4 ★ – Charming, Sweet and Wonderfully Entertaining

This book is a great addition to the Beach Squad series!  It’s wonderfully entertaining, satisfyingly swoony, and positively heartwarming.

I really enjoyed getting to know Brinley and Dean, but I have to admit, I had a little bit of difficulty getting into the story compared to the first book in the series. Not that the plot wasn’t engaging or fun, it was and the story development was well-paced. I just felt that some of the conversations seemed a bit forced. I thought they were a kind of choppy, disconnected, and just not as smooth or natural as Sweet Dreams. That being said, I still had a fun time reading this book. I loved seeing the beach squad again and catching up with Esa and Ivan and Bailey. While the story dealt with some serious issues, there were plenty of sweet moments, delicious flirting, heartwarming friendships, swoony romances, and awesome twists and turns. The ending was fantastic and amazingly well done. I definitely cried a bit so that made me like this series even more and rounded up my review rating to 4.

Brinley was an easy character to like – she’s socially awkward, athletic, intelligent, determined and adorably shy. Because of her horrible past, Brinley’s also extremely guarded, slow to trust, and afraid of falling in love too fast. Enter the devastatingly handsome lifeguard, Dean, who’s very sweet, really caring, incredibly patient and charmingly persistent. Brinley’s heart never stood a chance! As much as she fought her feelings, Brinley couldn’t help but let her guard down and gradually learn to trust the man who’s willing to wait for her, love her unconditionally and keep her safe no matter what it takes. Dean was definitely the badass hero she needed to help her realize she’s worthy, beautiful and lovable!

Like with Esa and Ivan in the first book, there was an instant attraction between Brinley and Dean that was absolutely delightful! Their chemistry was swoony and adorable, so I enjoyed all their moments together. There was spice, sweetness, and steam! They’re just so great and fit for each other and I completely could not get enough of Dean! He’s the epitome of the perfect book boyfriend and just a really amazing guy. I loved his relationship with his brother and mother and thought they were all just lovely.

Beach B!tch is definitely a fun kickass beach read! It’s sweet, funny, sexy and delightfully  heartwarming. Can’t wait to continue the series with Barefoot Chaos and catch up with the Beach Squad again.
