Story
Best-selling author Kurt Remington lives to write. He spends 12 hours a day in front of his computer, rarely leaving the seclusion of his beach-front property, where he's come to finish his latest thriller - that is, until free-spirited Leanna Bray nearly drowns in the ocean trying to save her dog. Kurt's best-laid plans are shot to hell when he comes to their rescue. Kurt's as irritated as he is intrigued by the sexy, hot mess of a woman who lives life on a whim, forgets everything, and doesn't even know the definition of the word organized.

When he's finally released, the life he knew is turned upside down by his mother's overdose, and Truman steps in to raise the children she's left behind.

Brooklyn Manning thought her life was perfect in every way, until it crumbled down around her and turned into a dumpster fire. With her pride wounded and her tail tucked between her legs, she leaves New York and goes back to her tiny hometown of White Timber, Montana. No more 24-hour taco trucks, no more shopping at the best designer stores within walking distance, no more giving taxi drivers the finger when they angrily honk at her. She didn’t think it could get any worse. But then Clint Hastings walked into the room and insulted her.

I’d never forgotten him - a man I’d yet to meet. Griffin Quinn was my childhood pen pal, the British boy who couldn’t have been more different from me. Over the years, through hundreds of letters, we became best friends, sharing our deepest, darkest secrets and forming a connection I never thought could break. Until one day, it did. Then, out of the blue, a new letter arrived. A scathing one - one with eight years of pent-up anger. I had no choice but to finally come clean as to why I stopped writing. Griffin forgave me, and we were able to rekindle our childhood connection.

She’s even more beautiful than I remember and has the most adorable kid I’ve ever seen. Years have passed, but my feelings are the same, and this time I refuse to let her go. They say you can't bury the past, and they're right.

This isn’t a story about a love triangle. There is no triangle involved. This isn’t a story about an accidental pregnancy. Although having a baby with her...I would. This isn’t a story about lies and deception, even though at times I’ve lied to myself. No, this is my story. A story about sacrifice. A story about a man who fell in love with the wrong girl. A story I wish I never had to tell. I learned a long damn time ago, the only way to achieve my dreams was to avoid distractions - at any cost.

Publisher's Summary
Sweet with Heat: Seaside Summers features a group of fun, flirty, and emotional friends who gather each summer at their Cape Cod cottages. They're sassy, flawed, and so easy to relate to, you'll be begging to enter their circle of friends!
Secrets at Seaside by Addison Cole is the sweet edition of New York Times best-selling author Melissa Foster's steamy romance novel, Seaside Secrets. The stories and characters remain the same and convey all of the passion you expect between two people in love, without any explicit scenes or harsh language.
In Secrets at Seaside....
Tony Black is the hottest surfer on the planet. He travels the world throughout the year and spends his summers on Cape Cod with his friends, at the Seaside cottages in Wellfleet, Massachusetts. He's got his choice of women, but Amy Maples is the one he wants. Fourteen years ago, she was his for an entire summer, until a devastating accident changed everything, and what they had seemed like it had never existed - at least for her.
Amy Maples is as consistent as the day is long. She's spent summers on Cape Cod forever, she always does the right thing, and she's spent years trying to reclaim the heart of Tony Black, the only man she's ever loved. She's back for a summer of fun with her friends at Seaside, only this year she's been offered the opportunity of a lifetime thousands of miles away, and she's decided to try one last time to reconnect with Tony. But having a relationship with Tony means dealing with her past - and dealing with her past may knock her to her knees.

Secrets at Seaside - Another Fantastic Audio Book!
Audio book review - Secrets at Seaside by Addison Cole - Secrets at Seaside was another GREAT addition to the Sweet with Heat Books by Addison Cole. It tells us the love story of Tony and Amy. Amy has been in love with Tony for what seems like forever, but has never been able to win his attention. Come to find out, there is more to their long time friendship than any of us were even aware of! Their history is one that will tug at your heart strings, and have you rooting them on the entire time you're reading.
Addison Cole is a fantastic author. She makes the characters people that you can relate to in some way. Melissa Moran is also just an all around fantastic narrator. She does each character justice and gives them depth and personality throughout the book.
Tony and Amy both have their secrets (like we all do) and the story tells of their struggles with their demons individually, and finally trying to decide if it is worth it to face them head on, together. A lot of us are afraid to tell others about things we have been through, and we aren't willing to put our pride aside to ask for help. This story displays that type of situation perfectly, from start to finish.
I won't give you an entire description of the book, you can get those above or in other reviews. ;) Addison Cole is definitely an author whose books I don't need to read the description of, I am now on auto-buy. Hope you enjoy this book as well!

