Sweet Adventure

By Tamie Dearen
Sweet Adventure by Tamie Dearen digital book - Fable

Publisher Description

Will Katie jump into the shark-infested waters for a second chance at love?


Katie Carson is afraid of everything. Spiders. Sharks. And especially love… thanks to her ex-fiancé. That's why her immediate attraction to the reckless Gary Lassiter scares her to death. Sure, he looks like Superman and he saved her from a giant arachnid, but he's an adrenaline junkie. 

Gary Lassiter owes his life to his best friend, Steven. But his loyalty is tested when he meets Steven's PA, Katie. Though Steven and Katie are probably a better-suited match, Gary wants Katie for himself. He sees a lot of spunk behind her overtly timid façade, and he's determined to bring it out in the open.

When the three spend a week at Indigo Bay, Katie starts to fall for Gary, even stepping outside her comfort zone. It's all fun and games until her adventure brings her to a moment of life or death. Thrown into the nightmares of her past, she's convinced they can't have a future together. Will Gary get past her defenses?

Note: From USA Today bestselling author Tamie Dearen comes the long-awaited prequel to Her Best Match. Read the story of Steven Gherring's PA, Katie, and how she meets his best friend, Gary, in this Indigo Bay Second Chance Romance. All books in the Indigo Bay series have been written as standalones, so feel free to dive in anywhere!

Sweet Adventure Reviews

3.5
“I don’t understand all the high ratings for this book. I found it quite boring to be honest. Spoilers ahead. The book began all right, but went down hill from there. It was funny to read that Katie was scared of almost everything. But it went too far. Funny in the beginning but irritating in the end. Katie and Gary were no match at all. He was adventurous, she the total opposite. Yes he challenged her, but he was a bit too pushy if you ask me. Now lets talk about these two MC’s who are both commitment phobics. Not sure which one of them both is the biggest, but due to their pasts they both don’t want a serious relationship. Katie is keen on a holiday fling but doesn’t want to date Gary once back in NY. The same for Gary, he just wants something casual with Katie. Just hooking up, he isn’t intending something serious. So how is it possible Gary does a 180 in 2 days and admitting that he loves her and want to marry her. Wait what..? Shocker right?! But Katie does a 180 in 5 seconds, because she tells him off and in the next sentence she accepts his marriage proposal. Okay, wtf?? They get married in 6 months. But wait, that’s not all. The other commitment phobic (yes we have 3 of them in this book) Steven, aka Katie’s boss and Gary’s friend, beats them to it and is already married. What the f... These last 10 pages of the book made no sense at all. I finished the book, but I had to force myself to it. This book wasn’t enjoyable for me. It had potential though, but perhaps this book or author just isn’t for me. Very safe, no OW/OM drama. Also no sex scenes between the MC’s. Not even sex off page, which is quite odd in the romance genre. A couple of mentions about church, so maybe that’s the reason?”
