Lovers Heights

 💖💖💖💖💖/5


Lovers Heights by Annie Dyer, book three in the Puffin Bay series, is a fake romance between Finn Holland and Ruby Murray and their entertaining and surprising story. Ruby moved to Puffin Bay in order to distance herself from any rumors about her and her behavior with a student and a former colleague, who has it out for her, at her former college. She is a professor of marine biology and will teach at a nearby college, while monitor the area related to its rock's environment, and get to know her half-brother Thane. Finn, a gin maker and owner of the Refinery, is trying to discourage a former fling, Rosalie, who works for his company; as he’s not looking for a relationship. Ruby bumps into Finn on her first night there, and they seem to have an instant connection; with Finn offering to show Ruby around the Bay. One thing leads to another and when someone from Ruby's past starts to cause trouble for her Finn happily offers to be her fake boyfriend, which quickly leads to fake fiancée, then to fake wife.  The more time they spend together, they fall for each other and secretly start to want to make it real.

 

There are some serious things that happen to the characters in this book, having major impacts on them, this series and the future books.  Getting to know both Gully and Rowan, Finn’s younger brothers, added extra layers to the story. My heart broke for the loss and the pain that everyone had to experience. I loved catching up with all the previous characters, the banter between all the characters, yet at the same time, when things are tough it’s amazing how the entire Bay comes together.

 

Set off the coast of Anglesey, filled with funny moments, small town shenanigans, this fake relationship turned into forever love grabbed me, made it difficult to put down, and stayed with me after the pages were done. Lovers Heights, an isolated beach near Puffin Bay, where Finn and Ruby enter their fake relationship, is also a place the story revisits both in happiness and in tragedy; becoming a part of them.

This was such an amazing read and I highly recommend Lovers Heights to other readers. I’m definitely looking forward to future visits to Puffin Bay and the next book in the series.

 

I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this book.
