My Review

I received a free copy from the author and voluntarily reviewed it.

I picked this book up when I had a stressful and busy week and just wanted a comforting and fun read. And that’s exactly what this book was. I enjoyed reading about Bo and Neptune who meet on a cruise organizing by the paranormal dating agency Jinx. Neither are there to find romance, but they connect and they grow closer. While the title mentions it as a summer fling, it’s obvious from the start that there are deeper emotions involved.

I really liked this romance, both Bo and Neptune were great characters and I loved them together. I liked their banter and the way they opened up to each other. There are some great scenes with them getting to know eahc other and telling each other about themselves. I liked seeing Neptune telling Bo about his past, including the people who mattered to him as well as events from history he experienced. And their visit/date to Rome was so fun. I liked seeing Bo have a chance to relax and think of what she wanted besides her work.

This was such a lovely romance story and I really enjoyed reading about these two. I thought the setting aboard a cruise ship was fun too, although I would’ve liked to see a bit more of the ship and their experience of the cruise. There is a cameo appearance of the couple from book 5 as Bo works for Mei. I also appreciated how there is a bit about Neptune’s powers and we got to see some of them in action.

To summarize: This was a sweet and cute romance between Bo and sea god Neptune, there’s a bit of steam as well. I really liked these two together, I liked their banter and the way they opened up to other about themselves. Their date in Rome was such a great scene. The cruise ship setting was fun too and I liked learning a bit about Neptune’s powers and history. There is no drama and I liked the epilogue.
