Description

In a coastal town where the ocean's whispers hold tales of love and laughter, Fox Thornton thrives as the charming and adventurous king crab fisherman. His magnetic personality draws attention from all, and he wears his flirtatious reputation like an easygoing badge of honor. Yet beneath the sun-soaked exterior lies a man yearning for deeper connections, one that others fail to see. The waves of his life take an unexpected turn when the Bellinger sisters enter his world, disrupting the currents he's become comfortable navigating.

The story immerses readers in a lively exploration of romance and self-discovery as Fox finds himself irresistibly drawn to one sister in particular. Amidst quirky town happenings and the relentless call of the sea, tensions rise and passions ignite. What unfolds is a heartfelt journey where vulnerabilities are exposed, and the true nature of love is challenged. With every twist, Fox must decide if he can dive beneath the surface and fully embrace the complexities of the heart.

This is the second book in the Bellinger Sisters series by Tessa Bailey. While the first book focused on Piper and Brendan's love story, this second book focuses on her sister Hannah Bellinger and Fox Thornton's love story. I absolutely loved this book. 'It Happened One Summer' had me hooked from the first page and I loved Piper and Brendan's story so much but even in that book, you could feel the connection between Hannah and Fox as soon as they appeared in the same chapter so I just KNEW I was going to love this book even more! I loved Hannah as a character. It's very rare that a main character doesn't do something to annoy the hell out of me but I couldn't fault Hannah at all. Yes, she struggled with confidence issues at the beginning of the story but who doesn't from time to time? Fox was amazing. He was charming, witty and all round a pretty good main character. Sometimes Friends-to-Lovers can be a bit hit or miss for me but Tessa Bailey has won me over with this one! The way Hannah and Fox connected through their music and their insecurities made for a perfect friendship that turned them into a formidable team together. It was so genuine and emotional, I loved it.
