She’s wounded. He’s driven. Could they be exactly what the other needs?Ten years earlier, Haley Faraway fled home without looking back. After her father’s death, she reluctantly returns to Enchantment Bay to help her mom and sister. Painful memories haunt her, and Haley finds herself pouring her heart out to the one person she least expected—the impossibly gorgeous, albeit short-tempered, … short-tempered, Sullivan Hunter.
Sullivan wants nothing more than to focus on his newly-acquired realty business. But when Haley comes back to town, he can’t deny his attraction to her. After a string of bad relationships with gold-digging women, she’s a breath of fresh air. Or is she? Just as he begins to get comfortable with their burgeoning relationship, he discovers she’s a realtor, too. His temper gets the best of him as he suspects he’s being used by yet another woman.
Every time Haley and Sullivan clear one hurdle, another looms larger in their path and they push each other away. Can they move on from their painful pasts and find love—or are they doomed to repeat old mistakes?

The Hunters Boxed Set – All the stories of the Hunters Series are good. I’ve read several more of the eight besides the boxed set.
Seaside Surprises #1 – Pleasant surprise! Since this was my first book by Ms. Claflin, I was surprised. The author did great job with her writing, characters, and plot, which immerses the reader into the story. It’s refreshing to read a decent book without explicit sex and profanity and stupidity. I’ll be reading more of Ms. Claflin’s book. She ranks with Maeve Binchy.
Seaside Heartbeats #2 – Intriguing. Another well written, funny romance with heartwarming characters that are real and a twisting plot giving suspense to the story. The Hunters are a good family and each story is fresh, no repeats.
Seaside Dances #3 – Little sad. A well written, intriguing romance with a couple of not so happy characters and all the rest of characters in this series. The plot twists from a sad, slow beginning into fast moving happiness. Not my favorite book of the Hunters series, but still an interesting read.
Seaside Kisses #4 – Heartwarming. A well written, interesting romance with well developed characters with realistic dialog and a good plot. The Hunters’ stories may end the same way, HEA, but getting there is different for each Hunter and soulmate. Ms. Claflin does not disappoint the reader with these eight books.
Seaside Kisses – Unpleasant surprise. The author did a great job writing this book until the main characters went stupid. Why do many authors have their main characters stop believing the people they love and trust the word of people they don’t know personally and know those people are usually scum/trouble? It was an unpleasant surprise, when one of my favorite authors did this near the end. A smart, successful woman goes stupid and insecure, instead of doing the right thing. But Ms. Claflin did take the heads out of the nether regions and put them back on the shoulders of the woman and the love interest. This was still a good book and the author is still one of my favorites.
Bayside Promises #8 – A heavy but with humor story. A well written, intense romance with interesting, believable characters. The heaviness of the father’s destructive behavior towards his family damages his daughters, but they still have a sense of humor, although love is difficult. I didn’t like the father, because of his destruction, but not everything is sunshine and roses. This book is kinda like watching Die Hard when it first hit the screen, it involved your emotions too hard when the causes were exposed to the girls’ thought processes. It is a good story and worth reading.
Bayside Destinies #9 – A heavy but heartwarming story. A well written, intense romance with an intriguing dilemma for the main characters. The characters, all known to us from the rest of the series, are still interesting and appealing. The dialog is realistic and the plot immerses the reader fully. The book is full of humor, even with the dark subject material. Another hard to put down book by an author who can write an interesting story without vulgar language and sex.
Bayside Opposites #10 – Heartwarming romance. A well written, lighthearted romance with two wonderful characters, actually three including the great state of Texas. The well thought out plot and developed characters keep the reader in suspense until the book ends, which is way to soon since the story is so good. Ms. Claflin never fails to deliver a good story and I look forward to reading more of her books.
