ story and so much more。 I really enjoy how the book is told from the perspective of the main characters。 I love getting the insight and feelings from the different characters。 Forever in Cape May is wonderful love story and is filled with heartbreaking and heartwarming moments。 I love the lighter moments where I find myself smiling and laughing out loud and the bittersweet moments that cause me to sigh, say aww to myself with tears filling my eyes。 Forever in Cape May is filled with such moments, and with so much emotion。 It is filled with all those things that we have come to love and expect in a love story, especially the poignant and bittersweet moments that filled this page turner。 Forever in Cape May is the story of Pierce Powers, photographer who works with Sunshine Bridal and Taylor Sunshine, co-owner of Sunshine Bridal with her sisters Avery and Bella。 Taylor and Pierce have been best friends since high school and promised each other that they would never try to be more than friends。 Taylor did not plan on returning to Cape May following college graduation, but everything changed when Bella’s husband, Matt was killed in a car accident。 Carter put Taylor in contact with Luis, who is willing to show Taylor’s work in Paris。 After a night of drinking following a bachelorette party, Taylor and Pierce’s relationship changed。 As they spend more time together, they share secrets that they haven’t shared with anyone before, and realize they may have something more。 Taylor believes the Pierce wants a wife and family in Cape May and makes a rash decision that jeopardizes not only their relationship, but their friendship。 I love that both Pierce and Taylor were both willing to be so vulnerable and that each of them changed because of their love for one another。 Then a surprise plot twist changes everything that they had built with one another。 In order to get Pierce back, Taylor realizes that she has to do something big to win Pierce back and I loved her grand gesture! I love Pierce’s relationship with Carter, Gabe and especially, Zoe。 I loved that Forever in Cape May is a more than just a romance, there are dilemmas that both Taylor and Pierce are facing that need to be resolved, Pierce’s decision to change the focus of photography and Taylor’s fears that Pierce will eventually resent her for giving up his dreams in Cape May。 Forever in Cape May is such a beautifully written love story, that is such a fitting tribute to Taylor and Pierce。 I love all the descriptions of the setting that Jennifer Probst details, it makes me want to visit。 My favorite part of the book is that is concluded the series in such a beautiful way, with Avery and Carter’s stunning wedding, and a proposal for Bella and Gabe, I truly love how the story went above and beyond the happily ever after。 Forever in Cape May is filled with the poignant and bittersweet moments in the story as well as the plot twists, that I have come to love and expect in Jennifer Probst's stories。 I love the cast of characters in Forever in Cape May and loved catching up with Avery, Carter, Bella, Gabe and Zoe。 Who doesn’t love family and friends that always have each other’s backs? I thoroughly enjoyed Forever in Cape May, who doesn’t love a beautifully written love story, that concludes an amazing series。 。。。more

This got me。 I ended up all mushy at the end of this and I did not want to be。 However, theme of friendship and love really hit me and I ended up begrudgingly loving this。 Why begrudgingly you ask? I'll tell you why。 At first, I was highly annoyed with the book。 This was mostly due to Taylor, one of our main protagonists, being a character I was not buying。 I could not tell if the character was supposed to be trying this hard or not。 Any character that wears a shirt that says #unimpressed at one This got me。 I ended up all mushy at the end of this and I did not want to be。 However, theme of friendship and love really hit me and I ended up begrudgingly loving this。 Why begrudgingly you ask? I'll tell you why。 At first, I was highly annoyed with the book。 This was mostly due to Taylor, one of our main protagonists, being a character I was not buying。 I could not tell if the character was supposed to be trying this hard or not。 Any character that wears a shirt that says #unimpressed at one point of the book is trying too hard。 She supposedly does not believe in love but the reader has no idea where this is coming from。 She has two sisters who own lives prove her wrong, but for some reason she has this chip on her shoulder when it comes to this。 Why? There is really no backstory to explain this and it drove me crazy。I was well on my way to rating this low because I needed an explanation。 I needed to buy what was being sold to me。 While I still have this complaint, the sweetness of the actual romance, the endearingness (is that a word?) of the familiar friends-to-lovers plot line, and the well-paced ending all ended up winning me over。 I ended up very much caring about this duo so。。。 it got me。 I am glad of that too because I love a good romance and this ended up being a lovely one。I have not read the previous novels in this series so I can attest to the fact that it makes a good standalone。 Also, if you are like me, this will make you want to go back and read the others。 Maybe I will end up understanding Taylor a bit better。 。。。more

