Sunkissed

By: Kasie West

Narrated by: Phoebe Strole

A swoony contemporary YA romance by fan-favorite author Kasie West about a girl who finds that a summer spent at a family resort isn't as bad as she imagined...and that falling in love is filled with heartache, laughter, and surprises!

Avery has always used music as an escape. But after her best friend betrays her, even her perfectly curated playlists can't help her forget what happened. To make matters worse, her parents have dragged her and her social-media-obsessed sister to a remote family camp for two months of "fun". Just when Avery is ready to give up on the summer altogether, she meets Brooks - mysterious, frustratingly charming Brooks - who just happens to be on staff - which means he's off-limits.

What starts as a disaster turns into...something else. As the outside world falls away, Avery embarks on a journey of self-discovery. And when Brooks offers her the chance of a lifetime, she must figure out how far is she willing to go to find out what she wants and who she wants to be.

Fan favorite Kasie West is back with another unforgettable summer romance that reminds us falling in love is full of wonder, heartache, and - most of all - surprises.

Critic reviews

"Hits all the right notes." (Kirkus Reviews)

“Light, frothy, swoony! Readers who rip through romances in the summer will be happy to have this peeking out of their beach bags.” (School Library Journal)

Loved!!!

An amazing cheesy romance about Brookes not being able to date Avery because he worked at the camp she was at. (They made it work) ❤️😘🥰

Loved this sweet story

This book was sweet and fun to read. I’m a mom of 3 teens and I recommended it to them. There are so many inappropriate books and this was not. It was a great read. It’s great self discovery.

one of the best books I've read

wow wow wow!!! loved this book so much, couldn't stop smiling! buy it !
also, love Phoebe's voice, and the way she reads !

amazing

just sooo amazing
definitely recommended!!!!!
the characters were so well developed and the story was also very nice

Kasie west does it again!

This might be one of my new favorites of hers. I’m so sad it’s finished now.

Worth my time

I like the story very much cause even though it was a teenage romance it was NOT based on a High school setting. I enjoyed a lot the different scenario, the camping place was so out of the ordinary in a COOL way and the male lead was not the cliche football captain, he was STAFF and I like that!. Thank you so much Kasie for making this beautiful story. You put a lot of personality into the sister, she was annoying and caring, she was a true sister. I would totally recommend this book. And I almost forgot, The narrator’s voice “ Phoebe Strole” was so freaking talented been able to do all of the voices.

Sweet

Such a lovely book, I truly believe Kasie West can do no wrong. All the characters were endearing and I found the main character to be so relatable. The lyrics were gorgeous and should be real songs. Love story felt genuine for a teen romance. Looking forward to more from her.

Cute story

I like the story as a whole. Its light hearted, easy reading. But as always kasie needs to work on characters and conversation. Most characters are poorly developed and 1 demontional. Often the Conversations lack any real substance, deepth, humor, or soul...and too simple minded. It just boring. Every main character in the Potter books was so unique, expressive, so much detail and attention was given to every conversation. I wish Kasie would work on that. Her books would be more enjoyable to read.

Adorable

This was a totally charming story. I loved Avery and Brooks equally and I loved seeing how they grew throughout the story both as individuals and of course together! I also loved Avery’s relationship with her parents and especially her sister. This was one very sweet HEA!

The narration was great and made the characters come alive!

I love her books

I love her books, I found this one to be slightly underwhelming. I will have to read it one more time just to make sure that I feel different or the same for this book. I know I am able to read her books without falling asleep without getting distracted and it just captivates me. This one had a little bit too many boring parts. I like when the book started getting to the middle when it had about three hours left. That is when it kept my attention. For I understand that there was a lot to explain yes nothing was clearly explained and this character was very wishy-washy. I’m hoping that your next book will be something captivating. Or I will keep reading your other box this one I’ll get one more shot and then will be placed on the list of I read that( listened )
