The blurb given by the back of the book is a bit misleading. The book spends a lot of time on the time period leading up to the hurricane. The aftermath is discussed but the looking after pets left behind (as described in the blurb) is a very small part. Otherwise, a generally enjoyable book.

The characters and plot just didn't resonate with me, romance was a little too cheesy...

Quick read but not a Meg Cabot fave.

I enjoyed this book but I feel like there is not much more to say about it.
It is your standard good romance book including:
- a handsome playboy
- small town gossip
- lots of pets
- beautiful scenery (I really want to go to Little Bridge Island now - or at least to any coastal small town)
- a strong and cool female protagonist who though sometimes obnoxiously independent is still very lovable and only annoying on very few occasions
- rich backgrounds but still down to earth people who help the poor
- famous parents
- toxic rich ex-boyfriends
- lots of dogs and other pets (I know I said that already but seriously, it's like the main plot point of the book)
- a hurricane and 'cut of from other people' experience

If this sounds like something you would enjoy, go ahead and read it ;) It was really enjoyable but if you're not into standard tropy romance books you will probably not like this one either.

A new cute little romance series from Meg Cabot! I loved this book even though it was a little unrealistic and there were a few editing errors
