Publisher Description
He’d rather ride the waves than the tide of romance.
Isaac Larson is the picture of surfing perfection, killer smile included. But ever since his long-time girlfriend left their small town for the summer—and never came back—it has been harder to find things to smile about. It isn’t until she turns up on the beach two years later, ready to pick back up where they had left off, that he realizes he’s finally ready to move on.
Leanne Warner had only intended to spend the summer in LA. A screen-writing apprenticeship with a Hollywood bigwig had been too good an opportunity to pass up. Her boyfriend, Isaac, would still be around when she got back. Except, leaving LA hadn’t been as easy as leaving Starlight Ridge. When she finally breaks free of its chains and returns to her hometown, Isaac is still there, as she knew he would be. But he isn’t the same person as when she’d left. And neither is she.
Will some small-town intervention and a lot of forgiveness be enough for Isaac and Leanne to figure out they were never meant to be apart?
Resisting Love is the second book in the Starlight Ridge romance series. If you can’t get enough of small coastal towns, sweet kisses, and second chances at love, you’ll want to read this sigh-inducing love story.
Pick up Resisting Love and let Isaac and Leanne surf their way into your heart today!
Customer Reviews
A story about second chances
This story is about second chances in love and in life.
Though it definitely is a stand alone, if you read and/or listened to book one in the series, you meet Isaac Larson. The local life guard and surfer enthusiast.
Isaac lives a very simple life and still misses the girl that left him and the town to pursue her dreams in LA. Instead of being gone for the summer she left and never came back .
A couple of years later, Leanne Warner realizes that LA is not what she hope it would be, and returns home .
Though the town is ready to have a wedding, these two realize that the past is interfering with their present and likely their future. But as the friendship rekindles, so do the feelings.
Will these two find their HEA or will LA come back to sweep Leanne off her feet and away from Starlight Ridge and Isaac?
This was a sweet story about a couple rediscovering each other and themselves . As well as how it feels living in a small town.
Great contemporary romance
This is the second book in the Starlight Ridge series. It's a clean love story about second chances. In this fun to read story, we get reacquainted with some of the characters from the first book, but you can completely read and enjoy this book without having read the first book.
In the first book, I thought that Isaac was a bit unusual. In this book, I found out that his longtime love had left for a 3 month internship in LA, but it's been over two years. Not only has she not returned, she has cut off communication with him. He is heartbroken and unwilling to have a relationship with any other woman.
When Leanne decides to go home, she doesn't tell anyone. The townspeople are ready to see a wedding, but Isaac really doesn't want to start up their relationship again. He also has a secret that he hasn't shared with anyone.
The story is well told. The characters are wonderful. I really enjoyed reading this story as well as the first one. I highly recommend it to lovers of contemporary, realistic love stories.
Resisting Love
I stumbled onto this series during the Pandemic and am so glad I did! The characters are relatable and their stories woven through each book so well I couldn’t stop reading until I had finished them all! Resisting Love is a book about your one “true love” and second chances. A page turner that you won’t want to put down. Kat’s books are light hearted and an easy read. I’m anxiously awaiting her next book!
