ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date April 6, 2021

Taylor Sunshine and Pierce Powers vowed to keep things platonic. They already have the best of each other: loyalty, friendship, and trust. Why ruin the perfect relationship? That kind of forever love isn’t in the picture anyway for a restless, aspiring artist like Taylor. Her sights are set beyond the horizon of Cape May and Sunshine Bridal.

The oceanfront hometown is part of Pierce’s heart—just like Taylor is. And it breaks at the thought of her leaving. As her closest friend since high school, he supports her desires, even if she must follow them away from Cape May. But when their defenses are down, all it takes is one impulsive, vulnerable night to change all the rules.

From old friends to overnight lovers, they make a new pact: explore a summer fling, no strings attached. But as the nights heat up and their connection grows deeper, hard choices must be faced. As summer nears its end, will Taylor and Pierce fulfill their individual dreams? Or are new dreams just beginning to come true?

REVIEW:FOREVER IN CAPE MAY is the third instalment in Jennifer Probst’s contemporary, adult THE SUNSHINE SISTERS erotic, romance series focusing on the Sunshine sisters: Avery, Bella and Taylor. This is artist Taylor Sunshine, and photographer Pierce Powers’ story line. FORVER IN CAPE MAY can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous story lines is revealed where necessary.

Told from dual third person perspectives (Taylor and Pierce) FOREVER IN CAPE MAY follows the best friends to lovers relationship between artist Taylor Sunshine, and photographer Pierce Powers. All of her life Taylor Sunshine wanted to be an artist, travelling the world, getting out of Cape May, experience life on the move but her best friend Pierce Powers had always felt at home in their childhood town, thus leaving the friends at odds when the time came to move on. Weeks before Taylor was set to move to Paris, her relationship with Pierce turned into something more but Taylor had no plans with Pierce beyond their ‘friends with benefits’ affair. As Taylor furthered her career in Europe, Pierce made inroads with his own future, a future with which he was hoping Taylor would become a part. What ensues is the building romance and relationship between Taylor and Pierce, and the fall-out as Taylor refuses to accept anything beyond the present, and pushes our hero, out of her life.

The relationship between Pierce and Taylor is a best friends to lovers that struggles in the face of miscommunication, misunderstand, and the heroine’s need for independence and personal success, something she is hoping to achieve without her best friend by her side. Pierce and Taylor have always loved one another but falling in love was never in the plans. Pierce struggled with his love for the woman who all but pushed him out of her life, and Taylor never knew how much damage she was about to inflict on the man with whom she would fall in love. The $ex scenes are intimate and passionate without the use of over the top, sexually graphic language and text.

We are reintroduced to Gabe and Bella, and Bella’s daughter Zoe (Temptation on Ocean Drive 2) ; Avery and Carter (Love on Beach Lane #1); and newcomer Samantha, and Parisian art promoter Luis.

FOREVER IN CAPE MAY is a story of family, friendships, and misunderstanding; independence, acceptance, forgiveness and love. The premise is captivating yet heart breaking; the romance is seductive and emotional; the characters are determined, colorful and stubborn. I did struggle with the heroine’s attitude towards our story line hero, never once taking into consideration how he might have felt or potential for everything and more.
