    About this audiobook

    An adult summer camp heats up quickly in this simmering romance from New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Jill Sanders.

    Zoey Rowlett knows putting her savings into a run-down summer camp is risky. But River Camp has sentimental value—it’s where she met her best friends and coinvestors. Their plan is to turn the Florida camp into a sexy retreat for wealthy snowbirds looking for love, and if Zoey finds love, too, that would be just fine.

    Dylan Rhodes and his brothers are on a secret mission to find their father. He’s absconded with a large sum of money, and Dylan thinks he might be buzzing around this wild new summer camp. Hoping for answers, Dylan takes a job at the camp. But every time he sees Zoey, he forgets what he’s looking for.

    Zoey and Dylan have a lot on their plates already, but all they want to do is devour each other. Can Dylan keep his eyes off Zoey’s bikini and stay focused? And can Zoey keep her hands off Dylan long enough to run the camp?

      I do love this series but I am ready for a heroine who does NOT get pregnant by the end of the book, or is pregnant in the enxt book. Love is not all about bearing children!
    • 5/5
      Recently divorced, Annabelle Weiss is rebuilding her life as a librarian in Fool's Gold. She left her marriage because her husband didn't really know her and expected her to fill a role that wasn't really her. She hasn't given up on love, but her next romance will be with someone who lets her be herself.

      Shane Stryker has come back to Fool's Gold to open his horse breeding operation in a town he loves. He is also divorced. In his case, his wife was serially unfaithful to him. For his next relationship, he wants a woman who will be faithful and maybe even a little boring. He isn't looking for drama in his next relationship.

      Shane first sees Annabelle when he walks into Jo's Bar and sees her dancing on the bar. It really was innocent; she's demonstrating a Maa-zib dance. But Shane sees a woman that reminds him too much of his ex-wife.

      They meet when Annabelle needs to learn to ride a horse in order to take part in a fundraiser for a new bookmobile for her library. They are attracted to each other but their conflicting desires for new relationships and baggage both are still carrying means a lot of difficulties for the couple.

      I like that there are strong friendships among the characters. I really like the time spent at Castle Ranch where Shane's mother is building quite a menagerie including an elephant named Priscilla who is lonely and in need of companionship. Shane's Arabian stallion Khatar is also a great character. He has a bad reputation but falls in love with Annabelle and follows her around like a puppy.

      This is a great entry into a long-running series which catches the reader up on characters from earlier books and spends time with characters who were side characters in earlier books who might have their own romances in future books.

      Susan Mallery is one of my favorite authors and I usually give her books higher ratings but this one wasn't my favorite. The story was good, but there just parts that were repeated a lot in this story. That wasn't something I have noticed in her previous books. I would give it a 3.5. I liked the story well enough. I'm very excited for the next book as it is Charlie's story and she is one of my favorite characters.
    • 5/5
      I just love all three "summer" books. The brothers are all so different and interesting (and hot, let's face it). And Fool's Gold sounds lovely. I read these three basically back to back and wasn't sick of them at all... but... I haven't wanted to read any of the other fools gold books. I think it's because several of the characters you meet in the summer books met their honeys in prior books--so it feels so "done" already. I'm sure when I'm bored and looking for something to read, I'll crack the rest of the series open.

      This was another fun Fool's Gold novel. The perfect weekend read.

      Summer Nights

      Ok So I enjoyed annabelle. I love her character. She seems more real and down to earth than most the people I have read about in fools gold (just my opinion)

      I didnt like the story as much as I enjoyed the characters. I love it when we get to see everyone from fools gold. I like the story line dont get me wrong, I just felt it was a bit drug out.

      The bond between Heidi Charlie and annabelle is that of sisters and I always enjoy their little get togethers.

      Kahtar oh How I LOVE kahtar. that horse is a character of his own. All in all it was a good read fun enjoyable and def not lacking on the sex scene department :)
    • 3/5
      Shane and Annebelle have been married and burned. So neither is interested in a relationship. So why is Shane getting caught up in wanting to help Annabelle with the bookmobile drive, teaching little girls how to ride horses and then, to beat all, his "difficult" horse decides that he's in love with Annabelle? What's a guy to do?
    • 3/5
      Another enjoyable Fool's Gold book.

