Madeline, Avery and Nicole are back. The ladies have been recruited to star in a reality television show called Do-Over. The show is based around house remodeling. This is just the opportunity that Nicole needed. Especially after her brother, Malcolm's ponzi scheme. Nicole needs a Do-Over. The reality show is a nice way for the three women to spend the summer together. If only the cameras could but out of their private lives.

I have read several books by Wendy Wax now. I have liked them enough to read more books by this author. Ocean Beach is the follow up novel to 10 Beach Road. It is in 10 Beach Road that readers are introduced to Madeline, Avery, and Nicole. I fell in love with these ladies and was excited to reconnect with them again in Ocean Beach. For some reason this time, I just was not feeling this book as much as I had hoped. While, I like Madeline, Avery and Nicole, the drama that they had was just too much for me. This book read too chick it for me. Which is not a bad thing as every once in a while, I need this type of book. It just goes to show though that Wendy knows how to write and give her characters emotions. Because if I did not care about the women, I would have just gone through the motions of reading this book. The one thing that I do like about the ladies is that they pull together in any situation and have each other's backs. They are best friends. The kind of friends you want. This book is a nice follow up to 10 Beach Road.
