This was an enjoyable romance taking place in an area close to me and to my heart. l found their jumping back and forth between San Francisco and Sausalito too easy, but other than that, it was a fun book. ( )

This was a very enjoyable romance. I did not want to put this book down. The characters were all likable. Tia gets a chance to be the head chef for her aunt on a dinner cruise. Tia and an old acquaintance, Leo, Who is going to be the captain on the yacht, are very good together. There are twists and turns in this relationship and they are well done. I received a copy of this book from Revell for a fair and honest opinion. ( )

All Summer Long by Melody Carlson is a delightful book that I really enjoyed! It has everything needed for great romance reading ~ a swoon worthy setting (San Francisco), realistic characters, an engaging story line, humor mixed in with second chances and the ups and downs of romance. Add in a few unexpected surprises and the story just gets better and better.

This book brought a smile to my face and a warmth to my heart ~ the kind you get when you read a wonderful romance story. I definitely recommend adding this book to your summer beach reads or for your reading pleasure any time of the year. I give it ... 4.5 Stars!

Thank you to Revell and Netgalley for the free gift of this book in exchange for an honest review. ( )

Even though All Summer Long is the second book in the “Follow Your Heart” series by Melody Carlson, you don’t need to read the first book first. This book opens with Tia, a culinary school graduate, working at a restaurant in a small town wishing for something more. Then she receives a call from her aunt in San Francisco asking her to come help remodel an old yacht into an upscale floating restaurant AND to be the chef.

She jumps on the opportunity and flies to San Francisco only to find that her aunt’s husband is in the hospital. So who picks her up at the airport? Only that cute boy she met at a camp 10 years earlier. Leo. Small world, huh? And he’s still just as good-looking and nice.

The book takes us on a trip through remodeling the boat, planning menus, and meeting new people. There’s also a little drama when Tia gets caught in the middle of some uncomfortable secrets. I got a sympathetic pit in my stomach when Leo’s fiancée asks her to keep some secrets from Leo.

It’s an easy read, and hard to put down. The plot is a little predictable…you’re pretty sure you know how it’s going to end but you’re not exactly sure how. Will everyone still be talking to each other at the end?

If you like a good clean romance with a little faith thrown in, you’ll like this book.

My only “complaint” is that I wish it had included some recipes. LOL! Some of those dishes Tia prepared had me drooling…

I received a free book from Revell Publishing (a division of Baker Publishing Group) in exchange for an unbiased review. ( )

Title: All Summer Long (Follow Your Heart Series #2)
Author: Melody Carlson
Pages: 320
Year: 2016
Publisher: Revell
My rating is 5 stars.
The story Melody Carlson shares with us is both light-hearted and thought provoking! The two main characters I paid most attention to were Tia D’Amico and Leo Parker. Tia is a chef who takes a job to cook on a boat for her Aunt Julie and Uncle Roland. For her, this is a new experience and a new adventure that she throws herself into 100%. Part of the reason is that she hopes by moving out her father will remarry and be happy.
Leo is the one to pick Tia up at the airport and shares with her that he is the captain of the boat. What makes the story really interesting is these two characters have a shared past that Tia is hoping to reignite. However, when she arrives in San Francisco her heart and world are turned upside down by the news Leo shares.
I really enjoyed the book as the story had characters that added a plethora of flavors to the tale developing around the lives of Tia and Leo. I could easily imagine some of the scenes as the author created the pictures via words that enhanced the novel. Sometimes the interaction between various characters would cause me to smile or laugh. There were a few times the novel’s scenes were somewhat sad, but nothing that made me cry as to me it highlighted the reality of life’s ups and downs.
It won’t take a reader long to devour the story and look for the next tale from Melody in the series, which will be available the summer of 2017. Readers can enjoy a small sample of the coming novel at the end of this book.
