READ, WRITE LOVE
Book Five, The Remingtons
Bestselling author Kurt Remington lives to write. He spends twelve hours a day in front of his computer, rarely leaving the seclusion of his beach-front property, where he’s come to finish his latest thriller—that is, until free-spirited Leanna Bray nearly drowns in the ocean trying to save her dog. Kurt’s best-laid plans are shot to hell when he comes to their rescue. Kurt’s as irritated as he is intrigued by the sexy, hot mess of a woman who lives life on a whim, forgets everything, and doesn’t even know the definition of the word organized.

My Review


Of all the Remington book so far, this one is my favourite. I’m not sure if it’s because the hero, Kurt, is a writer, and we get to see gentler side to the hero instead of pure Alpha male or maybe it’s because the setting is Cape Cod.  I can imagine myself on the deck gazing at the sea although I’m sure I wouldn’t be as disciplined a writer as him.  Although I’ve never been there, Melissa Foster does a great job of taking the reader along with her.
I really liked Leanna too and the dilemma she faces. Her cottage industry, Luscious Leanna’s Treats, is about to expand. What will happen at the end of summer? I love that way that Kurt and Leanna are opposites and how she brings mess and confusion into Kurt’s precise, orderly life. There are lots of steamy moments but underlying it all, it’s still quite a sweet romance.
This is a great summer or beach read which will inspire you to go to the sea, perhaps with a dog, in search of your own hero.

5/5
