This is the first book I have read from Amber, and I liked it. It was easy to read, great characters and I want to go to Sandcastle Cove.
Amiya is our FMC. There is toughness about her from a past she doesn't talk about, and because of this, doesn't believe she will love or be loved. Her initial meeting with our MMC Lennon, is when her best friend Avie becomes engaged to Lennon's brother Sebastian. Of course the spice hits, but thats where it ended....for now.
Lennon never forgot Amiya and vice versa, and now, here they are, forced to share the cabana, and navigate the best wedding. This gives them time to truly see each other, and amp the ante on that spice. There are a few funny moments, and some that had me feel the pain. A good read, and I look forward to reading more of Amber's books in the future. This may be Book 3 in this series, but this is a complete standalone, and as someone who has not read either of the first two books, it was easy to follow.

Third times the charm and makes quite a first impression. Kelly balances the uncertainty of life with the heartache of romance and discovers the ultimate love story. Wonderful characters, unpredictable emotion and exceptional story makes Passing Ships a haunting revelation.
Thank you to Amber for the ARC and opportunity to provide an honest review.
This book was amazing. Amiya and Lennon were brilliantly written main characters, who were supported by an amazing group of characters from previous books in the Sandcastle Cove series.
Lennon was such a great MMC who doesn't love a sailor? I loved Lennon and Amiya's banter and the way they connected brilliantly. Loved the found family vibes of this book. The friendships were brilliantly written. Amiya was a character who felt strong connections to the people in her life, I loved her determination and her sarcasm, she was the perfect match for Lennon.

I have read the first two books in this series and was so excited to see who the third book was about and it did not disappoint! Lennon and Amiyah are everything and balance each other so well.
Lennon and Amiyah were the most unlikely match but they fit each other perfectly. Lennon is calm, collected and careful where Amiyah is sassy, quick and a bit carefree but these two balanced each other perfectly.
You could feel the sparks between these two during their first meeting and the spice is pretty instant with these two having one night together. But Amiyah thought Lennon forgot about her so when the reunite for her best friend/his brother’s wedding there is a bit of tension between the two. Once these two work through this tension these two find their groove with one another. While Lennon is grumpy he isn’t rude to people or Amiyah and he finds amusement with her antics vs being annoyed and I loved that! Honestly I could go on and on about this book and I wish it would have been longer because I honestly loved these two as a couple especially towards the end where Lennon told Amiyah exactly what he wanted with their relationship and his plans to make it happen…..it was everything we want to see in a book!
If you are looking for a quick swoon worthy romance with story, growth and spice this is the book for you!
Thank you Amber and Wordsmith Publicity for the arc of this book.

This was a sweet and steamy small town romance that was a quick and easy read. Since binge reading the previous two books, I have been excited for this one. Amiya has been my fave side character since book one of the series and I loved the breadcrumbs we were left for her and Lennon previously.
She’s carefree and fiery while he’s controlled and a little bit grumpy. They’re complete opposites who shared one night together and now are back in Sandcastle Cove for the wedding of Lennon’s brother and Amiya’s best friend. They try to deny there was anything more but it doesn’t take long before they give in to the pull between them. I really loved them together and how they complimented one another.
I do wish we got more of their connection, the book was very heavy on the previous couples wedding and they seemed to go from zero to in love real quick with not much to build up that we got on page.

Dnf @ 10%, I’ve never read this author before and I just couldn’t get into the writing. Can’t place my finger on what exactly it just didn’t flow well for me. Also, this is personal preference, but all the names had so many vowels that it looked weird and was hard to keep the characters straight
emotional
funny
hopeful
lighthearted
reflective
relaxing
