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.

Review

SUNSETS AT SEASIDE is a romance story about a woman who is trying to find out what a normal life would be like and a man who has been largely labelled for his wealth and business acumen who find a chance for love with each other. There is a group of friends who are the focus of other stories in the series who bring a family/small-town feel to this story. Readers can expect some drama, romantic tension, and the usual twist in the story that creates a barrier to these two finding their happily-ever-after.

The romance is fairly all encompassing, making up the bulk of the story. It also isn't drawn out. In other words, lots and lots of kissing plus the relationship going all the way and the characters falling in love come into play almost immediately. I would have liked the romance to have been much more subtle and drawn out so that there was more tension and a more meaningful relationship. I've always felt that less is more in romance in so many ways. The romance also goes full tilt even before I was able to really get to know or be committed to the characters, so emotionally, as a reader, I wasn't invested in the characters. It reads very much like a general romance with plenty of innuendo, lots of lustful comments, fairly descriptive making out, but with closed-door scenes and no swearing.

Content: Lots of innuendo, descriptive making out, closed-door love scenes.
