Just Beachy

De: Wendy Wax

Narrado por: Amy Rubinate

A former actress in need of a reset reunites with her grandmother, her first crush, and the ladies of Ten Beach Road in this escapist novel from USA Today bestselling author Wendy Wax.

After losing her long-time acting gig on the hit show Murder 101, Sydney Ryan decides she needs a break from Hollywood politics. She heads to Treasure Island, Florida where her grandmother has been visiting and now refuses to leave. Sydney’s plan to lie low for a bit quickly goes awry though, as she is swept up in her grandmother’s now flourishing social life—Grand not only bought a new house in Casas de Flores, she’s also helping her neighbor Myra open a bookstore in Pass-a-Grille. But when someone breaks into Grand’s house repeatedly Sydney realizes her grandmother is keeping something from her.

Determined to ferret out the truth and protect her grandmother, Sydney enlists the help of the Ten Beach Road ladies and Luke, a local police officer who was once her high school crush. While Sydney puts her television crime-solving skills to the test, she decides to act on the sizzling chemistry between herself and Luke. And as Sydney spends more sunsets toasting to true friends and new romance, she begins to wonder if the sun is setting on her time in Hollywood and if this town could be the dawn of a new chapter.

Really wanted to love it

Not the usual Wendy Wax novel. Sometimes too silly and expected dialogue. Too much explicit language - not like her other book.

Old Lady review

I would prefer not to have the sex scenes in the book. Did not add anything to the story.

Fun

Fun characters good little mystery a little romance, a bookstore on the beach what more could I ask for. I did the audible version and the narrator is familiar and wonderful

Not my favorite Wendy wax text

The character development was weak, the plot was predictable, and the intimate scenes were overly graphic. Not her best! And after a long wait a disaappointment.

Not Her Best

I like the West Coast Florida world and books the author has created and will continue to read them. But this one had some aspects that felt so unrealistic that I laughed out loud once or twice at the ridiculous unfolding of events.
