Finding Haven
Finding Haven #1
by T.A. Foster
Power. Money. Control. Love.
He has all but one.
When movie star, Evan Carlson, discovers his girlfriend’s picture with another man splashed on the cover of gossip magazines, he decides he’s had enough of his fishbowl life and attempts to outrun the media frenzy his relationships have become. Driving until the road stops, he ends up on the remote and quaint Perry Island, where a heartthrob can blend in like the locals and be a beach bum as long as he wants. All that changes when Evan meets Haven Owen, aspiring songwriter and the girl he just can’t get enough of. A summer romance turns into something much deeper and Evan gets tangled in his own web of lies to keep Haven in his life. But when his ex tracks him down, Evan learns there are some things you just can’t outrun.
Is the cost of love, losing all control?

**I received a copy for an honest review.**
This was sweet and a tad steamy, beach summer romance. I liked the characters and their stories. I enjoyed getting to know the depths of their characters and how their story would unfold. This is pretty much your typical Hollywood heartthrob that has had enough of his fishbowl life and wants to find something meaningful, although not necessarily in a woman, just something different.
What Evan didn't expect was to be attracted to the island general store clerk, who turns out to be so much more that he first thought. I really liked the first meet between Haven and "Jay" (Evan) even though it wasn't anything special, it was a great way to start. They didn't really have that insta-love but they did have a somewhat memorable meet and from then on it was pretty fun to read. I liked that the author took her time in developing the relationship between the two characters and didn't have them jump right into being in love. Now, don't get me wrong, they definitely had the hot and heavy down once they decided to hang out. It was just so hard for them to resist even if they both tried not to.
Now, earlier I mentioned that this was your typical Hollywood heartthrob romance and in a way that is true. Evan fled from his celebrity life and left behind a woman, although he situation was a bit different than most, but it just seemed similar to book that I have read in the past with the same kind of storyline with the same beach scene. I guess I am just suffering a case of overexposure.
I would recommend this book to anyone who likes to read about the heartthrob who really does have a heart of gold. Also, I haven't mentioned that Evan does hold a special place with me because he is a Texan Hollywood Heartthrob. This is the first book in the Finding Haven series with Red Lines being book 2. I am curious to see how Evan and Haven's relationship is tried and tested in the next book.
