ARC Review: Tempted in the Tropics by Tracy March

Title:  Tempted in the Tropics (A Suddenly Smitten Novel) Author:  Tracy March Publisher/Publication Date:  Entangled Bliss, September 9, 2013 Format/Source:  E-ARC, Publisher   Amazon | B&N | Kobo Books   Book Summary   The only thing they agree on is the sultry heat between them.   Nothing’s more important to Paige Ellerbee than her struggling bakery, Sweet Bee’s. When Lane Anderson, the temporary new doctor hot enough to rival McDreamy, moves in next door, though, she’s sure things are looking up. Until he threatens her business in their first conversation.    Lane just wants to practice medicine responsibly—not argue with the flighty bakery owner next door. But when he finds himself traveling down to the Caribbean to play guitar for Paige’s best friend’s wedding, suddenly the sight of the blonde in a bikini eclipses the fact they can’t agree on anything. And as their vacation romance grows, his reservations about starting something after getting burned by love are washed away like sand on the beach.    But once Paige and Lane land back home, will these polar opposites be able to forgive their feud and find lasting love?

 

My Thoughts

Tempted in the Tropics by Tracy March is a quick enjoyable read. The physical attraction between Dr. Lane Anderson & Paige was instantaneous. And yes there was growing tension between them because he was hampering her business. As a result of this tension, they maintained control over their feelings for one another—that is--until--they arrived in St. Lucia and the fun and excitement began. At that point in time, I couldn’t put the book down as Paige & Lane engaged in a no strings attached relationship, which didn’t always go as planned. Needless to say the heat was turned up a notch & there were bits of humor interspersed throughout as they found themselves in one humorous predicament after another.

I recommend reading Tempted in the Tropics. It’s a fun contemporary romance novel filled with magical treats, vivid details, heartfelt moments, and unexpected surprises.

Rating 4/5

I received an e-arc of Tempted in the Tropics from the publisher in exchange for an honest review, Thank You.
