In the past, I have read books by Nancy Thayer and really enjoyed them. She can write a great beach read. This novel, however, was not one of her best. The storyline was boring, with minimal action and predictable scenes. The characters were whiny and one-dimensional. I don't even know the number of times the main character says "take me to bed". For example, page 243, Carley says "do we have to eat? Can't we just go to bed.". And a few paragraphs later, another character says to her "I want to make you moan.". Do people really talk like this because yuck! And don't even get me started on Maud's immoral, selfish, and whiny character. Do yourself a favor and skip this book. It's not even worth the time on the beach to read it.
