Hunt Family #1-5
Meet Me in Myrtle Beach and More!: Hunt Family Series Complete 5-Book Box Set
The #1 bestselling series is now available as a box set. Take a trip to Myrtle Beach and get swept away in the romance of it all as the members of the Hunt family each find their happily ever after. The Hunt Family box set is a complete series that contains five full-length, sweet romances by bestselling romance author Brooke St. James.Meet Me in Myrtle Beach (Book 1)Paige Spears was on her way to a job interview when she first met Diane Hunt. The two of them made friendly conversation while waiting for their breakfast, and Diane ended up asking Paige to come work for her for the summer. Paige was reluctant about beginning her corporate career anyway, so she jumped at Diane's offer. As luck would have it, her first assignment was to spend a week in Myrtle Beach with Diane and her family. Paige quickly found herself in a car with a woman she'd just met, headed to a place she'd never been, and about to be on a vacation with people she didn't know. She thought she'd make the best of it and enjoy one last summer adventure before joining the real world. She had no idea this trip would change her life forever.Kiss Me in Carolina (Book 2)It's been said that the best time to find love is when you aren't looking for it. Rachel Stephens was solely focused on completing her last year of dental school and love wasn't even on her radar. She also wasn't excited about having London Ryder has a houseguest. The two weren't necessarily the best of friends, so when London came to L.A. to visit her A-list actor boyfriend, Rachel wondered why she asked to stay with her. In fact, she was beginning to wonder if this actor was really even London's boyfriend in the first place. Rachel never expected London to bring her along on a film shoot. She certainly never expected to spend an afternoon alone with the actor who might just turn out to be the man of her dreams.California’s Calling (Book 3)Charlotte Ritchie was traveling halfway across the world to attend her brother's wedding. She and a small group of family and friends planned on spending the week prior to the wedding volunteering at a rescue center in Kenya. Her new sister-in-law had grown up there with her missionary parents, and everyone thought it was the perfect way to celebrate the event. Falling in love might not have been on Charlotte's to-do list that week, but as we all know, life doesn't always turn out the way we plan. She would slip briskly into an intimacy from which she'd never recover.Back to the Beach (Book 4)Having a crush on someone who barely seems to notice you is never easy. It only leads to heartbreak and disappointment. Mia Hunt occasionally found herself in that very situation. Fortunately, her dream guy lived all the way across the country and their encounters were rare. Nico Torres had plans to spend a week on vacation with the Hunt family at their Myrtle Beach home, and Mia feared there'd be no escaping him. After their first encounter that week, she wasn't so sure she wanted to escape. She just hoped she could survive the trip without falling for him all over again. The last thing she needed was another broken heart.It’s About Time (Book 5)Evan Hunt had spent most of his adult life working as an environmentalist and living out of a duffle bag. It came as a total shock when his father suddenly confronted him about setting goals for his future. Evan wasn't much for following rules and his instinct was to simply ignore what his dad was saying. However, he decided it was time to set his sights on success just to prove to his family that he could do it. Just when it seemed like everything was coming together, Evan was involved in a serious motorcycle accident. He didn't expect this detour to change his life for the better.

Excellent dialog, creative and entertaining interaction
The Myrtle Beach series often had me laughing so often. The humorous family interplay was fun.
It was very entertaining.
I found myself often finding editorial needs, especially in punctuation, to create a smooth story line. I assume this is coming up later. If not, it would really help the flow and clarity.
Even without editing, I find this to be a humorous and touching break from routine life.

I read 4 of the 5 books in the series. The stories are based on an extended family whose matriarch has a large beach house at Myrtle Beach. The whole family gathers there for a week every summer. Each book is centered around a new couple who fall in love too quickly to be believable. The stories are fun if you want something light and predictable, and need an escape to the beach with a big family.

Every year, the Hunt family takes a vacation all together with their grandmother Diane Hunt and this box set shared five different family members who find love and each book somehow connects to that vacation each year at the beach. Sweet clean romance. Enjoyed for quick reads

A beautiful set
If books about how the grandchildren of Mrs. Hunt find love at the family Myrtle Beach home. Each couple bring their faith in God to make stronger relationships.

Good series
Short but sweet. I liked all the couples but Paige and Cody, and Evan and Annabel were definitely my favorite.

The stories were interesting and kept my interest. However, I was disturbed by the unnecessary fixation on sexy kissing. I didn't need to know how "his" kiss made her feel, or vice versa. For so-called Christian Fiction, there was near-pornographic descriptions. Ms. St. James could hardly be designated a Christian writer with such salacious passages in her novels.

This box set was a great way to be introduced to this author and her characters. I loved his family and how they stuck together and supported each other. It reminded me of my family at one time. DeeDee is the monarch and takes her signs from God as she slowly sets about match making. It's funny, heartwarming, and yes it's insta-love. Each book is different and has a unique flavor to it so you wont get bored. Each couple has their own set of issues to overcome which gives you a great emotional whirlwind. By the end of the last story you will not only love the family but find yourself wishing it wasn't over. A clean read where values are challenged, accepted and part of the norm. Family support and teasing keeps you laughing and smiling and leaves you all warm and fuzzy. I will definitely keep this author on my list and read more.

An enjoyable series at a great price!!
This was such An enjoyable series to read. I originally read each book on KU, but when I saw this special I had to grab this chance to put it into my library. This author does a great job with her character development and the storylines that she pens. This series is set in Myrtle Beach where an awesome mother and grandmother has her family come to spend time each year. The romances that develop are all clean, sweet and cherished. Enjoyable reading that will leave you sighing as you close the final page on each book.

Hunt Family, a Legacy of Love
These stories were so sweet and romantic, but more importantly, they showed what it means to trust GOd and put Him first in your relationships and in life. As I finished the last one, I was amazed at the legacy that Dee-Dee left. She loves and accepts everyone and that trait was passed down to her kids and grandkids. That in itself is an important lesson for each of us. I pray that even though I don’t have biological kids or grandkids, that God can use my example and show others the love of Jesus through me. Very well done!
