Mallory
Baldwin is a model who specializes in not taking herself too seriously. She’s
sarcastic, crass, and loves a good joke. She’s been on the brink of making it
since she was thirteen, and after learning that yet one more major brand has
passed her up for another, good news arrives in the form of a gift. Her pal,
Antonio Rafferty, a hotshot investor, has decided to send her to his elite
private dating island for free. Fun in the sun, along with plenty of sexy
distractions, are exactly what she needs to take her mind off her slumping
career.
Patrick
Conrad has been playing hockey since he could walk. After signing with Detroit,
an injury lands him on the bench after the best season of his career. So when
his college buddy, Antonio, enlists him to help out as a deep sea fishing guide
in a new brand new business venture for a few weeks, Patrick accepts. A little
break in his routine will do him good.
Sparks fly
when Mallory jumps into Patrick's life unexpectedly. Things heat up quickly,
but they both desperately try to keep their identity from the other.
That is,
until the paparazzi arrive.
The beach
never looked so good…

Liza’s Review:
Amanda Abbott is a new-to-me author. When I was contacted about
reviewing Sun Kissed, I really liked
the premise of the story and couldn't wait to start reading it.
While I enjoyed Sun Kissed,
it honestly took me over half way through the book to really connect
with the heroine. I liked Mallory, but she really seemed a little self-absorbed
at the beginning of the book. I honestly like to connect to both the hero and the
heroine much sooner, but kept reading, as I absolutely loved the hero,
Patrick.
I liked Patrick and Mallory as a couple and loved
they really didn't know much about the other when they first met.
With Mallory being a supermodel and Patrick being an NHL hockey player, it was
nice for them to start falling for one another without the outside world
getting in the way. I loved the chemistry between them and felt like they had
an instant attraction. I did love that Mallory was very open about being a
big fan of sex and had no issues with her sexuality, and the sex scenes between
Mallory and Patrick were super hot.
I did end up enjoying Sun
Kissed and even want to read other books in the series. My only issues
were the story started off a little slow and it took me longer than normal
to connect with the heroine. However, once I got into the story and
connected with the heroine, it moved pretty fast.
