If you want a fun beach read where the guy wins the girl,
choose any of the Shelter Bay novels by JoAnn Ross. The setting is a picturesque little town on
the coast of Oregon called Shelter Bay.
It has a lighthouse on a cliff and a bevy of former Marines and Navy
Seals. I have only read the one book, Moonshell Beach, but I think all of the
books in the series concern the love lives of these former military men and the
women they meet while living in the little town.
These books are escapism at its finest, with little doses of
real life and real-world problems (at least, American real-world problems) to
keep it interesting. This book had
domestic abuse, stalking, and paparazzi contributing to the plot. But you also get romance, beautiful, wealthy people, and a
wedding.
The characters were interesting and flawed just enough to
deepen the story. I enjoyed the book. It
was a quick read. I’ll look for others
in the series for light-hearted reading.
I give it three beach umbrellas.
