Hatteras Girl, by Alice J. Wisler

Jackie Donavan has two things she’s looking for: a strong, wonderful man to marry, and a bed and breakfast she’s planned on owning since childhood. Her well-meaning family has tried to help her with this first ambition, setting her up for numerous blind dates, none of which prove successful. For the time being, she works for a magazine near her home, helping to pay for the old Bailey Place, the bed and breakfast she’s been saving up for. On a mission to buy the Bailey Place, she meets Davis Erickson, the handsome and available owner of the Bailey Place. Have her dreams been fulfilled?

Alice J. Wisler did a great job on this novel. Jackie is a likeable and relatable person, and Buck was amazing. The book is set in a beach town (in South Carolina, possibly? My geography is terrible.) and the description was lovely. My only problem with this book happened to be Jackie: I was upset as soon as Davis walked into the picture. They moved way too fast and that wasn’t cool. It was slightly predictable, but that’s expected of chick lit, right? The book was sweet and the ending satisfying.

Note: I received this book free of charge from Bethany House Publishers. I was not required to write a favorable review, only an honest one.
