I received an advanced copy of this book from the publisher via Netgalley in exchange for an honest review. The expected publication date is May 24th, 2016.

This story is the classic story of two people who are instantly attracted to each other and seem to butt heads every time they meet. For those who enjoy the anticipation of when they will finally succumb to their attraction, this will be a book you will enjoy.

While this story was

My first book by J.M. Bronston, I loved it!

Summer on the Cape is the journey of Allie and Zach. Allie is an upcoming artist and Zach is a broodingly handsome caretaker, or so she thinks. But Zach isn't a caretaker and having a clash with Adam Allie's agent, Zach starts off with Allie on wrong footing. Every time he tries to make up for it, something else happens and again they're back to square one!

They keep antagonizing each other, though they're not able to fight the attraction they have for

Thanks to the publisher and NetGalley for a copy of this book!

Allie is an artist, who's career has taken off. Even with a show coming up, she's is talked into going and spending the summer on Cape Cod. Hmmm, was that a good idea? She's going there to work, of course. She falls in love with the place, of course! What's not to love about being on the beach!? The bonus is the hot caretaker...Zach.

Zach is jack of all trades and is sexy as all get out! Allie, of course, thinks he's smoking hot..but,

I accidentally picked this book up from the library. Accident coz I have read this book before and decided to read it again now.
I love the setting of this book. In fact I love all the books which have a similar setting! A romance set on Cape cod!
This story is about Allie a successful artist and Zach a billionaire now leading a life of a recluse on Cape cod. How they both come together is what the plot is all about! Loved it!

Summer on the Cape by J.M. Bronston
Loved the idea of the storyline-working on the cape for the summer. Am familiar with the locale and as it's just snowing here it reminds me of warmer, sunnier days to come.
Allie Randall, an artist learns from her agent Adam more of the details of her summer that he's planned for her. She is to live on the cape and do seascapes for a client of his a big land developing project. She will have chances to sneak back to NYC for gallery shows, other commitments.

I received this ARC book through Netgalley and publisher for my honest review. Thank you!

This was the first work I read from J.M. bronston. Oh goodness I really wanted to enjoy this book, but I just don't like the style of writing that this book had. To me is just goes on and on about things that were unnecessary to get to the point, and it made the story drag so much; I found myself having to skip over parts, because it was just too wordy for me.
In my opinion this story could have been told in

Review Posted at HarlequinJunkie.com

Allie Randall lives and breathes art, and with an important show coming up, it doesn’t seem possible to leave town. But with her agent convincing her to head to Cape Cod, she’s decided leaving town mightn’t be so bad. The gorgeous location would be perfect to help create the seascape paintings an important client has asked for, except there’s one tiny problem, Zach Eliot. The caretaker of the property where she’s staying is a distraction she doesn’t need, yet

I was given a chance by net galley to do a review on this book for an honest review so here goes..

This story is about Allie and up and coming artist who is being shipped off to the Cape for the summer to paint the scenery for a project that her agent is working on. Zach is a mystery to Allie because at first she thinks he is just the handyman who is just very helpful. But like most romance stories their is more to the story. I do not want to give to many details that may ruin it for you but this

Very enjoyable read! The characters of Allie and Zach were both passionate and determined. There is no wonder they clash at every point. Or it may be that they are attracted to each other but are both fighting it with all they have. Allie is suppose to be getting work done but it's impossible when all she can think about is Zach. There's a lot more to him then he let's on though, can she get past his barriers? Does she want to?? These two have great chemistry can they let each other in? Definite ...more
