Marina Adair - Hopeless Romantic review

 I was excited to go back to Rome and get Beckett’s story! Beckett was quite the character. I enjoyed her strength and her compassion. Her story was slightly sad but I was SO GLAD she had Levi in her life, even if she didn't recognize that right away. He was such a cheerleader for her and gave her what she didn't know she needed. She was fiercely protective of her family and she did what she needed to do to take care of them, even at her own expense. She was quirky and fun and I loved the breath of fresh air she brought to Levi. Levi had his own trauma and sadness he was dealing with in his life and he was drawn to Beckett. I loved the push/pull between them and the respect they had for one another. I couldn't read this book fast enough and I definitely recommend this read!



A funny and delightful story from the New York Times bestselling author of the St. Helena Vineyard series that fans of Avery Flynn, Kristan Higgins, and Helena Hunting will love.

Set against the breezy backdrop of coastal Rhode Island, bestselling author Marina Adair’s latest novel asks whether two of a small town’s biggest hearts can learn to put themselves first—in the name of love. . .

As caregiver for her autistic brother, Beckett Hayes knows how meaningful a little extra help can be when life happens. Which is why she runs Consider It Done, a personal concierge service in her small town. Her job also gives her the flexibility to follow her passion, being Rome, Rhode Island’s unofficial special needs advocate, training emotional support companions in her spare time. There’s not much of that, though, and certainly not enough for serious dating. It’s always been family first for Beck. But one unquestionably gorgeous, good-natured man is suddenly a temptation that’s getting tougher to resist . . .

Sixteen years ago, Levi Rhodes was ready to sail off into the sunset—literally. But then his father’s death and his sister’s unexpected pregnancy postponed his sailing scholarship and the adventures he had planned. Running the family marina and bar was the least he could do for his grieving mother. Plus, his niece needed a father-figure. But now that she’s in high school and has her bio-dad in her life, Levi’s wondering if it’s time to get his sea legs under him again. Or he was wondering, until curvy, caring Beck showed up in his bar, and then in his dreams . . .
