Fall in love at Bayside, where sandy beaches, good friends, and true love come together in the sweet small towns of Cape Cod. Bayside Summers is a series of standalone romance novels featuring fiercely loyal heroes and sassy, empowered women. They’re fun, flirty, flawed, and easy to relate to.In Sweet Love at Bayside… a fabulous job working with his best friends and brother, and a thriving business in Washington, DC, which he’ll be returning to at the end of the summer. Spending time with his family is great, but being back on Cape Cod has unearthed painful memories. When sweet, smart, and overly cautious Desiree Cleary moves in next door, Rick is drawn to the sexy preschool teacher, and she just might prove to be the perfect distraction.
Running an art gallery was not in preschool teacher Desiree Cleary’s plans, but after being tricked into coming to her impetuous, unreliable mother’s aid, she’s stuck spending the summer with the rebellious half sister she barely knows and a misbehaving dog. If that’s not frustrating enough, she can’t escape the sparks igniting with her strikingly handsome and pushy neighbor, Rick, who makes all her warning bells go off.
Passion ignites as Desiree and Rick spend long summer nights sharing heartfelt confessions and steamy kisses. For the first time in years Rick is enjoying life again instead of hiding behind mounds of work miles away from his family. Desiree has touched him in a way that makes him want to slow down. Only slowing down means dealing with his demons, and he isn’t sure who he’ll be when he comes out the other side.

This was a beautiful book. I just loved Desiree and Rick together. They bring what each of them needs. It was awesome to watch Desiree blossom and find herself. To gain watch she has been looking for since her childhood. Rick has been avoiding the Cape and running from memories, but this summer may be the turning point for him. What story couldn’t be good with a mischievous dog. I instantly gobbled this story up. It has such an easy flow to it and all the characters are fantastic. I would highly recommend this one!
I am so excited to read the next Sweet with Heat series by Addison Cole. This story flowed so smoothly and I enjoyed the linking between this new series and the other Sweet with Heat series at Seaside. Great characters brought this story to life and have opened up the door to another delightful beach read series.
The road to fulfillment is not always the one we plan for ourselves. Hearts break, life changes and wiser heads prevail, but we can take pride in the fact that our choices, though not always right, brought us to where we were meant to be. Sweet Love at Bayside is one couple’s road map to finding home. Rick and Desiree are both capable people with strong opinions, but their lives have sort of stalled when it comes to happiness. He’s building a business. She’s losing herself in responsibilities that are not completely her own. Can two people with so much love to give, make time to find something special together? Cole makes the complicated simple with an overflow of wisdom and heart. Realism does not always have to be complicated to find rewarding.
Enjoyable
Good story about Rick and Desiree and the many family links that will bring more stories. Cosmos is absolutely delightful.
I have read several in this series and have always enjoy them. Look forward to reading more of her books.
5 Stars for “Sweet Love at Bayside” eBook ARC Review
I fell in love with this area and these characters in the last Seaside Summers book (“Whispers at Seaside”). The men are big and burly but oh so sweet it makes my teeth hurt!
This story follows Rick and Desiree who each have their own issues to overcome. I love that it has more depth than your average romance book. I really enjoyed following their story and can’t wait to see what else is going on around Bayside Resorts.
Highly recommend!
When Desiree turns up at Bayside worried about her mother little did she think she would have no need to worry let alone fall in love and up-root her life. Summoned to Bayside under false pretences, Desiree’s mother led her to believe that she was at deaths door but instead she just needs her and her sister violet to come look after her house/studio whilst she goes goes off to “find herself”
When Rick Savage first meets Desiree there is no denying the instant attraction between them, but both of them know that they are only in the Cape for the summer, so they make it a fling to remember. I really loved how Rick brought out the naughty side to Desiree and loved watching her grow from this innocent school teacher to vixen. Can they make it more than a summer fling to remember and make it a lifetime of romance?
Addison has turned one hot story into a sinfully sweet version that you will just love.
This was my favorite Addison Cole book so far! I say that with every new book, but this surpassed all my expectations. I love the insta-love between Rick and Desiree. Rick was the perfect Hero for me, he knew what he wanted and never wavered. I love that Rick was able to help Desiree become more comfortable within herself. Such a beautiful love story that I never wanted to end!
Amazing book! Desiree and Rick are a great couple even though it took them a little bit to get to that point. The story was told wonderfully with just the right amount of laughter, drama, fun and tears. Add to all that a cute little mischievous dog and you have a great story. This book is just such a fun read you won’t want to put it down. Addison Cole is becoming a top author for me. I so highly recommend this book.
