Between Us: Sex on the Beach (Sex on the Beach)

by Jen McLaughlin

I'm just a girl...

I'm a famous country star who's spent her life cultivating a good girl persona to avoid bad press, but I've reached my limit. I'm going away for spring break with my two best friends from college, and we've vowed to spend the vacation seeking out fun in the sun--along with some hot, no-strings-attached sex. The only thing I needed was the perfect guy, and then I met Austin Murphy. He might be totally wrong for me, but the tattooed bad boy is hard to resist. When I'm in his arms, everything just feels right.



And I'm just a guy...

I'm just a bartender who lives in Key West, stuck in an endless cycle of boredom. But then Mackenzie Forbes, America's Sweetheart herself, comes up to me and looks at me with those bright green eyes...and everything changes. She acts like she's just a normal girl and I'm just a normal guy, but that couldn't be further from the truth. My past isn't pretty, you know. I did what I had to do to survive, and she'd run if she learned the truth about my darkness. But with her, I'm finally realizing what it's like to be alive. To laugh, live, and be happy.



All good things must come to an end...

[Cocktails and Books]

I love Jen McLaughlin…enough said. Between Us is one story in a 3 story/novella book called Sex on the Beach. The other stories are written by 2 other authors (Jennifer Probst and Jenna Bennett) and all three stories are tied together. The book follows 3 best friends as they go on spring break to Key West.

Between Us follows Mackenzie, a sweet country music star, who just wants to lose her "V" card and have a fantastic time without anyone recognizing her. Mackenzie is a very grounded girl who has her head on straight and realizes that most people just want to use her for her fame. She wears a floppy hat and colors her blond hair brown. She quickly eyes who she wants. Austin, a bartender, enjoys Mackenzie's company and quickly figures out who she really is. To Mackenzie's relief, he isn't looking for anything from her but agrees to enjoy the week of her Spring Break together. The chemistry ignites between the two of them and they both quickly realize that they need more than just a week together.

I actually enjoyed these two characters so much that I was said it was a novella and I wasn't going to get to know them more. Jen McLaughlin excels at pulling you in and making you want more. Mackenzie and Austin's story is just another reason I adore her writing!
