Hailey Anderson has a major crush on Tony Adamo and Mark Allen. They are all at the airport ready to go on vacation. She’s trying to get away from her boyfriend, Daniel. Also on vacation are her brother Jake and his wife Nikki. To round out the group are Nikki’s brother and sister, Landon and Meredith.

I have to envy Hailey’s vacation. She has the attention of not one but two very sexy men. Plus they’re in one of the most romantic settings. My vacations seem dull compared to that. She has a secret that she doesn’t want her brother to find out about. But that’s not to say that everyone else doesn’t figure it out.

I love that Samantha doesn’t make it an easy relationship. This is what makes the relationship seem so real. She does a great job of making everything seem possible. There doesn’t seem to be anything that has you questioning any scene between our three lovers. She also touches on the subject of domestic violence but it doesn’t overtake the main theme of the story. She also has you wondering if there are other “couples” out there as happy as Hailey and her men. Samantha also adds in challenges and fears that make Hailey wonder if all this is possible.

If you like books by Carina Press, this is another good one to read. Samantha is a new author for me so I look forward to see what else she has in store for her readers. If you want something steamy for when the summer nights get cool, this book delivers. I know you will enjoy it as much as I did.
