Coastal Elite

Written by Kate Canterbary

Narrated by Connor Brown

Jordan Kaisall has problems. 

Business problems, political problems, cheating ex-girlfriend problems. He knows that a week away from the Washington D.C. Beltway won't do a damn bit of good for those problems, but his beach house in Montauk is exactly where he needs to be right now. 

April Veach has plans. 

Work plans, travel plans, try-everything-once plans. Montauk is keeping her plenty busy this summer between decorating wedding cakes and teaching yoga, and busy is good. But busy is also a lonely bed, and that wasn't part of her grand plan. 

After a weekend together, his problems and her plans take them in an unexpected direction.

Reviews for Coastal Elite

[karenhulseman · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

Jordan and April are a match made on Long Island heaven. He's not looking for Ms Right and she's just taking the time to enjoy her life on the island. When the ocean decides they are ready for a meet up, well you can't fool Mother Nature and allow her to take the job over for you.

If you are looking for a quick, hot read with a bit of a twist, then this story is RIGHT what you need to get you out of the summer reading slump. Although an interconnected story to Ms Canterbary's Walsh Family, seriously Coastal Elite stands on its own. I loved both characters equally and again completely in love with Kate Canterbary's ability to deliver real characters worth reading.

But... I did guess the twist. Which isn't why the 1/2 star reduction. The ending felt too quick. Now here's where I waiver. Was it really too quick? or am I the reader disappointed because I wanted more of the characters story? Yes, the jury is still out as I argue with myself over this one.

If you've not read Kate's stories and looking for an introduction, I would say this is a perfect book to read and decided.

There is something about Kate's books that just call out for curse words. At the start, at the end, at some point you are going to be exclaiming (possibly out loud) and it won't be safe for work. Not because it's bad, but because you have been so surprised, so pleased, so emotionally entangled.

I really, really wish this book was longer - not because the plot needs it - but just because I want MORE of these two characters. I laughed so hard there were tears running down my face through a lot of it and then at the end, I cried for real. It's a lovely bonus that you also get more of Will and Shannon, because those two are only getting better. I expect my "my-read" count for this series will be high.
