This is my first book by Roxanne St. Claire but it will not
be the last. BAREFOOT IN THE SAND was a fun quick read
filled with lots of sexual tension along with silly and
funny moments. This book made me want to move to Florida
and open a resort with a hot sexy architect!
In BAREFOOT IN THE SAND we meet Lacey Armstrong and her
teenage daughter Ashley. They have just survived a
hurricane that wiped out everything they own including
their house. Lacey's friends arrive in Mimosa Key to lift
her spirits and help in any way they can. That just might
include Clay Walker who Lacey met on the beach and happens
to be an up and coming architect. After initially turning
him down when he suggests building a resort on the
property, her friends help her see the light and convince
her she needs to give him a chance. Here is where the
sexual tension begins!
Lacey is thirty six and Clay is twenty nine. At first she
has a problem with their age difference but of course, Clay
convinces her otherwise. He is going to be working for
her pro bono to help keep her costs down. He is also ready
for a personal relationship and worms his way into her head
as well as her heart. She cant stop thinking about him and
the heat he brings to her entire body!
Enter Ashley's father! He hasn't seen his daughter since
she was a year old. Now when Lacey is considering a fresh
start in her life with Clay, David shows up! Could life
get any more complicated for them all? David has this
crazy idea that after thirteen years he and Lacey can just
pick up where they left off!
Lacey and Clay both have issues to deal with from their
past. Can either one of them get over it and learn to
trust and love again? You will have to read BAREFOOT IN
THE SAND to find out! Believe me when I tell you, you wont
be able to put it down until the very last page.
When a hurricane roars through Lacey Armstrong's
home on the coast of Barefoot Bay, she decides all that
remains in the rubble is opportunity. A new hotel is just
what Mimosa Key needs, and Lacey and her teenage daughter
are due for a fresh start. And nothing, especially not a
hot, younger architect, is going to distract Lacey
from finally making her dreams a reality.
A
second chance is the only thing you have
left.
Love has already cost Clay Walker
everything. And if he's going to have any chance of picking
up the pieces of his life, he needs the job as Lacey
Armstrong's architect. What's not in the plans is falling
for the headstrong beauty. Her vision of the future is more
appealing than anything he could have ever drafted for
himself. Will Clay's designs on Lacey's heart be more than
she can handle, or will she trust him to build something
that will last forever?
