Blurb:

Travel writer Allie Sparks has one goal: to find the story that will save her career. So here she is, visiting her bestie on picturesque Crescent Island—with sun-warmed beaches, the briny smell of the ocean, and rumors of a secret astrologer-matchmaker who guarantees love. Of course, Allie doesn’t believe in any of that stuff. If anything, she’ll prove it’s a total scam.

Ryan Parker believes in love—just not right now. He’s focused on expanding his family’s barbeque business, finding investors, and keeping his too-big Great Dane puppy from jumping on everyone, including his sister’s pretty, whiskey-eyed best friend. Besides, falling for a tourist is definitely not in his astrological forecast.

Allie is doing everything she can to resist the charm of the town and its beauty, not to mention her attraction to Ryan. But there’s a lot more happening on Crescent Island than anyone knows…and when her story goes to print, this tiny, close-knit town might never be the same.

My Review - 4 of 5 stars - 

An interesting premise for a story. I enjoyed Allison as she learned how to relax, to see the good in everything rather than the negative, and realize where her anxiety came from. Ryan was a bit wrapped up in the business side of his life, but it was fun watching him find more to his life. There were some secrets around town as Allison learned about the history of this wonderful place. Witty conversation was sprinkled throughout, though I found the story just a little too long. Overall, it was a good book.
