Light and easy romance to read poolside or at the beach. Lucy Holloway is a forty year old NYC business attorney. She takes a month long holiday on Tenerife, an island off the coast of Spain. While there she meets Elena Garcia who is home for the summer before she starts physical therapy school in Washington DC. She is 28, a not alarming age gap. It starts as a summer fling slowly becoming more. When Elena’s father’s job is threatened Lucy doesn’t hesitate to help.

The island sounds beautiful and I was glad to learn a little more about it but most of the time is spent at the resort where Elena and her father work. The mystery about the father’s job resolves quickly and the culprit was easy to predict. Because it is a fling novel the heat kicks in early (before 20 percent). They do get to know each other better with back stories, but there isn’t build up or longing between the two. I did enjoy the epilogue seeing them few years later. A likable read but nothing that boosts it in to memorable or read again category.

Thank you to NetGalley and Ylva Publishing for the ARC in exchange for a voluntary review.
