Tony
Black is the hottest surfer on the planet. He travels the world throughout the
year and spends his summers on Cape Cod with his friends, at the Seaside
cottages in Wellfleet, Massachusetts. He’s got his choice of women, but Amy
Maples is the one he wants. Fourteen years ago she was his for an entire
summer, until a devastating accident changed everything, and what they had
seemed like it had never existed—at least for her.
Amy
Maples is as consistent as the day is long. She’s spent summers on Cape Cod
forever, she always does the right thing, and she’s spent years trying to
reclaim the heart of Tony Black, the only man she’s ever loved. She’s back for
a summer of fun with her friends at Seaside, only this year she’s been offered
the opportunity of a lifetime thousands of miles away, and she’s decided to try
one last time to reconnect with Tony. But having a relationship with Tony means
dealing with her past—and dealing with her past may knock her to her knees.
So
finally we get to Amy and Tony’s story and all I can honestly say is “WOW! I
didn’t see that coming!”
So we
start with Amy, Tony and the rest of the gang for drinks before Jamie &
Jessica’s wedding. Amy has to decide if she wants make a huge change and accept
Duke Ryder’s job offer and leave for Australia, because after years of being separated
from the man she loves, she has decided that she needs to move on with her
life. But before she actually says decides, she wants to try with Tony one last
time; but he tells her, her loves her live a friend and to go to Australia.
Tony
is in love with Amy, but its buried deep and covered by anger and confusion.
When he tells her to go, he is left feeling like he is screwing up the biggest
and most important part of his life.
Now
this is Amy’s last summer at Seaside and she tries to clear the air with Tony,
but she has already erected the walls to protect herself and Tony defiantly
feels the chill. But it doesn’t stop him from watching out for her, even if it
makes him feel like a stalker. Tony tries to get Amy to sit down and talk, to
let him explain why he is not the man worthy of her, but past hurts arise and
you are left wondering, will this be the end of the summer of love at Seaside.
As
always Melissa Foster blows me away with her characters, writing and the plot!
This story literally blew my mind, made me cry and kept me gripped till the end
of the book, even though my heart was breaking.
I give
Seaside Secrets 10 out of 10 and recommend that you keep a box of Kleenex with
you, as you will need it.
