REVIEW - Eversea (Butler Cove #1) by Natasha Boyd

The Book
Release Date: 4 June 2013
Goodreads Link

An orphaned, small-town, southern girl, held hostage by responsibility and self-doubt.

A Hollywood A-list mega-star, on the run from his latest scandal and with everything to lose. 

A chance encounter that leads to an unlikely arrangement and epic love affair that will change them both forever. 

When his co-star and real-life girlfriend is caught cheating on him with her new director, A-list hottie, Jack Eversea, finds himself in sleepy Butler Cove, South Carolina. Jack hopes the sultry southern heat in this tiny coastal Lowcountry town will hide him not only from the tabloids and his cheating girlfriend, but his increasingly vapid life and the people who run it. He doesn’t count on meeting Keri Ann Butler. 

Keri Ann has relied on herself so long, dealing with her family’s death and the responsibilities of keeping up her family's historic mansion, that boys and certainly the meager offering of eligible boys in Butler Cove, have never figured into her equation. But fate has other plans. Suddenly face to face with the man who played the movie role of her favorite fictional character, Jack has Keri Ann yearning for everything she has previously avoided ... and Jack must decide whether this funny, sassy girl is worth changing his life for, before his mistakes catch up to him.

My Review  5 STARS
This book ends on a bit of a cliff hanger, so if you don't like them this series may not be for you, but as the series has been out for a while it should pose no problems now.

Keri Ann is from a small costal town and when Hollywood star Jack Eversea turns up out of the blue hiding from his life for a while, she gets sucked into his orbit as he decides that she is the one that he will trust.

An agreement that she will get his groceries for handyman tasks around her house turns into more when the chemistry gets hotter and the attempt to stay away just proves too much for them.

Keri Ann has some good friends and people around her and they are there when she needs them the most, especially after Jack's ex turns up with devastating news.
The book is told from Keri Ann's point of view but at the end we do get a chapter from Jack's side of things.

There is good chemistry between the pair and Keri Ann is quite grown up in the way that she handles things, though Jack is slow to open up, he wants Keri Ann like know one before her.

I can't wait to see how things progress with the second book.
