Reviewed: The Boy at the Beach by Katey Lovell






The Boy at the Beach is book two in The Meet Cute series. It will be published by Harper Impulse on November 5, 2015.


Thanks to Katey for sending me a copy of this book to review.



I loved the first book in Katey Lovell’s Meet Cute series and so I couldn’t wait to read the next one – The Boy at the Beach. I liked how, though similarly cute and smile-inducing, this was a whole different type of meet-cute to the first one. Lauren and Toby were meeting for the first time, but they knew each other from online, and it was so sweet! I was wondering if they would both feel different meeting in person rather than through the internet – and Katey gave me just what I wanted to read.

The Majorca setting was the ideal setting for a bite-sized escapist read. Katey had me dreaming of bright blue skies, a golden beach and some sunshine whilst in reality, I was snuggled up in a blanket trying to escape from the cold.

The setting was beautiful but it was the characters that stole my attention. I loved the dynamics between Lauren and Toby – it was more like they’d known each other for ages. I would have liked a tiny bit more of them actually meeting rather than what happened leading up to the meet-cute, but that’s just me being greedy because I loved their chemistry. The Boy at the Beach was another romantic, feel-good story by Katey with a lovely ending that made me sigh with happiness.


A dreamy setting and a heart-warming ending