      This one centered around animals, books and of course Fool's Gold.
    • 2/5
      I liked the story, but did not find the Hero particularly likable. Worse yet, his redemption seemed to occur in two spurts, and neither explained well enough to make them believable (i.e., seemed pushed into it, rather than growing into it). The Heroine was a needy, predictable character, and I still don't understand her explanation for the bar dance (first chapter, folks). Something needs to be shaken up with the Fool's Gold Series. Maybe a move from Fools' Gold? Maybe a different narrator?

      Summer Nights by Susan Mallery

      Annabelle Weiss was the dancer on the bar, in real life, she's the librarian, showing her friends the happy dance of the virgin. She had to raise money for her bookmobile at the festival and knows the dance of the horses might be the thing to learn and do it herself. She had divorced her author husband and had moved on.
      He witnessed the dance but Shane Stryker was only on the bar for a beer and a burger, then he left. He is the horse whisperer and that is what attracted me to this book. Have seen many shows on documentary tv about them and what they accomplish.
      It's just so fascinating. He was now divorced, having married the woman he thought he loved. He moved his horses from TN to Fool's Gold, stabling them at his mothers barns til his house and barns were ready.
      His mother was gonna set him up with the librarian. he just wanted a regular woman to love him til he found out she was the red head dancer from the night before, the one who haunted him and his dreams at night.
      Montana who was due any day with Simon's baby led the dog into the library. He was a tutor and helped relax himself when the children read to him.
      All the females of Fool's Gold are helping Heidi with her wedding plans.
      Jo's Bar should have the other room finished for such things as bridal showers and even weddings.
      Annabelle was taking horse riding lessons using Charlie's horse and she did grasp onto the killer stallion and they went around the corral a bit til it was time to end the lesson. She couldn't believe the horse was a killer horse. He was so gentle with her on his back.
      She was getting tingles when Shane caught her upon unmounting from the horse.
      The deal: Her choice of household accessories for him and he was to teach little girls how to ride ponies.
      He needs to reword most of what he says to her, he learns in time...
      Subplot about Charlie and her past and her wishes arise and she talks to many about it.
      Steamy hot sex scenes like riding a horse top off this novel that make it complete.
      Love learning about the horses, races and other facts.

      Oh, Shane, Shane, Shane. Talk about issues! So adorable, such a genuinely nice guy, and yet so utterly clueless. Based on a few milliseconds of watching a complete stranger dancing on a bar, he proceeds to spend the majority of twenty chapters measuring Annabelle with a flawed yardstick. Even when he realizes what he's done, he keeps on doing it. And yet—I, along with Annabelle, love him anyway. But yeesh, he waits until the very last minute to pull it all together! (And even though you know practically from chapter three how he's going to do it, it was fun to read. If anyone deserved that kind of public spectacle, it would be Shane. And Annabelle, for that matter. He so owed her.) At least we all know that we'll get to see more of them as the series continues, since the book that follows will be about the last of the three friends, Charlie, and the third Stryker brother, Clay, professional model and butt double. (Is it just me, or does anyone else hear Joey from "Friends" in their heads saying, "Al Pacino goes into the shower and bam! there's my butt!")
      Again, the animals steal the show. Priscilla the elephant is lonely for a herd, and adopts various other strays into her pack, including a mother cat and her kittens, a pony, and a pig. Misunderstood but beautiful Arabian stallion Khatar is hands down one of my most favorite characters—he obviously sees Annabelle for the not-at-all-Shane's-ex-wife that she is nineteen chapters before his owner. If only horses could talk, he'd have given Shane the tongue lashing that he deserved, like any other self-respecting resident of Fool's Gold would. All in all, this one has me chomping at the bit to read Charlie's story, in the hopes that it will be just as hard to put down.

