Boys of Summer
Falling for the Rich Boy
A broken down car near a small town called Sterling Beach. A girl down on her luck (again). And the rich boy who drives the brand new Camaro.
Dulce and her mom are no strangers to going a little hungry, sleeping on a friend’s couch, or having to start over. But when their car breaks down in the middle of nowhere, she's pretty sure they've never been this low.
The last thing Dulce expects is for a cute stranger to offer his help. And a place for them to stay.
But she can’t help but wonder: why is Nolan Montgomery so nice? What it in it for him?
All Dulce knows is that she and Nolan come from two very different worlds, and the sooner she and her mom can get back on the road, the better.
But as it turns out, maybe Sterling Beach is more than a place to crash.
And maybe there's more to the rich boy than she thinks.
Will Dulce finally get her own happily ever after? Or will Sterling Beach end up being one more round of never-ending bad luck?

Can this day get any better?! What an amazing tale !
Absolutely love stories that are based in a small town where there is a beach, with nice neighbours, cute boys and surfing to be made! It’s like a heavenly place for all young girls to live in
But while some girls have it easy in these beautiful places, for Dulce, her entirely life has not been made easy.
Dulce and her mum have been through many hardships, sometimes having to sleep on a couch or having to skip dinner some nights. But in the end they always find a solution to get by. And this is when they are on the road to a new place. But as the luck they have, they become stranded in a small town named Sterling Beach.
Things doesn’t seem to be heading their way, but a young guy, a rich looking boy pulls over and helps them out.
Nolan helps them out a lot, giving them a place to stay while their car is getting fixed. And while Dulce is at his town, he shows her around and teaches her how to surf.
Dulce loves every second of it. The more time they spend together, the more Dulce wants to stay in this town. But with the growing situation of money and needing a place of their own, she knows she can’t stay forever.
But is she willing to search for some way to stay with Nolan and live in peace?
If you love swoon worthy kisses and sweet dates, and surfing classes, you’ll love this book! I cannot wait to read more of this series! And each books is a stand-alone in the series!
Highly recommend it!

Okay read.....
https://ladiikeiii.wordpress.com/2019...
*****SPOILERS... JUST NOT THAT MANY***
I had to laugh at this girl in this book about how she said what kind of name is “Nolan” ... I’m like what kind of name is Dulce 🤣 I literally had to look up the pronunciation... & pronounce it like an Italian maybe it was Spanish or French hmm...
But the author mentioned “Hayes” in this book and stated that he was working in the back.... & the last I knew he was in the hospital... I so want to know about his recovery and want a book about him finding a girl... I’m hoping one of the authors end up writing one about him... and even one about Jeremy because I don’t remember reading one about him either.... then I realize he was the guy in the “Saving Haley” book...
Maybe these books are kind of between what happened since Jace was still there in Sterling Beach and not in Ryder Bay... but anyways I liked this book; you could tell that Nolan was one of the friendly rich people... I wasn’t sure about his mom; maybe Nolan and his dad sort of rub off on her because Dulce and her mom ended up staying in the guest house; not only that Nolan dad gave them a car (more so) Marie paid for it since she couldn’t take it for free. & even moved into the Montgomery rental house...
It’s good that there are actually nice people in the world and are down to help those in need. You could also tell that Dulce liked where she was at after she been there so long. Living in a small town can be very peaceful because there’s not much going on and there are also small businesses that you could easily walk to; it’s the same where I live... but only wish it was more businesses and a beach!
I also liked how Nolan came to the diner and helped Maria get the manager job; because he definitely wanted them to stay and Bob didn’t believe the lie that other person told... a lot of time there’s jealousy and people tin to ruin things for people, and that good/hardworking person end up with a bad rep.. but at least Dulce and her mom ended up staying and Dulce end up with actual friends and learning to surf...

Didn't hold my interest or give me that YA romance I was looking for.

Cute, sweet and clean YA. It is a standalone like the other Boys of Summer reads.
I left a little old reading this one and my cynical side came out a little bit with not believing there was a hidden agenda for Nolan helping Dulce and her mum so much. But that aside it was refreshing to read that There wasn't a hidden agenda and no added drama or angst. Dulce was a cool character and so different than those I've read about.

I thoroughly enjoyed Dulce and Nolan's story and getting to know them and their families. From page one, I was rooting for Dulce and her mom to finally catch a break - those ladies are a force to be reckoned with!
So far, this is my favorite story in the series, but I haven't read them all, yet. :)

This admittedly is a fast and furious book. Having said that it was a sweet romance. A coming of age and finding love in an unexpected way. Not running from problems but facing them. The hero was just so so sweet and down to earth enough to recognize what he had right in front of him. Swoon-worthy on all levels.

This was an incredibly cringe book. The plot, especially at the beginning, was sooo unbelievable and unrealistic. The dialogue could be pretty bad at times and the main character constantly repeated herself. Seriously, I get that you come from “two different worlds” but stop talking about it. I think my actual rating is more of a 2.5? I’m not sure, but I don’t really think I recommend this book.

A great book about finding you forever home and relying on people to help you when you are down on your luck. A sweet book about overcoming obstacles to find the place you belong.
