Finding Hope: A Small Town Beach Romance (Half Moon Bay Book 1) by Erin Brockus

4 Stars

Slow burn, small town romance

The book started a bit slow for me, but it ended on a good note. This is definitely a slow burn romance. I was impressed with the research and information the author produced on the scuba diving/underwater scenes. 

Hope Collins is up for a big promotion at work, her boyfriend planned dinner at her favorite restaurant. Things are looking up for Hope, until they come crashing down. With her sister’s meddling, she is now entered into a raffle to win a dive resort on St. Croix, and she wins! Once she’s checked out that it is a legitimate opportunity, her life flips upside down over night. Moving from cold Chicago to bright, sunny St. Croix she starts over. With help from Patti, the office manager, and Alex, the dive instructor, Hope quickly learns about the resort.

Both Hope and Alex have a lot of hurts, but slowly open themselves up to a relationship and finding just what they didn’t know they were looking for.

Looking forward to what else Erin Brockus will produce in the Half Moon Bay Series!
