Fall in love at Bayside, where sandy beaches, good friends, and true love come together in the sweet small towns of Cape Cod. Bayside Summers is a series of standalone steamy romance novels featuring alpha male heroes and sexy, empowered women. They’re fun, flirty, flawed, deeply emotional, always passionate, and easy to relate to.
Hold on to your hat for Violet’s wildly hot love story! Lizza is up to her old tricks again, and Violet is in for the surprise of a lifetime!
Two years ago Violet Vancroft was a nomadic artist who never wanted to put down roots and Andre Shaw was a prominent Boston physician whose roots ran too deep to unearth. Their love didn’t stand a chance-or at least that’s what Violet believed when she received a plea for help from the sister she’d never really known-so she snuck away like a thief in the night.
Now Andre travels the world setting up new medical clinics, and Violet has finally found the family she’d always craved and the roots she’d never known she wanted. When their paths cross unexpectedly, it’s not the reunion either one imagined. But they’ve never stopped loving each other, and after the dust of anger and hurt settles, passion ignites even hotter than before. As the end to Andre’s time at the Cape nears, reality sets in, leaving them no closer to a future than they were before. Violet and Andre are forced to dig deep to discover if they’re destined to live apart forever or if true love really can conquer all.
Thank you to Lisa and Melissa for my copy of this book. I am a huge fan of Melissa’s and I have eagerly been awaiting Violet’s story mainly because she is such a mystery!
Violet has been through so much. She was ripped from her childhood by her mother and she has never quite recovered or dealt with the fallout. As a consequence Violet is extreme;y guarded. On the outside, she is a feisty woman who says what she thinks. On the inside, she is a sappy girl who just needs a little love.
Andre, what can I say about this gorgeous, patient man. He is the perfect man for Violet and she is the perfect woman for him. She helped to show him the world through a different perspective. She inspired him to be better.
Andre’s parents were the best. I really loved them and they were nothing like I expected. Andre’s mum was my favourite! She made me laugh so much!
This story is full of some real tear-jerker moments. When that sweet sappy side of Violet comes out you can’t help but love her just as much.
I really enjoyed seeing Violet open up and grow with Andre. It was also great to see some characters from the other series pop up and I can’t wait for their stories too.
