The Love Fix by Jill Shalvis is the eighth book in the Sunrise Cove series. However, this book can easily be read as a stand alone. I have enjoyed Jill Shalvis’ books in the past, so I was eager to pick up this one and I was not disappointed at all! The themes of family and forgiveness while finding love highlight the enemies-to-lovers novel.
Lexi Clark’s life is imploding and she is on the last of her cash and reserves. However, she flies home to follow through with her mother’s request to make amends. Lexi’s step sister Ashley complicates things by being her upbeat self even when Lexi is struggling to make connections with her. On top of that, Heath, the man she has had a crush on for years, is there to help everything go smoothly as the executor of the will. They end up doing a series of road trips to present various people letters from Lexi and Ashley’s mom (stepmom) which allows them to hear more stories about her. Stories that show her in a good light, unlike what Lexi ever saw. To top off the tasks, Lexi is still sparking over Heath and wants to have sex with the gorgeous man while not moving the bars protecting her heart.
Jill Shalvis writes fun to read novels, often adding in situations that highlight the humor in life while writing about hard subjects her characters often have to work through. For me the insect dance made me laugh, but the dog and the toddler in the backyard about killed me laughing. (You will know it when you read it) The Love Fix by Jill Shalvis is a good read that will keep you up too late reading (not that I did that).
The book will be published on June 24th
