Hey! Heres' my review.

I loved going back to visit Whitecliff Bay in the Summer. I loved the first two Christmassy winter stories in the series and was glad to find that White Cliff Bay is just as much fun in the Summer. You don't need to have read the first two books to enjoy this one. 

The other day I found myself discussing sharks with a grade three student. "A friend of mine's favourite shark is the Angel shark," I told him. It's only as I sat down now to write this review that it occurred to me that this friend I told him about is actually a fictional character from this book. Well, that's how much I liked Darcy, I forgot she wasn't real. 

I was swept away by the romance. I trusted Holly to give me the happily ever after I needed, but at times, I wasn't sure how she was going to do it. Plenty of tension to keep me turning the pages. 

I received this book free from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.
