Had to Read to Finish the Series -- but Doesn't Stand Out
I am almost pathologically unable to leave a series unfinished. If I hate the first book, I can walk away, but once I've read two or more, I feel compelled to close out the series even when I'm just not that in to it. That's why I read Sarah Morgan's Suddenly Last Summer, a summertime contemporary sandwiched between the Christmas-themed Sleigh Bells in the Snow, which I read last December and rated 2.5 stars, and Maybe This Christmas, which I read last week and rated 3.5 stars. In reading Maybe This Christmas, I discovered that I'd missed this book, and had to go back and close out the trilogy even though none of the three books really stood out from the crowd.Suddenly Last Summer is the story of Sean O'Neil, an orthopedic surgeon whose love of career leaves no time for relationships, and Elise Somebody, the chef at the O'Neil family resort. Elise is also a workaholic, but her resistance to relationships has more to do with her abusive ex-husband than with her work schedule. Sean and Elise have steamy chemistry, but neither wants anything more than sex. When each starts to develop Feelings, they both get uncomfortable and things get messy.I'm not a fan of I-don't-want-to-love-you-because-REASONS stories. You know what I mean: where the conflict between the lovers is entirely in the characters' heads and not based on any real obstacle. This is such a story. I didn't love it. I didn't hate it. I finished the series.That is all.

an unexpected treat!
I was really only reading this to get to book three...something in the first book about Elise rubbed me the wrong way. But I was pleasantly surprised in this book...the story of Sean and Elise was quite enjoyable.

5 heartwarming stars!
This is the second book in the O'Neil brothers series; The story of the French chef Élise and the bones fixing doctor :)The whole series is about family and the importance of togetherness, something we all agree to. What I really liked about the book and learnt is the fact that you should always tell people you love how much you love them before it's too late. I was so glad Sean and Elise could make it because when you find your true love never let it go.

Very Good Story
This is the second book in the series. I read the 1st one in paperback. I truly enjoyed this book. The characters were believable. The book was well written. It held my attention from the beginning to the last page. I will begin the 3rd book in the series tomorrow. I have read a few books by SARAH MORGAN. I've enjoyed them all

Awesome! This is definitely one of my new favorite ...
Awesome! This is definitely one of my new favorite authors. This is the second book in the O'Neill series and it's Sean and Elise's story. They both thought that a relationship was the last thing they wanted until what they realized what they really wanted was each other. It's a great story and I absolutely love this group of characters. Can't wait to read the next one! I definite recommend this one!
