Publisher's summary

Set on a charming North Carolina island, the latest novel in national bestselling author Rochelle Alers' unforgettable, heartfelt Book Club series tells of one woman whose past comes calling—even as a new beginning beckons. Perfect for fans of warm, sexy, community-oriented fiction featuring diverse, multicultural characters in the vein of Tracey Livesay, Sherryl Woods and Brenda Jackson.

Cherie Renee Thompson is finally ready to dive into change. After two summers vacationing on Coates Island, she's now a permanent resident, studying to be a teacher, and has formed invaluable friendships with two remarkable women, Kayana and Leah. Their summer book club, which meets weekly at the Seaside Café, has taught Cherie to seize the day. And as the ex-mistress of a powerful politician consistently unable to commit, Cherie is determined not to waste any more time—or try romance again...

When Cherie meets new sheriff and ex-army veteran Reese Matthews, there's an immediate, undeniable spark between them. For his part, Reese has survived ongoing loss and believes that Cherie is as open and uncomplicated as she appears—until her former flame returns. Free of his responsibilities, he's offering Cherie the luxurious life he always promised...

Now, in a summer of glowing potential, tranquil days, and book club meetings filled with insight and caring, Cherie must weigh past dreams against new chances, search her heart for what's real—and what will fulfill her most.

Not this time

I am a fan of Rochelle Alers. I love series reading, but the last two books were not such an exciting read. Too much time was spent on information from the previous books. I missed the voice of Shari Peele.

I enjoyed this book! It is the best of this series

The last one in this series the main character was disappointing. Leah did not resonate with me at all. Cherie was anything but that! So glad I finally got to learn her story. It was worth the wait.

The Book Club Series! "All That"

Loved the entire book series. However. the voice of the narrator of this book was hard to follow..

Sisterhood Book Club in Session

I loved the realness and powerful ways women support each other. Love these Men!

Good story/Good series

Good narration and nice story. Love a happy ending. It was good to see that stuff happens in people’s lives, and it can all work out in the end. I have found a new author that I will be searching for more from!

Absolutely horrible narration

The only reason I stuck with this is because I’m invested in the characters. But it was pure torture listening to this narrator’s unnecessary singsong voice. It’s almost as thought she’s used to reading to children. (The narrator in the first two books of this series is a different performer, but equally terrible).

Great Storyline

Great storyline, very interesting characters would have loved to heat more of the back storyline.
The narrator was AWFUL made it hard to listen to, sounded like an old lady w/food in her mouth. Please Do Not use Patricia Floyd in future books, she takes away from storyline. Look forward to the next book in this series.

Good story but 🙄

Ive never liked Cherie from the 1st book and still don't. All she does is make excuses for her horrible attitude. Good book though 👌

Blasé and a snooze fest

I support Black authors, but most of these books are the same…God, light skin, “good hair”, green eyes and sex. I find it to be very shallow and stereotypical. Please, if you are going to speak about the Marine Corps, do some research and be sure to use the correct terminology. The author failed to do this. This story dragged on for too long. The main character was self absorbed and annoying.
