Every first love deserves a second chance

June Hamilton left home to pursue her dream of dancing on Broadway. Seven years later, she has one regret: Mel Preston, her teenage crush and onetime summer love. Now a single dad and the head of maintenance at Starlight Point, her family's amusement park, Mel's easy smile still makes her heart beat in triple time. But June came home with a plan. She would spend the summer revitalizing the park's aging theaters, then make a graceful exit back to the big city. Until Mel and his young son start making a powerful claim on her emotions, and June faces an impossible decision…

I GIVE THIS BOOK: 


MY THOUGHTS: 5 Stars

I highly enjoyed Carousel Nights! The setting was fun, who doesn't love an amusement park? And the characters were charming, I especially loved Mel's son Ross - so cute!

June was a great heroine. I liked that she was so caring and thoughtful of others, in her business she could have been completely different. I loved seeing her with her family, such fun and you can see they all really love each other.

The romance between June and Mel was sweet. I loved watching them reconnect. Mel's a great father, the proof of that is how great and well-behaved his son is, and he's also just a very caring guy.

I didn't realize before I read this that it was part of a series, or if I had known it I'd forgotten that, but it definitely stands on its own. I do want to read the first book, which tells the story of June's older brother Jack.

All in all, this was a great read. Perfect for a day at the beach, relaxing by the pool, or anytime really. I definitely recommend the book to any fan of contemporary romantic fiction.

I received a complimentary copy of this book to review. I was asked to give my honest opinion of the book - which I have done.

Everyone's counting on him

With the sudden death of his father, Jack Hamilton finds himself running the family amusement park, Starlight Point. His first job? Balance the books, and that means raising the rent for vendors like baker Augusta Murphy.

Gus won't accept the new contract…not without a fight. She rallies the other vendors and sets out to negotiate with Jack. At least, she tries. How do you play hardball with a man who's charming and kind and still grieving? Gus needs to figure it out fast, because the closer she gets to Jack, the more she risks losing everything.
