maeclair's review against another edition
5.0
This is a positively enchanting story about second-chance romance. Five years ago, Rebecca Sorenson and Mitch Taylor said “I do” in Vegas five years ago after partying in a night club. They’ve been separated ever since and now Rebecca is one step shy of signing divorce papers. Does she love Mitch? Of course—if she’d only wise up and admit her feelings. Does he love her? He never stopped, but she walked out of his life.
Part of the fun of this book is watching this made-for-each-other couple go through a tug of war of feelings. But there’s far more to Summer Lovin’ than an HEA romance. Biggar layers her book with a subplot involving two young boys remanded to the custody of their alcoholic and abusive uncle. When Rebecca’s life becomes entwined with the boys, danger follows close behind.
One thing you can always count on from this author is heartwarming story that leaves you with a warm glow, long after you’ve finished the story. She knows how to tug heartstrings and create characters who feel like friends and family. Male and female characters are handled with equal ease and the writing is breezy and polished. I had to re-read several passages just for the enjoyment of the author’s clever turn of phrase. This book is part of a series but is also perfect as a stand-alone. A thoroughly entertaining read!

Rebecca Sorenson is the secretary at Cascade Elementary and enjoys her job and living in her hometown. When Rebecca helps a young boy at the school, Tommy, whom she doesn't recognize something seems off to her and she reports it. One night she is at a local club when she is approached by 2 drunks who are planning on attacking her when she is rescued by Mitch Taylor.
Mitch Taylor had dreams of making it football and finding the right woman and both seemed to have blown up. He still has feelings for his ex but she cast him aside within minutes after they were married.
Will Mitch try and keep Rebecca safe from whom is after her and are there more secrets being kept from the people in town when Tommy is recognized?
This was a great novella about second chances and about protecting those who need protecting.
This is the second book I have read in this series and I think I really need to go back and read the ones I haven't read yet as there are some characters I really want to know more about.
I liked Rebecca but I'd love to really know why she pulled the plug on her relationship as I felt as though it could have gone into more depth. I didn't get a sense that she gave the marriage a shot at all. Mitch seems to show up at the right time which is great for Rebecca and obviously he cares about her.
I really hope the author writes a book with Sheriff Jack Garrett and what happens with Tommy and Jasper!!
