Gull Island is a lovely Lowcountry town full of good people who look out for each other. This book and the picturesque setting would make for a perfect Hallmark movie.

The author spent a lot of this book setting the stage for her brand new Gull Island series. This is a sweet romance novel about a young couple who gets a second chance at romance.

🐬 I prefer books that are a little more fast paced
🐬 I would’ve liked more character development and maybe less focus on details of the town. I think it would have helped me connect more with the characters.
🐬 I wanted a bit more romance

If you enjoy a slow steadily paced, sweet romance and second chances are love….you’re going to enjoy this one!

If you're looking for a book to read as you relax on a beach this summer, Serendipity by the Sea is that book! Jennifer Vido does a great job of capturing life in the lowcountry of South Carolina and all it's natural splendor. Having grown up just over the state line in Georgia, I really felt like she did a fantastic job of describing how life is on the sleepy tourist islands. Gull Island is no exception to this! If you've ever wondered what life is like at your favorite destination spot, this book highlights that perfectly.

A second chance at love isn't always in the cards for people, but our two main characters Cate and Knox are given just that. I liked the story that these two share, but wish it had been paced a little faster or that more development had happened during the book. A good wholesome read if you're looking for something light to relax with.

I was given a copy of this book by #TheWildRosePress through #Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.
