Synopsis

Steamy summer nights with a hot older man aren’t the smooth sailing Seb expects.

A mysterious older guy
Seb Williams has one plan for the hot, sultry nights of his summer vacation—to get laid. What isn’t on the agenda? Running his uncle’s fishing business. Seb has no choice but to help his family. So it’s goodbye, Ogunquit’s gay bars and hook-ups.

And it’s hello, Cape Porpoise, a quaint, quiet fishing harbor. A small town that promises to be boring AF until he meets Marcus Gilbert. His summer prospects start to look promising. Silver fox—hell yeah. Hot bod? Check. Slow sultry gaze? Oh yes!

Only one problem. Marcus Gilbert plays hard to get.

A hot distraction
Cape Porpoise is exactly how Marcus remembers it from long-past childhood, and just what he needs. A sabbatical to get his life back on track, and work on his book. Peaceful surroundings. The calm of the ocean.

Perfect—until Marcus’s boat is well and truly rocked by a hot, younger guy.

Marcus can’t ignore the lure of Seb’s lean frame and gorgeous eyes. One night can’t hurt, right?

Except one night leads to another, and another.

It’s just a summer fling—until it isn’t, and the pair are suddenly in uncharted waters.

Because now, Marcus’s past threatens to tear apart their future.

Review

Another great book in this series; I loved it!

I loved this book when I read it back in August and I knew that the only thing that could make me love it more would be to hear John Solo perform the audiobook. John really is one of my favorite audiobook performers and did a fantastic job, once again, with Seb’s Summer.

Seb really did not want to spend his summer working as a lobsterman in the tiny town of Cape Porpoise while his uncle recuperated from an injury. He figured there would be nothing to keep him interested and that his summer would be filled with boring and back-breaking work. Boy was he wrong.

Marcus Gilbert is in Cape Porpoise to get away from his hectic life in New York City. There are hints along the way in the story but it is pretty far into it before we find out what is really going on. There is no trigger warning for the story because it would be a big spoiler.

Both Marcus and Seb have been players with no serious thoughts of having a real relationship but that changes so much over the course of the summer. Yes, they have a lot of hot and sexy time together but they also spend time just being together and enjoying each other’s company.

K.C. Wells really knows how to write a hot story but this was about so much more than what Seb and Marcus get up to between the sheets. It’s about Marcus’s large and welcoming family and also about the secret he’s keeping. We also get to visit with Seb’s found family of friends and their significant others.

I’ve loved all of the books in this series and I’m really looking forward to reading the next one.
