Review: Second Chance Summer by Jill Shalvis

Cedar Ridge, Colorado, is famous for crisp mountain air, clear blue skies, and pine-scented breezes. And it's the last place Lily Danville wants to be. But she needs a job, and there's an opening at the hottest resort in her hometown. What has her concerned is the other hot property in Cedar Ridge: Aidan Kincaid-firefighter, rescue worker, and heartbreaker. She never could resist that devastating smile . . .

The Kincaid brothers are as rough and rugged as the Rocky Mountains they call home. Aidan has always done things his own way, by his own rules. And never has he regretted anything more than letting Lily walk out of his life ten years ago. If anyone has ever been in need of rescuing, she has. What she needs more than anything are long hikes, slow dances, and sizzling kisses. But that can only happen if he can get her to give Cedar Ridge-and this bad boy-a second chance . . .

Kerry's 5 out of 5 star review

This is the second book I have read by this author and I certainly wasn't disappointed.
Second chance summer is the first book in the cedar ridge series. Aidan and Lily are meant to be together but heartbreak drives her out of town for 10 years. She's back but has no intentions of staying until she runs into Aidan. From the first moment they set eyes on each other again they both know they can't deny how they feel, no matter how much Lily tries to. This book is full of laughs and love as well as a lot of drama that has you turning the pages so fast I'm surprised I didn't have a paper cut. The background characters are also so lovely I can't wait to hear more about them in the other books. I am diving into book 2 as Hudson was the only one we never really got much information on and I can't wait to see what Jill has in store for him.
