    Low-Angst Emotional Friends-to-Lovers Story
  

*by J***E on Reviewed in the United States on January 15, 2022*

Behind His Eyes by Claire Kingsley is book 1 in her Jetty Beach series. It was originally titled Must Be Love and was first released July 14, 2016. I’ve had this book on my Kindle for about a year and decided to read it as a part of Claire Kingsley’s January 2022 Reading Challenge.I really loved this story. Ryan and Nicole were so perfect together! My heart broke for Ryan when his mind started to slip back into that dark place. Depression is a nasty mental illness and I loved how Claire handled it in the book and with Ryan. I loved that Nicole stood up for herself against Ryan when he was pushing her away and I loved how open and honest he was with her when he finally got the help that he needed.I loved Ryan’s family, especially his relationship with Cody. I loved how Cody kept inserting himself into Ryan’s life (even when he was being annoying) and I loved how he was able to recognize what was happening and helped Ryan see that he needed to get help. I love family-centered romance series. I love the strong family bond they have (even if they're fighting) and I love that there's almost always a guarantee that I'm going to see past characters sprinkled throughout the series. Having read Claire’s Bootleg Springs (that she wrote with Lucy Score), Miles Family and Bailey Brothers series, Claire excels in telling these stories. I can’t wait to read more about this family and their friends; especially Cody, Hunter and Melissa!Jetty Beach reminds me of some of the local beaches around me (especially Cape May and LBI.) I always thought it would be fun to live on or near the beach and this book allowed me to imagine what that life would look like.If you’re looking for a low-angst, emotional friends-to-lovers story, this is the book for you.

    Nicole and Ryan are the it couple!
  

*by J***A on Reviewed in the United States on August 4, 2017*

Nicole feeling down on her luck and betrayed by her boyfriend decides to head back to her home town of Jetty Beach. Jetty Beach is the last place she wants to be, but she has nowhere else to go. She tries to get over a broken heart while reconnecting with her childhood friend, Melissa, but it's a struggle. She's assaulted by memories of her time with her ex-boyfriend, Jason as a lot of those memories were formed in Jetty Beach.Nicole never plan on being drawn in by another guy. She never plan on feeling an attraction to her other childhood friend, Ryan.  She feels an intense sexual attraction to Ryan. He's unbelievably sexy and sweet. She's shocked at her body's response to him. She isn't in the market for another relationship, but she's unable to fight her feelings for Ryan. Putting some distance between Ryan and herself seems like a good enough task, but they are still forced to work together on Jetty's Beach annual art festival.Ryan has always carried a torch for the very beautiful and sexy as sin Nicole. He's surprised to see her back in Jetty Beach. His body's reaction to her is immediate and extreme. He's wanted her for the longest time, but he knew she never saw him in the same light as he did her. After all, she's always been a bombshell and popular, and he'd been an outsider and a late bloomer.Ryan never saw what Nicole ever saw in douchebag Jason. He knew she deserved better, way better. He comes back to Jetty Beach to reinvent himself, to start over again and to get away from his old demons. He never counted on his deep desire for Nicole, the girl that got away. He only ever dreamed of being with her, wanting her. Nicole is exactly what he needs.Like Nicole, Ryan isn't looking for another relationship, but his feelings for her are out of his control. His mind and body seem to be at war when it comes to Nicole, his longtime crush. He can't fight the pull to her, it's inevitable. He and Nicole seem to just click. Everything between them feels natural and full of electricity. Ryan is exactly want Nicole needs.Claire Kingsley does amazing job writing this book and I loved every second of it. I loved the story and the characters. I fell in love with Ryan and Nicole, loving how they both overcame their differences and having a fresh start. They were the perfect match in my opinion. I also loved how the author used real life experiences to craft together this highly believable story.

    A good read!
  

*by L***R on Reviewed in the United States on September 13, 2020*

Another well-written story from this author!Nicole gets her heart broken and goes back home to Jetty Beach to get away from the pain and humiliation. One night while out drinking, she runs into a childhood friend, Ryan. They met when they were much younger, and lordy, has he grown up.After they are both put on the same committee to put together the town’s art festival, they reconnect and become closer.Ryan is kind and caring and super sexy and it was easy to fall for him. He and Nicole are good together, but they needed to work some things out.This story deals with some sensitive and emotional topics, so along with some laughs and steamy scenes, there’s also emotional scenes that pull at the heartstrings.It’s possible I might’ve enjoyed this more if I had read it instead of listened to it. I still liked it enough to want to read the next book in the series though!I listened to the audiobook and I thought the narrators did a decent job.
