About this listen

Elle Kennedy's next spicy and emotional romance in the blockbuster Avalon Bay series.

College student Cassie Soul hasn’t spent an entire summer in Avalon Bay in years, not since her parents divorced and her mother spitefully whisked her away to Boston. Now that her grandmother is selling the boardwalk hotel that’s been in their family for five decades, Cassie returns to the quaint beach town to spend time with family, ring in her twenty-first birthday…and maybe find herself a summer fling.

On her first night in town, she finds the perfect candidate: Tate Bartlett, Avalon Bay’s fun-loving golden boy.

Tate, sailing instructor and lovable player, is no stranger to flings. In fact, he’s always down for a good time. But the moment he meets Cassie, he knows she’s not the girl you play games with. Cassie is gorgeous, hilarious, and, frankly, the coolest person he’s ever met. The last thing he wants to do is risk breaking her heart, and so he reluctantly puts her in the friend-zone…only to realize he made a huge mistake. Soon, his attraction to Cassie becomes impossible to ignore. He wants that fling now. Big-time.

And maybe even something more.

As Cassie and Tate walk the line between friends and lovers, they’re about to discover that their situation is the least complicated part of this equation. Because Avalon Bay is full of secrets—and their relationship might not survive when those secrets come to light.

A Macmillan Audio production from St. Martin’s Press.

Obsessed with these characters and storyline

Loved loved loved! Elle is so great. There was a lot going on apart from the love story which I really enjoyed. Lots of family drama that made my heart hurt but in a good way. I like books that make me feel and this one sure did

Adored this book!!

Elle Kennedy did it again!! The Avalon Bay series is by far my favorite series. The way you can connect with the characters is unmatched. I loved reading this book. The story was so good and the connection between both good girl complex and bad girl reputation was so well done. Please please Elle keep writing more in this series. I love this story line between all three books. This was so well done and made me fall in love with Tate and Cassie!

4 STARS

The perfect summer beach read! Equally sweet and steamy with a great cast of character and a plot conflict I didn’t see coming.

Love the plot but the author didn’t do her research

I love Elle Kennedys books but her Haitian character was obviously not researched at all. Haitians don’t speak French or talk with a French accent. They speak creole. A totally different language that was a mix of African and French languages developed as a result of the transatlantic slave trade. The narrator uses a French accent every time Cassie’s step mother speaks but if she was really Haitian she would not speak french. While Cassies stepsisters may go to a French school, they would most certainly speak creole in the home, not French. These are very important details that deserve to be given time and attention if you are going to have a character from another culture than your own.

I really enjoyed this

A great story ! Loved the characters. I had read the first 2 Avalon Bay books so it was fun to hear about characters from those 2 books. Definitely had some twists and turns. A+. Can’t wait for another book by Elle Kennedy

Too long

It wasn’t my favorite but I enjoyed the story. Could have easily been much shorter.

So good - much better than the first two

I’m embarrassed by how much I liked this book and it’s almost entirely because of the AMAZING job Caitlyn Elizabeth did as Cassie. She did so much more than just read the book - she brought Cassie and Tate and all of the ancillary characters to life in full technicolor 3D. Really, really impressed by her. I miss Tate already.

Great narrators

This was my favorite out of the series. The writing just felt a little more mature. Gate and Finger were so cute. Great friends to lovers, girl next door, summer fling, HEA.