Tony and Amy
Tony and Amy – my favorite in the Seaside series. Hearing the story in a different voice than the one in my head made it even better. Melissa Moran does a wonderful job voicing the characters. Having listened to the prior books in the series, I enjoyed the consistency with growth. My review of the book follows:
Emotional Impact!
Amy Maples has secretly loved Tony Black since she was six years old. Their families, along with several others, spent summers in a cottage neighborhood at Seaside, where the sun and surf lead to lifelong friendships and more. Along the way, Amy and Tony found each other, but life-changing secrets tore them apart. Skip ahead fourteen years, and the group is back together for a wedding. Amy and Tony still have amazing chemistry and their friends don’t understand why these two aren’t together. As the story unfolds, we learn the strengths and vulnerabilities of both Amy and Tony, and discover the amazing endurance of their connection, along with their secrets!
Addison Cole has made me laugh, cry, and care about characters in a book. Secrets at Seaside is a wonderful journey! Emotional and awesome – it’s my favorite in this series.

Finally!!!
I have been waiting on Amy's story since the first book. She is so sweet and innocent but i knew there had to be more to her story when it came to Tony. With the way Tony is always there for her, i knew he loved her but i had no idea of the heart break. This book was fantastic and will break you heart a little. It made me love Tony and Amy all the more.

Love!
*UPDATED*
Another winner for Ms. Cole and Mr. Moran. I not only loved the story (read review below), but I also love the different ‘feel’ the narrator gives the stories. It’s not simply the ‘same’ voice, she gives it a little extra something that really adds to the words Ms. Cole gave us, and makes it a unique story.
I really recommend this one, for us audio lovers. <3
*Thank you to the author for providing a copy for which I’m giving my honest opinion*
*************************************************
This was a lovely read.
Much like the rest of the series so far, this book has the perfect blend of romance, some drama, friendship and personal growth for these characters.
This time we learn more about Tony and Amy. I loved these two, they seemed so different (him super cool, and her more put together); but they ended up being perfect for each other. I love how they bring the best from the other: both the serious and the playful parts.
It was also fun to watch them dance around each other for years, lol. Oh boy, they never stood a chance. ;-)
This was a great read, with two endearing characters. I can’t wait to keep reading this series.
*Thank you to the author for providing an ARC in exchange of my honest opinion*

Secrets at Seaside
Amy Maples has loved Tony Black since they were kids. She is tired of waiting for him to see her and make a move. This summer, she's decided, is the final straw. She has a new potential job offer in Australia so if Tony won't open his eyes to what's in front of him, Amy is gone. But this declaration opens a lot of secrets from the past. Secrets that Amy hasn't even shared with her closest girlfriends Bella, Jenna, and Leanna. If Tony and her have any chance of starting something, they'll have to face what's between them in the past first.
I can't believe we've finally reached this point in the series. The point I've been waiting for since the beginning!
As per usual, Melissa Moran does a spectacular job narrating this series and these characters. I love the way she's perfected the sound of each character's voice. While I often feel like there's not enough variation in the male voices, I've always appreciated that she's stayed true to the main four: Amy, Jenna, Bella, and Leanna.
I honestly wasn't prepared for all the depth of history between Tony and Amy, but Addison Cole certainly knows how to make the heart-wrenching fit with the heart-melting aspects of their story. I started to suspect within the last couple of books that Amy's feelings for Tony went further than just some unrequited long-held crush and I was certainly right. However, I was blown away by all the revelations as many of them were certainly unexpected.
I love a good friends-to-lovers romance and Amy and Tony certainly fit that description, but their story goes beyond a simply being two friends who fall for each other. I loved digging deeper into the past at Seaside. Those summers when our familiar characters were growing up play a big part in Tony and Amy's story. Fittingly, the story focuses a lot on the past in order to move forward to the future. Not only for Tony and Amy, but the future of the series itself as the end of Secrets has now given readers all the initial main characters their own Happily Ever Afters at this point. It really felt like the closing of a chapter.
I'm really interested in seeing how things continue on from here as there have been some secondary characters added since the beginning. But mostly I'm just extremely satisfied with the exceptional story Addison Cole gave Amy and Tony. My most anticipated was definitely not a disappointment.

Mrs Amy Black??
Tony Black and Amy Maples have grown up spending their summers together at the Cape but once they hit adulthood, they each took their own path to begin their careers. Amy became a successful businesswoman and Tony, a world-renowned surfer and motivational speaker. The Seaside gang sees the chemistry between the two of them on full display each summer and how Tony takes care of Amy, in all the small ways but the two of them have never acted on their chemistry.
Except, Tony and Amy have a big secret that neither have shared with anyone. One that could change their friendships with the rest of the Seaside gang forever but could releasing the secret allow Tony and Amy to finally have the relationship they deserve? In addition to the secret holding them back could a job opportunity threaten a romantic relationship between them as well?
I found listening to Ms. Moran to be a very enjoyable experience and I was able to immerse myself in the lives of the Seaside gang.
The end of the novel may be my very favorite moment for the Seaside Gang thus far. You will not be disappointed in this latest installment of the Seaside gang from Ms. Cole.

Love this couple!!!
his audio book was a wonderful listen to book. Melissa Moran's reading of this book is great! You always know who is speaking, you also know when a character is thinking vs speaking. Through Melissa's reading, you experience the emotional roller coaster with Tony and Amy.
Tony and Amy have a past, a past that is very painful and one that they have tried to forget for the last 14 years. But Tony and Amy are still in love with each other and must decide whether or not they should take a 2nd chance on their love. Whether you are reading or listening to this book, do so with a box of tissue.

