About this ebook

He didn’t believe in love at first sight… Until it happened to him.

Finn McCarthy, the youngest of the McCarthy cousins, is at a crossroads. As the lease on his Gansett Island rental comes to an end, he's making plans to return to his “real” life on the mainland. He’s enjoyed the nearly two years on Gansett with his boisterous fun-loving family, but it’s time to get back to the life he put on hold when he came to the island for his cousin’s wedding—and never left. With renovations to the Wayfarer, the family’s latest business endeavor, all but completed and the grand opening slated for Memorial Day weekend, the time is right to make a move. That is until he stops by the local salon for a quick trim that turns his life plan upside down...

Chloe Dennis, owner of the Curl Up and Dye Salon, is about to close the shop after another ordinary day when Finn McCarthy walks in and turns the ordinary into the extraordinary. Holy hotness! How has she never met the youngest of the McCarthys, and now that she has met him, why is it that she runs into him everywhere she goes?

Despite the undeniable sizzle of attraction between Finn and Chloe, she is dealing with life-changing news that makes her reluctant to get involved with anyone, let alone a man who plans to leave the island for good in two short weeks. Finn can’t understand why he reacts to Chloe the way he does or why she won’t give him a chance to see what they could be. When she makes it clear that it’s not going to happen between them, what else can he do but go forward with his plan to pack up and leave at the end of the month? Unless the push-pull of undeniable desire makes them forget the many reasons why this could be a bad idea...

Return to Gansett Island for another visit with all the series regulars and to find out if Finn and Chloe can overcome the obstacles that stand between them and the possibility of true love. Catch up with Mac, Maddie, Adam, Abby, Riley, Nikki, Blaine and Tiffany, attend Shane and Katie's wedding, and find out what happens when Blaine’s troubled brother Deacon comes to the island. Get ready for another hot, sexy summer on Gansett Island!

One of the things I love about this authors writing is how she brings her characters to life how she makes me feel like I’m home visiting family and friends, this may be book 20 in the Gansett Island Series but that doesn’t mean this series is getting stale in fact I would go as far as to say for me this is one of the best stories in the series. Finn McCarthy is the youngest McCarthy cousins and his time on Gansett Island was always meant to be temporary and after spending two years on the Island he is desperate to get back to his real life on the mainland but that was before he spent time with Chole and the Island love bug struck again..... I read this book in one sitting I had to know the outcome I had to know why Chole couldn’t or wouldn’t commit to a relationship and I had to know the outcome for this loveable couple. I loved being back on Gansett and the banter the McCarthy’s their families and friends share never gets old once again I found myself giggling and smiling at the antics of residents. I love that Marie Force still manages to introduce new characters and new story lines so far into what is one of my favourite series and I can’t wait to see where we are taken next .

4.5⭐ Yours After Dark was an extremely enjoyable, sweet story. That also had a little angst and a really likable couple in Finn and Chloe. Not to mention a great storyline that easily kept me engaged throughout. As it was so full of humour, love, more babies, a proposal, a wedding and even strippers. And honestly, I found it very hard to put down and would happily recommend it to others.

Marie did it again! I very much enjoy every trip to Gansett Island and this was not the exception! Finn and Chloe's story was funny and sexy. I enjoyed catching up with the McCarthy gang. Thank you Marie for another wonderful trip!
