5 stars
5 on love
4 on spice

My first read from this author and what a great read it was! The female character Monique and her family went on a holiday vacation to Belize and so did her parents friends which meant Kevin and Kyle was also going to be there. She grew up with the boys but haven’t seen them in over a decade. The first time that Kevin saw Monique he fell for her again and thanks to a simple game of truth or dare, things changed for them both.

An HEA and I might have cried at certain parts of this book

Belize Bliss by @authorclcollier tells the friends-to-lovers story of Monique and Kevin, two childhood friends that were brought together on a Thanksgiving trip to Belize by both sets of their parents. Kevin and Monique are the only single ones on the trip, so they spend most of the trip alone together and end up reconnecting in a way that neither one of them expect. However, there is one giant obstacle that Monique and Kevin must overcome at the end of their Thanksgiving trip in Belize: Monique lives in France and Kevin lives in Oregon where he cannot see himself ever giving up.

This book of the Vagabond series was a very easy ⭐⭐⭐⭐ ⭐ read for me! The characters are extremely likeable and well written, I adored their friends to lovers trope, and they had an extremely cute date in a bowling alley that reminded me very much of when my husband and I went bowling together for the first time. (I was the bowling captain of the high school team and stomp him with a win every game against my husband whenever we go, but that's neither here nor there...) I would recommend this book to anyone looking for a quick, beach read with a wonderful example of friends to lovers that pays off in the end for everyone!
