The Review
✨ The Title/Cover Draw:
- Melanie gifted me her entire library to review. This is #3 in the Paradise Bay series (with #4 coming later this year!).
💜 What I liked:
- Yet another cute tale! This one is about Brianna who works at the resort (owned by Harrison of the previous books). Leo is the brother of Pierce from book #2, which we met there. It really is kind of unique in that it’s a male Cinderella, but in reverse. And as always, the characters are fun and the situations entertaining.
😱 What I didn’t like:
- It seemed too short for me. I would have liked a little more at the end about Bri and her career.
💁♀️ The Characters:
- Leo doesn’t want to settle down and just wants to have fun with his parent’s money. Brianna is a single mom working to take the bar exam.
🚦 The Ending:
- Super fun and cute! Ready for Book #4 in the series.
💭 Consider if you like:
- Rom Coms in an island setting.
I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
📘 Summary:
Handsome, rich, and charming, Leopold Davenport has always been the life of the party. But when he takes things too far, his father banishes the twenty-seven-year-old from his homeland of Avonia for six months. Threatened with disinheritance, Leo must find a job, rent a home, and grow up. With nowhere to turn, Leo moves to Santa Valentina Island, where his sister-in-law helps him find work as a bellboy at the Paradise Bay Resort. Little does he know that dealing with people’s baggage will make him examine his own. Will he check out or find that a long-term reservation is on his itinerary?
Twenty-six-year-old single mum Brianna Lewis (a.k.a. Bree) doesn’t believe in fairy tales—not after being abandoned by the father of daughter, Isabelle. A law student by day and concierge by night, Bree’s determined to give Isabelle the life she never had. Suddenly finding herself in dire straits, she converts her garden shed into a rental suite in hopes of climbing out of the financial hole she’s in. But when the only person interested in renting the suite turns out to be to Leopold Davenport, the ridiculously good-looking co-worker she loves to hate, she knows she must choose between being happy and being broke. But as she gets to know him, she discovers there may be more to him than flirty smiles and empty charm.
Can Leopold make the leap from ultimate playboy to become the man Bree needs in her life?
Will Bree allow herself to believe in happily-ever-afters or will she play it safe and hang a do-not-disturb sign on her heart?
