The question today is Which fictional character (or group of characters) would you like to spend a day at the beach with? Why would he/she/they make good beach buddies?
I think for beach buddies Derek from Awakening as he would be the one to keep all the meanies at bay and he wouldn't have to talk alot just be intimidating. I would also take the girls from The Saving Graces as who could go anywhere without some good girlfriends to talk and gossip. Those are my answers on the topic.
Who would you choose?

This book tells the story of Callie Grey who's looking for the same thing all women are looking for love, and to settle down to the next phase of her life. To bed her 1st kiss doesn't feel that way. Mark her boss at her job has decided to plan a beautiful night for Callie only to tell her they are over. Through out this book we watch as Callie gets walked all over by Mark and his new fiance Muriel. Callie decides at first that the best way to get past this would be to make him jealous but ultimately she doesn't do that she ends up getting hooked with the town vet. Meanwhile her father Tobias who cheated and dumped her mother many years ago when she was pregnant with Callie's brother has decided he wants Callie's help to woo her back. Callie's mom wants him to tell his one nighters all about why he was separated. Which brought three different women, one a widow, one blind, and one really old. Which brought up issues between the two over why he cheated and left. In the end they were able to reconcile. Also along the way Noah who is a Vermont legend with his boat making was able to found some pleasure in the final days with a local girl, Jody.
This book was cute and I found myself cracking up over Noah's attitude and language he reminds me of what a New Englander can be like old and crotchety. It was a great read and brought a smile to my face.
There wasn't much I didn't like and considering this was a HQN book that is a surprise usually I don't like them as much. But this one I enjoyed. This review was requested by FSB Media for a arc copy of the book.