Another winner...
Secrets at Seaside is the fifth book in the Sweet with Heat: Seaside Summers series. A group of friends meet at their Cape Cod cottages. They both want to reconnect, but Tony and Amy share a past that just might be too much to overcome. I really enjoyed this story and narrator. This author never fails to keep me reading longer than intended. I definitely recommend this book.

Definatly better a second time
Tony and Amy had a secret relationship with each other and when a even that rocked their world happens they split. Its been a while since then and they've had growing up to do and now they are trying to figure out how they feel about each other. Amy is feeling like shes been friend zone and honestly can't stand it any more. Now shes being offered a chance to work in Australia to further her career and is seriously considering it she doesn't know if this thing she has with Tony can continue. There is so much push and pull between the two and they've got things to work out before she ends up leaving.
I enjoyed this book so much I decided to do another reread as an audio book and I have to say it was even better a second time. Melissa Moran breathes so much life into these characters and makes it easy for the readers to just love the book and characters even more.
I loved how unique these characters were and how the past affected the people they were currently in the book. No matter how things went, no matter how hard both Amy tried to ignore the past things really couldn't go forward until she dealt with her issues. As much as I loved the push and pull it drove me nuts! I couldn't help but loved these characters and wanted them to stop this ridiculousness and finally be together. I loved seeing how both were able to support each others in different ways. I also loved the sense of close tied friendships that were going on and seeing the previous characters make themselves known and help support Amy when things were getting tough, being her rock and support and it was such a sweet thing to see. Overall great book I really loved it.

A great sweet read
A wonderfully sweet book of secrets, heartbreak and second chances. Amy and Tony have history from when they were teenagers which ended so quick. Can they get their second chance at love whilst trying to be brave at telling their friends about their past. A great book to read in the seaside secrets series. I read this book as an advanced reader copy

Heartbreaking
This story is just so beautiful and emotional.
We've watched Amy dance around her feeling for Tony over many of the Seaside books. Little did we know there was such a story there. It is such a sweet, beautiful, yet heartbreaking story going back to their teens. I cannot write a summary of the story, without giving too much away. Needless to say this is a wonderful read / listen, touching on some tough subjects, but well worth the read. It has you rooting for them to find each other and realise that their love is real.

When best friends fall in love
This is my favourite of the Sweet with Heat series. Amy has had a crush on Tony forever. He has also been hiding his feelings for her. They have secrets that they have kept from their friends and have never spoken to each other about it. They seem to avoid each other over the summers spent at Seaside. When they decide to take the next step its time to put the past behind. While there is still the comedy moments from the other Seaside Ladies its the emotional side of the story that had me hooked. With an audible book you can get inside the story loved it

Best-selling author Kurt Remington lives to write. He spends 12 hours a day in front of his computer, rarely leaving the seclusion of his beach-front property, where he's come to finish his latest thriller - that is, until free-spirited Leanna Bray nearly drowns in the ocean trying to save her dog. Kurt's best-laid plans are shot to hell when he comes to their rescue. Kurt's as irritated as he is intrigued by the sexy, hot mess of a woman who lives life on a whim, forgets everything, and doesn't even know the definition of the word organized.

Reid Jackson - I’m a simple guy. There are only two things I love: my family and playing professional football. I may not understand why people get married, but I’d go anywhere for my brother, even his friend Camille’s wedding. Once I’m there, I realize our Bronx upbringing has left me unprepared for the world of old Southern money. Over 24 hours, I see scandal, threats, and lies. It’s a life I don’t relate to, a place I never want to belong. Even so, when the minister asks if anyone objects, I shock not only myself but also the beautiful bride when I stand up.

Story
On the northeast side of town, there is a house. The house was once magical, filled with love and joy and plans for the future. Inside its walls are many things that belong to me - my books, the china from my mother on my wedding day, the beautiful cage once home to two birds, now empty, just like me. And a man. A man who also belongs to me. A man I no longer wish to keep. A man who, no doubt, has not slept, though the sun is rising. Because the house where he waits is where I laid my head to rest every night for eight years. Until last night.

Kennedy Sinclair never dreamed she'd own a pie shop and an orchard in a small town like Destiny Bay. But nestled between the mountains and the Pacific Ocean, it's the perfect place to cross something off her "Life's short so eat the icing first" list and start her life over from scratch. Her shop, Sweetie Pies, is famous for its hot, flaky apple turnovers and sinfully delicious deep dish pie. For Kennedy though, nothing is more enticing than the tall, strapping slice of temptation who keeps coming back for more.

It's crazy how fast the buzz comes back after you've been sober for so long. Whiskey stood there, on my doorstep, just like he had one year before. Except this time, there was no rain, no anger, no wedding invitation - it was just us. >It was just him - the old friend, the easy smile, the twisted solace wrapped in a glittering bottle. It was just me - the alcoholic, pretending like I didn't want to taste him, realizing too quickly that months of being clean didn't make me crave him any less.
