She’s waited a long time for her second chance at love… trying to find her way. Taking the job as lighthouse keeper on Gansett Island was the best thing she could’ve done for herself. On the island she’s found amazing friends and a wonderful new life. There’s only one thing missing and that’s romance. She’s recently asked her new friends to fix her up with some of the island’s more eligible men. While her friends are busy arranging dates for her, Alex Martinez comes to cut the grass at the lighthouse.
He’s given up everything to come home to Gansett to care for his ailing mother…
Alex has gone from cultivating orchids at the US Botanic Garden in Washington to cutting grass on Gansett, like he did as a teenager. Running the family business with his brother while managing their mother’s dementia requires Alex’s undivided attention until a sexy lighthouse keeper shows him there’s much more to life than work and endless obligation.
During a scorching summer heat wave on Gansett, Jenny and Alex take comfort in each other, and what begins as a hot summer fling quickly becomes something much more lasting. But will it hold up beyond the heat wave when real life intrudes on their sexy interlude?

Such great book but a lot of sex. Too many caricatures. But still couldn’t put it down.
Enjoyed reading this book.
Too many characters to follow and devoting whole chapters to other characters ruined the continuity of this book. Marie Force usually writes much clearer storylines.
I highly recommend reading the other books in the series first. I received this book for free so thought I would read it and should be able to handle the plot line. Can’t get into it because characters and their drama are all over the place in it. Can tell you are supposed to know who they are but since I don’t, it’s hard to even care about them.
I look forward to each book
All Marie Force books good reading, good plots, wording
I enjoyed this story.
Always love Marie Force. Sweet and endearing characters, uplifting stories.
I have read a number of books in this series and have enjoyed them all. This book was no exception.
Enjoyed the book nice read.
I have read most of Marie Force’s books. They are fun and entertaining. You feel like you are part of a family.
Love this whole series!!!
Marie Force is a wonderful writer. I would have never started reading her books if it hadn’t been for the first one being free. Now I can’t wait to read them. Beautifully written, romantic without all the nonstop sex that some writers feel that is necessary to sell their books.
I love all of Marie Force’s books in the Gansett series, but this is probably my favorite. Jenny had experienced a tragedy that touched something in me. I didn’t know anyone personally killed on that day but I watched it all happen.
Plus, I loved Alex. He was so irreverent but charming, nonetheless. His love for his mother and his caring of her, showed what his true character was.
I would absolutely recommend this book, as well as the entire series!
Loved this book. It was hard to put down!
Love the characters in the Gansett Island series…all richly written and relatable. Enjoyed each visit to the island with every book read.
If I had known it was soft porn, I would never have bought it.
Loved it! Have now read the entire Gansett Island series. Marie Force makes books come alive.
This story was such a great read. There was no down time. It kept me know interested the entire time. It was difficult to put down!