ARC received for an honest reviewYou know when you pick up a JP book you are going to get a heartfelt, wonderful story that you are going to fall in love with。But this time, I just didn't。 I like the characters of Taylor and Pierce for the most part, but as a romantic couple? Nope, just didn't feel it, at all。I think it was because there was such a fuss made at the beginning about how there was no sexual attraction between them, the deal they made etc, that when they fell into the sex-trap, to m ARC received for an honest reviewYou know when you pick up a JP book you are going to get a heartfelt, wonderful story that you are going to fall in love with。But this time, I just didn't。 I like the characters of Taylor and Pierce for the most part, but as a romantic couple? Nope, just didn't feel it, at all。I think it was because there was such a fuss made at the beginning about how there was no sexual attraction between them, the deal they made etc, that when they fell into the sex-trap, to me there was just nothing really there。And I got so frustrated and mad at Taylor at times for things, that that also took away from the heart eyes feelings I should have been having。Things did speed up and get better in the latter half of the book, but not enough to bring my rating up - sorry Ms Probst 。。。more

I was excited to read “Forever in Cape May” because the beautiful seaside town of Cape May is magical, welcoming and the perfect place to fall in love。 I love Taylor and I couldn’t wait to find out how she really felt about Pierce。 I love her pink hair, feisty attitude and infectious personality。 The closeness of the Sunshine sisters and the fun they have at work and at home is refreshing and emphasizes the importance of family。 Taylor loves working with her sisters but she doesn’t love what she I was excited to read “Forever in Cape May” because the beautiful seaside town of Cape May is magical, welcoming and the perfect place to fall in love。 I love Taylor and I couldn’t wait to find out how she really felt about Pierce。 I love her pink hair, feisty attitude and infectious personality。 The closeness of the Sunshine sisters and the fun they have at work and at home is refreshing and emphasizes the importance of family。 Taylor loves working with her sisters but she doesn’t love what she does。 Taylor’s restless spirit called to her to travel and pursue a career in the art world。 Leaving her family would be hard, but saying goodbye to Pierce would be heartbreaking。 He was her soulmate, her better half and he was the only person who truly understood her。 Taylor and Pierce are creative artists who share everything with each other: their hopes and dreams, nights on the couch watching movies, and fun days at the beach。 Every minute they spent together was special and created more memories for their scrapbook。 I enjoyed watching Taylor and Pierce fall in love even though they were trying to fight it。 Their new feelings for each other were intense and confusing, but not unexpected。 Perhaps this was what their relationship was always meant to become。 “Forever in Cape May” is a heart-tugging and emotional story of friendship, love and chasing your dreams。 I could sense the deep feelings between Taylor and Pierce immediately and I desperately wanted them to be together forever! Pierce would never hold Taylor back from pursuing her dreams but the sadness Pierce was exhibiting was overwhelming and all-consuming。 He wanted her to be happy but he couldn’t see a life without her and he was afraid she would never come back。 It was inevitable that their desire for each other would be too strong to ignore。 They came together in love because it had always been there。 The only question was whether love was all they needed, or would their lives take them in different directions and lead to an uncertain future? 。。。more

A best friends to lovers story that was cute but somewhat generic to the trope so it's not memorable。 And I don't know if it just me but after being told that they had no chemistry over and over again plus the failed attempts at more, it was hard to root for them。 I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book received from the publisher via NetGalley。 All thoughts and opinions are my own。 A best friends to lovers story that was cute but somewhat generic to the trope so it's not memorable。 And I don't know if it just me but after being told that they had no chemistry over and over again plus the failed attempts at more, it was hard to root for them。 I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book received from the publisher via NetGalley。 All thoughts and opinions are my own。 。。。more

I've read books by this author before so I was excited to get an ARC of this book。 I was surprised to see it was part of a series but could be read as a standalone。 With so many more books on my TBR pile, I fought the OCD of needing to read them in order。 It was a cute sorry of friends to lovers, no strings attached。 But their relationship felt comfy like an old shoe, slightly boring。 I received a complimentary copy of this book through NetGalley。 The views and opinions expressed in this review I've read books by this author before so I was excited to get an ARC of this book。 I was surprised to see it was part of a series but could be read as a standalone。 With so many more books on my TBR pile, I fought the OCD of needing to read them in order。 It was a cute sorry of friends to lovers, no strings attached。 But their relationship felt comfy like an old shoe, slightly boring。 I received a complimentary copy of this book through NetGalley。 The views and opinions expressed in this review are entirely my own。 。。。more