      Fool's Gold continues to be one of my favorite series. Susan Mallery writes such loveable characters that you can't help but fall in love with all of them. Summer Nights is a wonderful love story between Shane and Annabelle that teaches readers not to judge new love by the harm an old love caused. It blends friendship and romance perfectly and leaves you wanting to read the next novel, All Summer Long as soon as possible. :D
    • 5/5
      This is the second book of the latest Fool’s Gold trilogy about the Stryker brothers. Shane Stryker has come to Fool’s Gold to start a horse ranch adjacent to the property his mother and brother Rafe own. Shane is divorced, having been in a hellacious marriage, and wants his next serious romance to be with a nice, faithful woman.
      Annabelle Weiss is the Fool’s Gold Librarian and is also divorced from a man who belittled and controlled her. She is looking for someone to love her unconditionally. Unfortunately for her, the first time Shane meets her is when she impulsively jumps upon the bar in Jo’s place to demonstrate the dance of the happy virgin from the Maa-zib. Shane immediately paints with the same brush as his ex-wife. When Annabelle turns up at his ranch for riding lessons, Shane manages to insult her in short order. He apologizes and the riding lessons continue and they get to know each other as time goes along. Annabelle does find immediate unconditional love from someone on the ranch- a beautiful horse named Khatar
      Both of the people in this romance have baggage from previous relationships that shapes how this one develops. Shane is definitely interested but he keeps acting like a jerk and messing things up. Annabelle has feelings for Shane but she keeps getting rebuffed and forgives him but then it happens again. Both people get lots of advice from well- meaning friends but the changes have to come from inside for the relationship to really work out.
      Fool’s Gold works its magic again with Shane and Annabelle. Favorite characters from previous books make frequent appearances and we get to see how their lives are progressing which is always nice. We also get a hint of who the next lucky couple will be. This is a great summer romance that has a little drama, a little humor and keeps the readers interest all the way through.

      Summer Nights is another Fool's Gold story. Its fun to see the characters from other stories back. I enjoyed reading Summer Nights. Their was a few love scenes that I skipped over.
      Shane Stryker is back in Fool's Gold living with his mother May, her boyfriend Glen, his brother Rafe, and his Fiance Heidi, who is Glen granddaughter.
      Shane has bought land next to Rafe's and his building a house, barn. He raises racehorses. Besides just taking care of his own animals, he is taking care of his mother's animals that keep showing up. He is learning about the elephant that she has and that she needs friends. So they are trying all different animals for her and the ones that work are funny.
      Annabelle Weiss is a librarian that has fun, smart, sexy, caring and is good friends with Charlie Dixon & Heidi.
      Heidi is raising goats, sells cheese, milk. She got engaged in Summer nights to Rafe.
      Charlie Dixon is a tall firefighter that does not date but is thinking of becomming a single mom. I feel like her story is coming up soon.
      Annabelle is trying to raise money for a bookmobile that she can get books, computers to those that are more housebound. Right now she takes boxes of books in her trunk for a few different groups of people.
      Annabelle, Charlie & Heidi come up with the idea of Annabelle take horse lessons from Shane and in the summer and with the horse dancing. The Dance of the Horse and dance of the happy virgin is a Maa-zib tradition hundreds of years ago.
      Shane wants to have a family but after his divorce wants a plain, simple woman not passion and wild like his first wife. Heidi does not fit into what he wants except that he does want her.
      The town is very involved in each others business as Shane finds out that he gets volunteered to teach girls to ride too. When Shane says he does not have horses for beginners. Horse's show up and saddles. Plus other animals show up that people think would be good friends for Priscilla the elephant herd.
      I look forward to reading more books about Fool's Gold. I was given this ebook to read in exchange for honest review from Netgalley.

      This book is the 8th book under the Fool's Gold series by the author and this time, it tells the story of one of the three Stryker; Shane and Annabelle. Both of them have their own past and at first glance, Annabelle reminded him of his ex-wife; Rachel. Hence, he knew that this person is not to be trusted eventhough his gut and feeling tell him differently. Annabelle, a librarian by profession, aim to buy a mobile to transport the books to the rural area, decided to dance with a horse to raise fund for the mobile and to do so, she needed Shane's help.

      I have read a few of Susan's books and it have never dissappoint me. Overall, i enjoyed reading this one and i hope that there is a book on Charlie, who is the best friend of Annabelle. I like her character very much!
