She never expected to find perfection in the resort’s emerald-eyed bartender.
Life’s a gift to Zac Durant, and he’s determined to live it to the fullest. Tending bar at a resort is a small price to pay if it means he can scuba and surf every day in paradise.

This is book 2 in the Sweet Escape series and it features Jordan and Zac. This is a very witty, steamy, sad and romantic story full of friendship, loyalty, great sex, love and family. The highs were high and the lows were low. I couldn’t figure out how these two could ever make it work living in different countries and all. The journey was the ultimate vacation fling.
I love the friendship these girls have. It’s a lifelong kind of thing. Sam is a different person, in a good way, now that she is in love. I can’t wait to read Liddy’s story!
I received an ARC of this book and offered to share my thoughts and opinions in return. I truly loved this book. It is fun, flirty, and has a sexiness to it with the characters and their interactions together, but it does have serious tones to it such as him taking care of others and trying to be responsible and achieve dreams that he has. It is written well and flows easily, and will keep you entranced throughout.
Loving this steamy, fresh, fun, almost insta-love series. Hot Spell revolves around Jordan & Zac. I so enjoyed reading of all the fun and frolic in Puerto Vallarta. Totally makes me want to take a vacation there. I loved Jordan’s feistiness and zest for life. But I especially loved how she and Zac burned up the pages.
I’m loving this series so far!
This story follows Jordan, as they take a trip to Mexico to help nurse Liddy’s broken heart! She meets Zac and he seems to knock down all her barriers she keeps up to keep her heart safe!
Enjoy their trip and all the goings on in the background, it holds your interest and you want to keep turning the pages! 5 stars and I can’t wait for book 3!
5 STAR Review by Jodi for Ruby Red Romance Review
I am so in love with this series. I loved these girls. Every time I read a new book in this series I fall further and further in love. This is Jordan’s story and it’s everything I was hoping for and so much more.
Jordan is funny, smart, and looking for no one. Jordan is loyal and needs to learn to stand up for herself. She and the girls are in Mexico to help Liddy get over a breakup. She never imagined finding the man with would turn her world upside down. Zac could have anyone he wants, but what he wants is Jordan. Working in a tourist town, Zac doesn’t need to find a girlfriend. Zac is kind and loving. I love how much he cares for those that love him.
This story was beautiful and sent me on an emotional rollercoaster. I loved every second of this great story. Please check it out. I think Zac and Jordan might be my favorite couple, but we still have Liddy!

After reading this book, all I can think is “man, I need a vacation”! Hot Spell is the second in the Sweet Escape series by Mia London and Susan Sheehey. I haven’t read the first of the series but it did not affect my enjoyment.
After their friend Liddy goes through another horrible breakup, the girls decide a vacation fling is just what the doctor ordered. A few quick clicks and they’re on their way to sun, sand and sexy times in Mexico. Although, they’re off on an adventure for Liddy, Jordan finds a hot tamale for herself, as well. The bartender at the resort has got her a little hot under the collar and it’s not just the Mexican sun.
Zac meets all kinds of women while working the bar at the resort but he’s never met some quite like Jordan. Watching her do gymnastics on the beach is literally making his heart do flips. After moving to Mexico to take care of his ailing grandmother, he hasn’t given much thought or attention to a relationship but Jordan is making all those dormant desires come flaming back to life.
When a series of robberies begin at the resort, Zac makes it his mission to protect Jordan and her girls, even if that means putting himself, and his heart, on the line.
I adored Zac from early on and I really enjoyed seeing Jordan finally recognize what’s been holding her back and finally able to give her life away! Quick read packed with lots of action, heat and plenty of heart.

Hot Spell is book number two in the Sweet Escape series by Mia London and Susan Sheehey. This is Jordan Beck and Zac Durant’s story.
Jordan and her friends are on another girl’s trip to help her to get over her last heartbreak. Zac at first appears to be a guy that has escaped to Mexico to work odd jobs and live life to fullest. As you get to know Zac you realize there is more to him and why his made the decisions he has made.
Zac and Jordan end up falling for one another. Jordan lives in San Francisco and Zac lives in Mexico so this can only be a vacation fling or can it be more?
Even though Zac comes across as just a fun guy there was just something that made me feel a connection to him. Now Jordan was a little harder to feel a connection to. As you get to know her you realize that Jordan is coming to terms with her issues with her father and boyfriends. This helped me to understand Jordan better.
A heartwarming and steamy read FYI, contains mature content. I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book.
The intrepid trio are back!
After Liddy suffers from another breakup from a guy she thought was “the one”, the girls set off to Mexico for sun, sea, sand and fun! Sam is totally loved up but Jordan is in need of a break as much as Liddy is. Jordan certainly didn’t expect to meet anyone as hot, hunky or ripped as Zac and she most definitely didn’t plan on falling for him either!
Zac makes a living as a bar tender whilst tending to his ailing grandmother and harbouring ideas of opening up his own dive shop. He is professional at work so when he feels the attraction to Jordan he’s not quite sure how to proceed.
I love this trio. They are there for each other when they need it most, they are not afraid to throw their friends in at the deep end if they feel she needs encouragement and they’d gladly help each other hide the body of anyone who hurts the others!
Zac is handsome and he knows it but he doesn’t let it define him and he a depth you don’t often get. He really feels that Jordan is out of his league. My favourite scene has to be at the Glass Shop, that just pushed all my awwwwwww buttons! Jordan may be an ex-Olympian but she has stresses and self-esteem issues like the rest of us. Great mix of sweet, steamy, sexy scenes with heartfelt characters.
I’m loving this series so far!
