We're back in Cape May on the Jersey Coast with the three Sunshine sisters who run their own wedding planner business.

Bella is the 2nd sister to tell us her story.

And it started as a dream story ... Bella married her childhood sweetheart, they had a daughter ... and three months later some drunk driver killed her husband.

Now, five years later, she's a busy single mom working for the family wedding planner business. And she loves it.

Then there's Gabe. He's been working with the sisters for three years now.

And since day one he's been in love with Bella. But she just doesn't see him that way. She thinks he's a ladies man - on a date every other night - soon to leave town for bigger and better things.

But that's so not Gabe. He wants Bella. He wants to be little Zoe's daddy. He wants it all.

He just has to convince Bella that he's worth it.

Let the fun times begin ...

WHAT WILL HAPPEN WITH BELLA & GABE?
WILL THERE BE A HEA??
READ THE BOOK TO FIND OUT ☺

I loved the first book in this series ... so much!

And this second book is just as adorable.

Also kinda sad though. First of all because Bella is a widow. But even more because we feel so bad for poor Gabe! He's so in love with Bella and she doesn't get it! Ugh. I wanted to hit her over the head with my kindle! LOL!

But I just loved reading this.

We're rooting for those two to finally figure things out!

It might take a little while though. ☺

This was a great love story.

It's an amazing series. Perfect location! Great cast!

I can't wait to read Taylor's story!

Also - I want to move to Cape May asap!

And I so want to see this whole thing on Netflix!!!

► TEMPTATION ON OCEAN DRIVE was an adorable & sad & sparky & emotional & wedding-y New Jersey Beach Town love story! I loved it!
Run to your nearest amazon for your own Gabe - this one is mine!

Gabe has been working in Sunshine Bridal for a while, he has his eyes on Bella since day one.
According to small town gossip, he is a player, who dates a lot. How he can make Bella to see him as him?
There is a perfect opportunity, both of them has to work on a wedding, this is his chance.

I loved this story so much. Enjoyed everything about it, the laugh, the sad.

Bella is a widowed single mother working with her sisters as wedding planners. Gabe truly enjoyed his Job as a wedding planner. Even better he is head over heels in love with one of the sisters. Gabe finally got up the nerve to to Bella how he truly felt for her. There was definitely a lot of back and forth emotions between the two of them. Truth be told I found Bella to be a bit immature and very Insecure. I felt bad for Gabe and wanted to reach through the book and shake Bella. I truly enjoyed reading this book and look forward to seeing what Jennifer writes next!!

I am really enjoying this series so far. Bella’s story is definitely not all unicorns and rainbows but that is what makes it so poignant and real. I loved it!!!
Being a widow with a young daughter Zoe, who is totally adorable btw and addicted to pink things, has not been easy on Bella. It means that is where all of her focus has been besides work since her husband passed 5 years earlier. She hasn’t even thought about opening her heart or life again to another man. She can’t possibly take a chance like that. But there is a part of her that really wants to with Gabe.
Gabe works with her and her sisters at Sunshine Bridal but she has never really thought of him as more than a coworker/friend. Until now that is, when they get closer because they are working on a special wedding together just the two of them. Gabe is an amazing man and excels at his job.
Unfortunately the universe is conspiring against them all too often as Gabe has a reputation in Cape May that is making it very difficult for him to break through the walls Bella has built around her heart. But as they become closer can she see him, the real him? Not the him others are making him out to be. The man who loves her and only wants her, despite what other people are whispering in her ear. He is also amazing with Zoe and has no problem being there for her when she needs him. Suffice it to say, Gabe is very swoony and I just don’t know how Bella resists him for so long!
I was rooting for them so hard throughout this story, yelling at Bella for her to see the truth! It was quite a struggle sometimes. But it would not be a romance without a very satisfying to the heart HEA so thank goodness for that! I look forward to Taylor’s book next!

Temptation on Ocean Drive, book two in Jennifer Probst’s series about the sisters who run Sunshine Bridal, is a cleverly written push me pull me story about a pair of wedding planners. Gabe felt the electricity of attraction the very first time he met Bella, but no matter how much he tries to push past the business relationship, she pulls back. Widowed Bella thinks Gabe is a player who will one day leave her family’s business and take away customers... and besides she has a young daughter to raise and protect. Then comes the celebrity wedding the company cannot refuse that will require Bella to work with Gabe in spite of her misgivings. Can Gabe ever get beyond his much gossiped about player image? Can Bella learn to overlook the gossip and trust her own feelings? Ms. Probst’s fans know with a setup like this they are in for a fun filled, flirty, sexy story filled with character insight as the pair try to produce a theme wedding in just two months and then deal with the aftermath. I voluntarily reviewed an advance copy of this book. Most highly recommend.

Bella is a single mother and a young widow who’s kept herself closed off from most people. Besides raising her daughter, she is also a wedding planner at the family’s bridal business, Sunshine Bridal. Gabe was an assistant but become on of their planners and has been crushing on Bella since he met her. Bella has kept Gabe at arms length because of gossip and she’s afraid he’ll get bored and leave. When they are forced to do a big, extravagant wedding together, it starts to heat up between them. Will Bella let the walls down around her heart and be happy?

The resident “playboy” and the hometown girl. Now let me be honest, at times I couldn’t stand either one of them. Bella couldn’t make her mind up or tell Gabe how she was feeling. Gabe has a hard time letting her take it slowly, even after saying he would. A couple of steamy scenes and miscommunication. I am a big fan of Jennifer Probst and would still recommend this book.
