Now he's returned home to the sand and salty breeze of the North Carolina Outer Banks so he can open The Last Call, a beach bar nestled among the dunes of the Atlantic.Five years ago, Gabby Ward drunkenly threw herself at her best friend's brother, only to have her young heart crushed. Hunter is back but Gabby is content to stay far away from him and his dangerously charming ways.

Working together day in and day out proves problematic for two reasons Gabby realizes her feelings for Hunter are still very much alive, while Hunter struggles to break through to Gabby's cold heart. What starts out as a mutual business arrangement soon turns into a passion that neither can deny.But when the pro surfing tour comes knocking and Hunter has a chance to reclaim his former glory, hard choices lie ahead for both of them.Choices that could destroy what they have built or take them further than they could ever dare to hope in their second chance at romance.… (plus d'informations)

It got much better once Gabby got over her stubborn anger over feelings not returned from when they were still in high school. It went on too long but I persevered. ( )

Wow...this book was absolutely fantastic!! I am a huge fan of Sawyer Bennett's and didn't think anything could top her Off series books. I was WRONG! With it's wonderful characters, humor and fast paced storyline this book is one of her best and I can't wait for more in this series. Everyone must read this!

Gabby has loved him practically all of her life. After he broke Hunter broke her heart on high school graduation day, she figured the best way to keep him away from her was to show him her bitchy side.

Hunter never expected he would be so drawn to her. Let's face it, she was like his little sister. Dang! She was his sister's best friend and they were like family. Let's face it, his feelings for Gabby are not what a brother would feel for his sister!

Our story blossoms in this hot turmoil of emotions between Hunter and Gabby. She is struggling to show her independence fighting the double standard that women cannot succeed in the man's world of construction. Being thrown together with Hunter as she remodels his newly acquired bar The Last Call is enough to drive the girl crazy.

Hunter is trying to do the right thing. He retired as the world's second best surfer on the tour in order to help his twin brother Brody. After a 7 year prison sentence for murder, Brody has a long road ahead of him to acclimate himself back to his previous life and needs the love and support of his family.

Loved this story. The banter between Hunter and Gabby is the typical love/hate banter you would expect of junior high level romance. It takes Brody to call out what is happening to make Hunter face his interaction with Gabby is nothing more than frustration at a blossoming romance that is being denied. This makes for comedic situations and hot romantic scenes. Their love affair is definitely not ordinary and the love that evolves is a once in a lifetime gift. I cannot wait to read the next book in this series when Brody will be the focus of attention. ( )

3 stars but rounding up to 3.5 for a scene toward the end where Gabby actually trusts her boyfriend Hunter OVER the scheming ex-girlfriend. Gabby and Hunter have a complicated relationship where Gabby has been in love with him since childhood but as her best friends big brother, he was not going there. When they have a chance encounter when she is 18, it goes wrong and she is not able to recover from the hurt or stop loving him. They way their story develops is fun to read if a little predictable. I would have rated this book higher if we had some kind of back story on Brody. Brody is the identical twin brother the brings Hunter home from the pro surf circuit on his release from prison and is so critical to many plot twists yet we end not knowing more than he killed a guy. I realize the next book is about him but having this info held back took away from this story. Looking forward to the next in the series to at least better understand what I just finished reading. Why did Hunter come home? How is it that a med student gets jail time? Why is Brody so broken? Agh so many questions. ( )
