Review of It Happened One Summer (Bellinger Sisters, #1) by Tessa Bailey




 My Rating: 5 out of 5 Stars


This one was a quick read for me due to the fact that I couldn't put it down!


The book follows LA party girl, Piper, and her music obsessed sister, Hannah, as she tries to make a go of independent living in the coastal town of Westport. There she encounters a bar left to the sisters by their father, an estranged family member, and most importantly a aloof, but hunky fisherman named Brendan.

As she begins to put down roots in Westport, she not only forms a relationship with Brendan, but with the people of Westport and the bar she came to inherit. Piper might seem shallow on the surface, but she is so much more than glitz and glam. She has a compassionate and caring side, along with a charisma that is best described as her "sparkle"; both of which make her quire likeable.

The male portion of this duo, Brendan, is a stickler for routine and balance. Because of this, he seems a bit cold at first, but soon after he meets Piper, he begins to let loose. The romance between the two is both steamy and sweet, the cutest facet of their relationship, to me, being the fact that Piper calls it her "recharging station" whenever Brendan hugs her!

Not a lot of angst or suspense in this one, but certainly enough action (both in and out of bed) to hold ones interest.

Yet another solid novel by Tessa Bailey. Can't wait to read the next book in the series!
