Super hot n spicy, but a great story for an open mind and heart. What more to say? First one I've made it thru to the end with anticipation. Could do with some spell checks, but it was easy to follow what the writer intended. Crumbs, what else can I write without giving over the whole plot? To make up 80 word minimum? Really? Should be able to add as much or little as we like! But anyway, still enjoyed this story very much!

Huneys!!! I loved every word of this novel. I wasn't sure how it was going to resolve considering but it was gracefully done. The author left all bad/scary anxiousness out and left it open for more books in this world. You'll come away with a sense that a similar situation could be possible irl if you stayed open and it definitely preps you for books 2 3 and 4 if there are books 2 3 and 4...at least you'll start looking for them if not asking for their drop date. Overall an easy affordable read.

This was an amazing story. I loved the dynamics between Kane-Dom-Sarah. I only wish that the author would have shown the guys whooping Michael’s ass for hurting Sarah. I loved that she showed the guys showing their beasts to Sarah. I hope that we can see these characters again in future stories. I loved that we got to see Derrick and hear a couple of his mates over the phone from the previous story. I like reading the author’s stories and seeing characters from the same world and different books. This story was great.

Love this story!! A journey in finding each other as fate dictated. Pure love and romance 💗💒 I liked the multiple mates and how accepting she was of both men, both as partners, lovers and shifters. It seems like the reveal of their animals should have happened earlier though. She accepted that they were not human pretty easily and early in the story. Which seemed strange, given they showed no proof, she just believed them. Other than that. Great love story!

I loved the story could have been longer. More back story of all main characters would have been helpful. Is there going to be a sequel. If so would like to read Sarah having their baby. It would be so cute to experience the dynamic. What will Dom be doing, professional wise. I don't recall Sarah's background other than her writing skill. Does she have siblings or is she all alone. Where are her parents. I loved this book, just needs more details.

Great story with some interesting twists and turns. I love that we get to see characters from other books in it as well. The building of the relationships between the characters is great and leaves you rooting for things to work out for their happily ever afters to come. The scenes were sexy and steamy and nice to read. The author really knows how to draw the reader in and paint the scenes in beautiful detail.Loved it!

Good written novel. Not too long, not too expensive and not a slow read. And very hot too 😍 Also, it had a real story. I could really relate to the characters. Really feel how they felt and how much they loved each other and accepted the situation. I would love to read more of these kinds of books. Not the one that just keep going and going about nothing. I really enjoyed it and binge read it 😁 Great read author 👍🏽💕 I hope to read more of this author

By the Sea by Jane Knight is an emotionally layered romance that blends heartbreak, temptation, and self-discovery against a breezy coastal backdrop. After catching her boyfriend cheating, Sarah escapes for a weekend getaway, where the charismatic Dom offers an alluring distraction. What begins as a temporary escape soon grows more complicated, especially when loyal, quietly intriguing Kane reminds her that love might have been closer than she realized. Knight skillfully builds romantic tension and inner conflict, delivering a heartfelt story about choices, timing, and unexpected second chances.
