SUMMER OF LOVE by Carly Phillips
It sure has been fun, re-reading these older books of Carly Phillips. I had forgotten how crazy and funny the Costas clan was!
This is the second book in the Costas Sisters series and Zoe Costas’ story. Having recently left the Secret Service, Zoe has now started up a security specialist company along with Quinn and Connor. She is also living at her parents home since they now are fostering Sam, with the hopes of adopting her. When a strange guy shows up at Sam’s party, they all assume he is the temporary social worker on Sam’s case but in reality he is actually Sam’s Uncle Ryan.
When Zoe finds out that Ryan is not a social worker, she calls him on it and he tells her that he is Sam’s uncle. Both of them decide not to let the family know who Ryan really is until they get to know more about each other….which neither of them seem to mind because there is definite chemistry going on there! It is pretty funny how completely opposite these two are! When someone is threatening Sam, Zoe and Ryan work together to try and figure out what is going on and end up taking Sam to Boston where Ryan’s family lives.
The Baldwin’s way of life is night and day different from the Costas way of life. This was such a fun comparison! While working together, things are definitely heating up between Zoe and Ryan and have both of them feeling things that they have never felt before. The mystery behind the threats was fun and entertaining. I really enjoyed how everything played out in the end and really loved Zoe and Ryan’s happy ending.
Overall, Summer of Love by Carly Phillips was a fun and entertaining story with some great, colorful characters!