I really like this family!
A great beginning for these stories set in Bayside. The characters are believable – not perfect. What a mother Desiree and Violet have. There are lots of friends for future stories. There are some absolutely laugh out loud moments. There is also Cosmos – the swimming pool loving dog. I really enjoyed this story.
Oh My Goodness…another winner from Addison Cole. The writing of this book is wonderful, sweet, sexy, and perfect. The amazing friendship, the beautiful setting, and the oh so sexy Rick Savage make this a book that I could not put down. I was so into this story that I read it early in the morning, middle of the afternoon, and late at night. I just could not put it down.
There is enough heat in the story to make the reader blush yet leave the juiciest part up to their imagination. I loved the teases at Rick and Desiree’s relationship and how they were managing to become a hot steamy couple. The idea that the better their relationship was meant the better the friends were fed gave glimpses at the heat that happens between them.
Lizzie made me laugh, while she had an extremely small part of in the story she was the one who set it all in motion. She sent cryptic notes to both her daughters making them rush to the family home in Cape Cod. Then she ran leaving them with a mess and Cosmos. While she will never earn a mother of the year award she did make Desiree and Violet come together after years of being apart and she inadvertently got Rick and Desiree to meet each other again.
Addison Cole is so talented and I am so excited to continue this series. If you are looking for a sweet friendship, heated relationship, and a wonderful story this is the book for you.
Sweet Love at Bayside is book one in the Sweet with Heat: Bayside Summers series. Rick and Desiree can’t help but find themselves attracted to each other. Their passion ignites as they spend time together, sharing parts of themselves with the other. But what can come of it after the summer? Their attraction explodes off the page, and their story kept me hooked throughout. I really enjoyed this book.
Wow!!! We are once again back in the Cape. I loved Sweet Love At Bayside. It was such a cute and swoon worthy story that had me from the get go.
When Desiree catches the eye of Rick Savage he leaves her literally soaking. The next day they come face to face again thanks to a doggy escapee and thats all it takes for a summer romance to blossom, but what happens when it’s time for them both to return home and get back to their real lives will they be able to make it work and stay together?
A beautiful 5 stars from me, grab your copy now!!!
Sweet Love at Bayside is another wonderful romantic story that pulls you in from beginning to end. from Addison Cole. Great story of sisters connecting after so many years apart and laying the past to rest. Rick and Desiree’s story was great with a lot of heart and emotion and the importance of family.
A great summer read! It’s sweet and heartwarming. It captured my heart as it pulled at my heartstrings. I loved the connection and chemistry between the characters. I enjoyed the storyline and it’s entertaining. Looking forward to reading more.
Sweet Love at Bayside bring together friends and family that love each other, but they also have issues to resolve. While dealing with those issues we get a sweet love story that brings the heat, and make you want to be a fly on the wall. All of this takes place in a small town in Cape Cod surrounded by friends and family.
I truly enjoyed Rick and Desiree’ story, and look forward to the rest of the books in this Series. I volunteered to review an Advance Reader Copy of this book.
Sweet Love at Bayside by Addison Cole was a fun and very entertaining story. This book made you laugh and definitely made you fall for these great characters. This was a very well written story that captures you from the very start and holds you to the end. I couldn’t put this book down a real page turner. Desiree Cleary is a preschool teacher who has been tricked into spending the summer with her sister running her mother’s art gallery, a mother she hardly knows. Before heading to meet up with her mother she is captivated by the hot guy on a jet ski, when said guy decided to drench her. Rick Savage is the co-owner of the Bayside resort, while out on his jet ski with his brother and friend he spots the gorgeous girl on shore he can’t seem to stop staring deciding he wants to meet her, he races to shore and he unfortunately causes water to splash the beauty on the beach. This is where you will absolutely fall for these great characters. They are both on Cape Cod for the summer and find meeting each other is a nice distraction or is there more to it. This was a great sweet with heat story that I absolutely recommend. This is definitely a must read and one great start to a new series. I voluntarily reviewed an advance reader copy of this book.
Rick and Desiree are absolutely wonderful together. Desiree comes to the Cape thinking her mother is dying, and also hoping to spend time with her older sister, Violet. Rick is spending time at the Cape with his family as well, working a business deal.
Both of these characters have family issues to face, Rick needs to confront the death of his father years ago; while Desiree needs to deal with her abandonment issues she’s had since her mother and sister left when she was little.
The two of them come together and find something special, but is it a summer love, or a forever love?
