Tropes: opposites attract, miscommunication
Enjoyed the musical parts of this story the most, but found the gratuitous sexual content too much. The texting was a more realistic part of the relationship development than the in-person stuff, which was essentially all Insta-lust, all the time. An enjoyable read, regardless. I did feel sorry for the MMC and the way he was treated by so many people.

10/10. I really enjoyed this book. Even when I wasn't reading it, I was thinking about the characters. This book made me laugh, made me cry, made me horny, and made me frustrated. I wouldn't change anything about this book. I highly recommend it.

I knew this book was friends to lovers, but since reading the first one I had forgotten about Fox’s main plot point being that he’s a manwhore. Seeing him unpack that especially with the help of Hannah was so interesting & well done. Not something I’ve ever had be a main plot point in a book I’ve read. That was probably my favorite part of the book.

I loved this book it was so cute i loved the little epilogue to Fox and Hannah were so cute and do not let this innocent little cover fool you this book is spicy and the male main character is spicy my lord the mouth on him and the looks from him i kept kicking my feet and giggling every time Fox got jealous of even the mention of Sergei i also loved every scene with Fox and Hannah together i love the whole Bellingers sisters series fisherman vibe after this series I definitely will be looking for more ocean related romance books this book was friends to lovers,Forced proximity,Small town romance and Slow burn its also a happy ending with no cliffhangers and this book is in a series the first book is called It happened one summer these books do not have to be read in order but i highly recommend reading them in order because this book has the main characters in the first book in the epilogue and throughout the book so it’s Kind’ve a spoiler but it can be read in any order it also has no love triangle and no cheating between the main characters overall i rated this book 4 stars⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This was such a good and fun read! I liked this more than It Happened One Summer simply because I liked these characters so much more. They were more... relatable to me than Piper and Brendan. I loved that it was about them figuring themselves out - together. They both helped each other find who they are. I really liked Hannah's character, and Fox is so great! Although the name 😅
I am finding that I like Tessa Bailey's characters and stories and I'm glad Fox at least used the nickname of "Freckles" because I'm still not a fan of the "baby" pet name 🙈

I do love a good romance, especially one that gives the og supporting characters substance. Is it predictable? Yes. Is it cheesy? Also yes. Will you love it? Absolutely.
