Rachel´s Random Resources: The Hotel by the Sea by Julie Caplin


I love Portugal for its sense of privacy and calm, and for the warm and friendly people. A romantic novel set in this beautiful country can only promise good things, in addition to some more inspiration for the coming summer holidays.

The Hotel by the Sea by bestselling author Julie Caplin is an invitation to relax, and spend some romantic adventurous hours in the company of Rebecca and the handsome Felipe and his bubbling family. 

Disappointed in love, Rebecca decided to take a temporary job at a family hotel in Algarve. But love is following her, and instead of taking a break from the life of the heart, she is faced with some complicated choices and a very charming acquaintance. 

What I usually love about Caplin´s books is the relatable and realistic characters: they are very much alive with their mistakes and flaws, bad choices and blind love. They reflect the behavior and choices - bad or good - of people one may encounter in the everyday life, although they are always part of well planned stories that will definitely finish within a couple of hours. But as long as we are spending time with those characters, it feels like a movie where love is always in the air.

This is the 13th book from the Romantic Series by Julie Caplin, some of them previously reviewed on my blog.

Rating: 4 stars
