This has two stories: "The Heat is On" by Jill Shalvis and Blame It on the Bikini by Natalie Anderson.

I've read a lot of Shalvis's books. I don't love all of them but she is a pretty decent author. "The Heat is On" is a very simple romance that is super sweet with a hint of mystery to make it interesting. Keep in mind that the mystery is a very small part of the story. Most of it is really about Bella and Jacob being together. Towards the end it did drag a little bit but overall a very good read.

I don't think I have read Anderson before. It had an interesting premise: Girl tries on a ridiculous bikini and text it to her best friend only making a mistake and texted it to her best friend's brother. The brother who doesn't know she existed until seeing the text and falling hopelessly in lust. The brother who was her teenage crush. Unfortunately I couldn't finish it mostly because of Brad. He was really cocky but not in an endearing way. He is arrogant in kind of a sleazy way that makes me want to dump a drink on him. Not the story for me.

The Jill Shalvis story is an easy read romance book. She is an awesome writer However, the Natalie Anderson bonus book is a cute story but has many words that are spelled incorrectly. I found myself playing find the bad words....... I will read her next book but hope this is not an issue again.
