If you’re craving a brooding, grumpy lighthouse keeper with a dark past, you should read Tender Heart by Alexandra Banks. The story features a sunshine heroine trying to reclaim her voice. The forced proximity is so intense it crackles off the page. This small-town romantic suspense has everything. It includes secrets and sizzling chemistry. There’s also a touch-her-and-die hero that will steal your breath (and your panties).

WHAT IT IS ABOUT

Callum McCreary hid on a windswept island for years. Now, his isolated world is crashing down with the crumbling lighthouse. That lighthouse once gave him purpose. Evie Holland arrives as a last-ditch escape from her own haunted past. She also faces a looming book deadline. Sparks fly between them. Neither of them are ready to share their secrets. But some places, and some people, are too magnetic to resist.

WHY I CAN’T WAIT

Lighthouses. Butterflies. Broody men who fall hard. Alexandra Banks delivers a gorgeously written, trope-heavy story that checks every box on my emotional-slow-burn-turned-steamy list. The only one bed scene? Unhinged perfection. If you’re a fan of “touch her and die” energy, you’ll love this. This story has age gap romance with real emotional depth. Prepare to be wrecked in the best way.
