Temptation on Ocean Drive

The Sunshine Sisters, Book 2

By: Jennifer Probst

Narrated by: Laurie West, Tor Thom

A heart-stirring novel of unrequited love and second chances by New York Times bestselling author Jennifer Probst.

Young widow Bella Sunshine-Caldwell is focused only on raising her daughter and running the family business, Sunshine Bridal. There’s no time for romance - especially with her fellow wedding planner, Gabe, whom she’s growing increasingly attracted to. He’s too enterprising to stay in Cape May for long, anyway. And too tall, dark, and handsome to be anything but a heartbreaker.

Every woman in town has her sights on Gabe Garcia. The only woman he has eyes for doesn’t seem interested. All he wants is to fall in love, be a father, and settle down. As he and Bella work together on a magical winter wedding, the distance between them closes, the nights grow warmer, and Bella might be seeing Gabe for who he really is: a man worth the effort.

But all it takes is a single rumor for these two hearts’ fragile love story to shatter. And now the happy ending Bella and Gabe hoped for is something they’re going to have to fight for.

Loved Gabe and his heart - and both narrators were wonderful.

This was a lovely story, although Bella was a bit frustrating never believing in Gabe but believing small town gossip. Particularly being a widowed and single mother. She should have known better. Gabes struggles to deal with having women judge him by his looks was a refreshing take of objectifying people.

The big show of her true feelings at the ending was terrific.

Great series.

Temptation on Ocean Drive is a great story. Ever read a book and think, I want more? Yeah! This series is that for me, I find myself dreaming of Cape May. I want to know the Sunshine sisters and all the people of the small beach town. I’m hooked on these characters, the story and the planning of the beautiful weddings and parties. Books like this series are the reason why I love books, I open a book and I’m transported into a whole new world full of laughter, love and endless hours of enjoyment.

Sexy romance!

Loved Bella and Gabe's story! Engaging likeable characters! Sexy and sensual writing and fabulously narrated by Laurie West and Tor Thorn👌

Very good!

This is the best series and this book was as good as the first!! I loved Gabe and Bella and Zoe and loved seeing their story come together.

Okay story bad narration.

After disliking the “hero” in the first book in this series I absolutely loved Gabe who is a partner in the bridal with the Sunshine sisters. He’s personable, professional, talented and extremely good looking which is an asset to the business. Unfortunately the gossiping women in town and predatory female wedding guests constantly speculating that he must be a player sets up a negative storyline that really bugged me. Bella is a great mother and wedding planner but she’s traumatized with insecurity after her beloved husband’s death five years ago. I had great empathy for her history but quickly grew tired of her jumping to conclusions and pushing Gabe away because of gossip. The storyline is predictable and again I survived it rather than enjoyed it. I’m sorry to say that neither narrator was impressive because simply reading copy is boring.
