Down the Shore was a cute, albeit pretty predictable book. Livia is a fun-loving girl, always out for a good time. The Jersey Shore in the 1990’s sounds like a blast & Livia and her friends made the best of it. Then, she meets Jack.
Jack is a gorgeous rock star with a great body—Livia’s usual type—but Jack isn’t your typical rock star. He is looking for more than just a good time, when he meets Livia, he decides that he wants her.
During a torturous self-imposed period of celibacy, Jack and Livia really get to know each other. They develop a relationship and things seem to be going well—until they are not.
Although I mentioned the story is somewhat predictable, Torrest does do a good job of keeping the reader in suspense towards the end of the story. I was very worried I was not going to get the happy ending I always crave! Overall this was a cute book, I enjoyed the music references—even though by the 90’s I home having kids and not so much in the concert/club scene anymore. Read this one, you will enjoy it.This book was reviewed by a member of the review staff at Cocktails and Books. The name of the reviewer can be found under the post categories.
