Leaving her previous life as a big-money banker behind, Julie now leads a quiet life as the owner of an inn on the island of Heaven’s Lake. Her life is a settled one of few surprises – that is until the most handsome man she’s ever laid eyes on, who’s close to physical perfection, turns up at her inn. His name is Cole, and he immediately steals the show – leaving hearts fluttering and panties melting all across town. Julie can’t help but feel afraid of him—she isn’t used to dealing with such attractive men. Still, Cole has an eye for Julie, and he’s pretty sure she’s got her eyes on him, too. He has ideas for her, if he could only get a moment alone with her. With a coastal storm approaching, Julie finds that her inn has emptied out, leaving only one guest—the man she can’t help but hunger after. But will Cole find his moment alone with Julie? Will Julie allow herself to succumb to the deeper desires she has? And what will happen when Cole’s stay is up? This ebook contains very hot and explicit descriptions of romantic activity. Only mature readers should download this book.

It is here that she retreats with her literary trio of cats, Ursula, Colette, and Daphne, to let her imagination wander. With a cup of tea in hand, she dreams up the sizzling plotlines and unforgettable adventures that have made her a bestseller.
This is exactly what I was looking for. It's sweet with a touch of sadness and a big heaping scoop of steam and adventure. I love how Cole pushes Julie's boundaries and the happiness that comes from trying something new and a bit taboo
This ends in a cliffhanger. There are three more books (chapters) available, I'm seriously debating if I order them The story is enjoyable - Julie has left the corporate life and purchased the inn her parents always took the family vacation at when she was little, not really realizing how much money it takes to run a place like this. Cole is as he puts it "A dog in the corporate world" she left. He is there to relax for a week. Now he's headed home. - what a dilemma. He leaves her is number will she call?
Always love Lucia Jordan's short nkvellas and this one is no exception. The characters are fan and so is the plot with the long distance aspect coming into play. Enjoy seeing real life scenarios in her writing. Absolutely Fab!!!
I enjoyed the reading. This is slightly different from the other books, but in a good way. As always, I look forward to reading more books from this author.
This book was good. Hot. Quick. I really don't like how this author's books come in so many parts. Each one is so short, that I think they could all be made into one book. I don't like when books are published that way just to make more money.
This was good, but quick. The steamy scenes were very sexy, but I felt their relationship progressed to the next level very suddenly. But overall, okay and a sweet story.
