Brides & Beaches Romance Book 5
Riley finds a watch and contacts the owner, only to learn he's the lead singer and guitarist for a hugely popular band. Evan is only on the island of Getaway Bay for a friend's wedding, but he's intrigued by the gorgeous woman who returns his watch. Can they make a relationship work when they're from two different worlds?
Riley Randall has worked the front desk at Your Tidal Forever for eight years. Eight years of smiling at new brides, being excited for her friends as they find Mr. Right, and working to ensure every wedding is spectacular.
And she wants her own Mr. Right and beautiful beach wedding.
When she finds a watch on an airplane, she manages to track down the owner—an Evan Garfield, lead singer for Georgia Panic, the #1 rock band in the country. Maybe even the world. Riley retreats, because Evan's not a permanent resident of Getaway Bay, and there's no way a superstar like him would be interested in a nobody like her.
Oh, but Evan is interested, and he manages to find Riley even after she flees the coffee shop where she met him to return the watch. As they start a romance on the island, Evan feels like he's falling quickly.
But his agent needs him in LA. The band has some hard-nosed negotiating to do with their record label. New proposals are made for Evan to a solo artist. Will he be able to navigate the potholes of his career and keep Riley in his life? Or will she be forever destined to watch others find their happily-ever-after?

My Review:
This light, sweet read makes a perfect escape. Riley and Evan are an adorable and frustrating pairing. They’re both past the first blush of youth, so, while that makes them more likely to talk things through rather than jumping to conclusions, it also means they’re both a bit set in their ways. Relationships haven’t been a priority for Evan because he’s been burned before, but Riley just might be the answer to her prayers. Everyone around her is pairing off and moving forward with their lives, leaving Riley feeling lost and alone. The handsome man who owns the watch she found intrigues her in ways no one else has before. I loved watching this pair of opposites learn to navigate their differences to find common ground and overcome the baggage they’re both still carrying. I received a complimentary advanced copy of this book from the author.
