One woman
One man
An empty bed and breakfast
A summer storm
One night they’ll never forget – so they thought…
When my aunt passed away and left me her dilapidated bed and breakfast it was all so surreal. I hadn’t been back to that beach in many years, and the idea of revisiting left me sad and vulnerable.
I never planned on having guests. In fact, I just wanted to close up the place and sell it, so that I could move on with my life.
Then the storm happened.
Taken by surprise, I planned on waiting for it to pass. The house creaked and the power went out. That’s when someone knocked on the door.
He was a stranger, dripping wet, cold, and looking for shelter. I couldn’t turn him away…
What happened next between us opened new doors, changing everything I thought I wanted for myself.
The only question is if I can trust him, or will his secrets destroy it all?

Carla’s 5 Star Review
5 stars for Riding it Out by Jennifer Foor.! Jennifer Foor is one of my most favorite authors, so I was excited to receive this book to read and review. Although this book is quite different from her best selling Mitchell series, it was just as enjoyable!
Erica is a young woman who is married to her career. While devoting all of her time to climbing the corporate ladder, her social life is non existent. When her favorite aunt passes away, Erica learns that she has inherited her bed and breakfast. When she arrives in the small coastal Alabama town where she spent most of her childhood, Erica finds herself in one heck of a summer storm. When a stranded motorcyclist shows up on the porch of the bed and breakfast seeking shelter, she has no idea how her life is about to change.
Shawn Reed is a sexy ex marine, and he and Erica are instantly attracted to one another. They share a night of unbridled passion then he leaves because he knows that Erica doesn’t really know what she wants out of life. When Erica decides to leave her job to run the bed and breakfast, Reed comes back into her life and the two end up falling in love. There is just one problem- Reed is keeping secrets, and when his past is exposed, Erica feels betrayed. Can she look past his lies or will his secrets destroy their chance at happiness?
This was really a great read! There were many twists and turns that kept me on the edge of my seat. While this is a story of two people finding love, it is so much more than your typical every day love story. Foor is an excellent author who knows how to draw her readers in with her great characters and story lines. Do yourself a favor, and one click this book now! I promise you will not be disappointed!
