BLURB ➼
For as long as Kyle Egan can remember, he has wanted only one thing: to run his own boat charter company. Not that he has much to complain about, as the lead charter boat captain at the Indigo Royal Resort in St. Thomas USVI. He gets to spend his days out on the water, never has to wear a tie, and works alongside his best friend, Drea Miller, who happens to be the only other thing he wants.
Drea Miller has been crushing on her best friend Kyle since the moment she saw him five years ago. Unfortunately, she is fully aware that he doesn’t see her as more than a friend— oh, and the niece of his bosses. Working for the family-owned resort with her three annoyingly overprotective uncles has always been what she wanted, but lately she’s started to wonder what else life might hold. If she can’t have the guy she wants, maybe it’s time that she makes another dream a reality.
When an encounter with a guest brings out the truth, Kyle and Drea are left trying to navigate their feelings, but can their new love survive a revelation they never saw coming?
“No one said love was always sparkles and glitter, baby girl. There are those moments but most of the time it’s bad jokes, grilled cheese sandwiches, and just being content in one another.”
ARC REVIEW ➼
Can’t Fight This Feeling is the debut novel from Claire Hastings and I CAN NOT WAIT to see what is coming up next for her. This book completely sucked me in to the tropical paradise resort that is full of love and family.
Drea had an unconventional life growing up. She lost her parents tragically when she was 6 months old, but was raised by her three overprotective uncles in the Caribbean resort. Kyle works for the resort as one the boat captains and is also Drea’s best friend. I loved the easy going feeling of their friendship, but they both had INSANE amounts of chemistry. Kyle is super sweet and seriously the perfect boyfriend. He is so caring of not only Drea, but his mother.
The secondary characters in this story were fantastic and I loved every single on of them from Drea’s three uncles and her aunt to her best friend, Leona and Kyle’s best friend, Dalton. They all added so much to this story in a different way.
Can’t Fight This Feeling is such a fun and sweet friends to lovers romance that will transport you to paradise. A MUST READ and the perfect escape.
