The final book in the Rockport Beach series and a fantastic wrap up to the character and plot arcs. While this book can definitely be read as a stand alone, it reads better as part of the series as it gives the reader so much contextual material to work with. As with the other two in the series, Raye integrates a perfect amount of danger and suspense into the storyline, while at the same time develops an instant chemistry between the main characters, Finn and Sarah. Absolutely love the way Claire Raye writes! 5 stars.
In this third book of the series, we finally get to follow Finn’s story. OMG!!! Finn’s activities at the bar are funny. A mystery woman shows up and then is gone! Who is she? Oh lord! This book takes a romance and turns it into suspence with a touch of thriller in it for me! I could not put this book down, even when my eyes started to burn and go blurry. We meet a whole host of new characters, but the biggest constants are the cops and the women they love! Read and see what I mean!
RECEIVED THIS BOOK AS A GIFT FOR A FAIR/HONEST REVIEW and REVIEWER FOR Bloggin’ With M. Brennan.
Oh Finn. I was looking forward to his book the most & let me tell you, it did not disappoint! I loved that Finn who never “lets himself go” had a random hookup & then just couldn’t get her out of his head….and I honestly loved that Sarah, Ryan’s sister, was the h!! I loved that like the other books in the series that there was enough action/drama/suspense to move the story along but not drag it down. Very enjoyable!!!
I was so thrilled to see Finn get his own Happily Ever After! He and Sarah are seriously a perfect match, balanced and loving and adorable. There was a lot of drama in this book, but it kept me turning the pages and wanting more. Just like the other couples in this series, Sarah and Finn overcome so much to be together, and I very much enjoyed their story and seeing them persevere in the face of adversity. There were several twists and turns that kept me guessing, and I love that about this book. It was action-packed – both in and out of bed – and a page turner from beginning to end.
While I’m sad to see the Rockport Beach series end, I’m so glad I read it. Every book was great!
This is the book I’ve been waiting for in the Rockport Beach series…FINN!! I’ve come to really like the protective yet gentle man in the previous books and couldn’t wait to see him get his happy. But Claire Raye sure made him work for it.
To say Finn and Sarah’s first meeting was explosive would be an understatement. These two lit it up! And when they ran into each other again they were both thrown for a loop. Sarah was great. She is smart and kind and gave as good as she got. While trying to balance a new job, with a jerk of a boss, and a new relationship, some things went let unsaid when they should’ve been addressed head on. That’s not to say Finn was blameless. He kept things very close to the vest as well. And he had a big problem on his plate too.
There was an intensity to this that built and built and I was just waiting for it to all come to a head. And when it did…talk about pulse pounding. I LOVED how when everything was on the line, Sarah held her own.
Sarah and Finn’s journey was sweet and oh so sexy. Making Home With You is the conclusion this series needed. There was family, laughter, tears, friendship, drama and of course, love. This small beach town had more than it’s fair share of danger and I was so glad that all the couples got their happy.
This has to be my favorite book from this series! Not only do we have suspense on Sarah’s side of the book, but also Finn’s! Finn is the chief of police and the town’s top bachelor, but he isn’t interested in the girls he’s practically grown up with. When he meets a stranger in his family’s bar and has a quick hookup, he can’t get her out of his head. Little does he know how he will find out who she actually is. Sarah seems to have never felt passion like she has after seeing Finn for the first time, although she doesn’t realize his relation to her brother. When the two reunite and are properly introduced, they can’t deny the chemistry and feelings they have developed and decide to give a relationship a shot. With Sarah’s new boss sending off creepy vibes, and Finn’s high school hookup causing drama, there is suspense from both sides of this storyline and it makes this book what it is! I loved that it continually kept me guessing and even contemplating if the two bad guys were in on it together! It was the perfect ending to this series, although I hope we get Joe’s story!
I voluntarily read and reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book.
4 stars!!
This is Finn and Sarah’s story. Book 3 in the “Rockport Beach” series. This can be read as a stand alone, I guess. But I think to know all the characters and the dynamic I would just read all three books!
I have patiently been waiting for Finn’s story. I was drawn to him in book one and it just grew from there. I am still like totally hot for him. He is protective, kind, quite, funny and such an alpha male. So for him and Sarah to find each other it was perfect. They make such a good couple.
Each story follows the same storyline Pretty much. I love that Sarah is bad ass!! I will say that the book could use some shortening in the sense that it just kind of drug on and repeated things. But I was so damn hooked on these characters that it didn’t matter to me. I did enjoy the story line but the last two books felt choppy and didn’t flow easily. But the plot made up for that all!!
This is another great weekend read full of suspense, sexy time, humor, hope and love!!
I have been waiting for Finn’s story since the very beginning! Finn is Rockport Beach’s chief of police and the towns hottest bachelor. The man has absolutely ZERO interest in a relationship, that is until he has a random hook up in the bathroom of the pub with a beautiful stranger.
We were first introduced to Sarah in book two, she is Ryan’s youngest sister. She is in town visiting Erin and Ryan and decides to stay awhile, especially after another run in with Finn. Finn instantly fell for Sarah and Sarah instantly fell for Finn. These two had amazing chemistry both in and out of the bedroom.
Unlike the other books in this series the drama comes from both sides. Sarah has a creepy boss at her new job, and I mean the name is CREEPY on a whole new level. Finn has some drama with a girl he hooked up with 16 years ago. Given Sarah’s brother, the girl can definitely defend herself and she does just that a few times throughout the story.
Like the previous books in the series this one completely sucked me in. The plot has so many twists and turns you want to know what is going to happen next. This story was HOT, suspenseful, swoon-worthy and a fantastic read!
**I received a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review**
Claire Raye is a new author to me but after breezing through all 3 books rather quickly I’m a fan. This book was captivating with the thrilling storyline, amazing characters with twists and turns that will have you on the edge of your seat. Finn and Sarah were sweet, fun and explosive together that they will leave you wanting so much more! I can’t wait to see what’s next from this author!
