Review- Sun, Sea and Sangria by Victoria Cooke



4 Summery Stars 

About 

Escape to the palm-fringed beaches of the Canary Islands and wash your worries away.
Kat swore off dating many years ago, after her marriage ended in a catastrophic mess. Having moved to the Canary Islands for a fresh start, she has never had much time for romance, channelling all her energy into managing all-male dance troupe – the Heavenly Hunks.

With golden beaches, sparkling blue water and relaxing after work with a glass of sangria – or three – for Kat, it’s summer all year round. But despite life being postcard perfect, Kat can’t help but wonder if she is missing out on the most important thing of all… love.

The dancers are all well-known for their flirtatious antics and aren’t looking for anything serious… except Jay. Sitting by the pool, watching the sun reflecting in the water, Kat feels like she can tell him anything.

Handsome, caring and a good listener, he ignites a fire in Kat’s heart that scares her witless. But her relationship with Jay should stay strictly professional… right? There is absolutely no way that she can be his boss and his date.

As the temperature rises, will Kat be able to take the plunge, let go of her past and find romance in paradise?

My Review 


This was my first read from Victoria Cooks and I really enjoyed it.

I was pretty much hooked from the very beginning of the story  about Kat and her 'Heavenly Hunks' group who work around the canary islands. This was the perfect mix for a summer read and  it has plenty of laughs but also had some emotion at times too. I loved Jay's character as soon as he was introduced. It's a very quick paced read with plenty of drama to keep you hooked throughout and some moments where I was hoping things would change for Kat. I loved that I also kept trying to picture the locations from my own visits to the canary islands too.

Overall this was a great beach, garden or summer's read which I would highly recommend. I'll also be checking out Victoria's other books too. 

PS I'll also be trying the sangria recipe at the start of the book

Thank you HQ stories and Netgalley for the ARC in exchange for this review
