He is a thief.
She is his victim.
Lance King, known as Blue, is the charming, local surfer bad boy everyone falls for. This comes in handy since he enjoys taking advantage of privileged college kids as they throw money around wherever they go. What turns out to be a typical spring break quickly changes when he meets the one tourist who exceeds his expectations.
Phoebe McCormick is on her way to having the time of her life. With Panama City Beach in her sights, and her two best friends by her side, the possibilities are endless, or so she thinks. What she isn’t expecting is Blue, the local surfer to nearly ruin her long anticipated spring break. Her carefree attitude and his charismatic personality is the perfect combination for a successful friendship, but their relationship turns out to be anything but. Once the fantasy world of spring break is over and life resumes in Pennsylvania, a secret she thought she’d be able to keep hidden emerges, making it difficult to ignore.
He steals her money, but she will steal something far more valuable from him — a memento that will forever change his life.
She is a thief.
He is her victim.

~REVIEW~
Jill Patten is a first time Author for me and what a read to start me off, Blue was a beautiful read quite emotional in parts. Blue aka Lance King is a self confirmed bachelor for life till he meets the one girl that knocks him on his ass. He's the hot surfer boy that no one can tame all though he's comes across as a bit of an idiot he has a good soul and does things even though they are wrong he has good intentions. This is what leads him to that one girl Phoebe when he steals her purse, like i said with good intentions so don't be hating on him just yet.
Phoebe is on a spring break holiday which after i hard few years due to illness she desperately needed and saved so she could afford it but Phoebe has no luck and on the day she arrives she has her purse stolen. Determined to still enjoy herself with her friends a drunken night leads her to Blue.
When Blue realises this is the girl he robbed he sets out to do right by her and give her a fun filled vacation and we all know what happens on spring break stays on spring break or does it!!!
I loved how the friendship then relationship built between the two main characters and could go on and on and tell you the whole story but i really don't want to spoil this read to much. It Truly is a Beautiful fun story.

Author Bio
Jill Patten was born a Yankee, but raised a southerner. She lives in the small town of Mayberry, North Carolina which was made famous by a popular TV show back in the sixties. (Maybe there will one day be a statue of her at the end of Main Street. Ha! A girl can dream, right?)
Jill has always loved to read, even during reading labs in middle school for reading comprehension. Judy Blume was her first author she hero-worshipped, maturing to revere the works of Stephen King. With all the fantastic authors today, she simply cannot choose a favorite. Her taste is very eclectic and she loves almost all genres. When she's not captivated by her fictional characters, she spends time with her sweet husband and two beautiful children.
Music is her muse. Jill also loves elephants, sarcasm, and anything made with sugar, especially sweet tea. She enjoys all things rude and crude and laughs at stuff she probably shouldn't. She has been accused of being bossy a time or two, but doesn't really see it herself.
All in all, Jill is just a small town girl in this great big world trying to enable your book addiction.
