Lola Turner's wake up call came in the form of saving her politician father one too many times. Now she's determined to be 'New Lola' -- the version of herself that has always been hiding beneath duty, guilt, promises, and secrets since her mother passed away when she was 15. But the problem with a wake up call is you're the only one to get it. So even though she's moving on, starting her own bakery on the Ocean View boardwalk, the mess that her father always seems to get himself into still is finding its way to her. Ben Coleman left his hometown and the family business that should have been his to pursue his true passion: art and tattooing. Coleman Ink has become his world, and he's tailored the business to fit his life the way he wants it, rather than the life that was originally laid out for him. Until early one morning he's woken up by what he thinks is an intruder only to find it's just his new neighbor. His new neighbor, who has no regard for her own safety, wakes up way too early, and seems to have made it her job to tempt him. But what happens when the grumpy neighbor decides that it's his job to keep her safe, even if she drives him insane? Will Lola open up and share her burden with someone else? Will she be able to keep her family's secrets without getting hurt?

“Who did this to you?”

We LOVE a sexy protective tattooed man. Ben is my fav ocean view boyfriend.

His bedroom talk. The way he cares for Lola. Their arguments and back and forth.... Always had me laughing.

This was such an enjoyable and exciting read.
