My Killer Vacation: A Novel

Product Information

It Happened One Summer has a spice level of 4/5, easily one of the most spiciest books by Tessa Bailey. It Happened One Summer Spicy Chapters Work it tight, baby. Baby. Perfect for me. Jesus Christ. Don’t you ever get hurt on me again. Don’t you ever.” The relationship was sweet, funny and surprisingly way less cringe than what I expect a Tessa Bailey book to be. Taylor, a schoolteacher in her mid-twenties, doesn’t expect anything too out of the ordinary on a vacation with her brother, Jude, in Cape Cod. They’ll be in relax mode, go to the beach, explore the sleepy town and have fun along the way. But before all that fun can even begin, there’s a hitch in the plan—that being the dead body found in their holiday rental house. Suddenly, there are police and news crews and a bounty hunter called Myles, eight years her senior, crashing into Taylor’s life, and where Myles is concerned, heart, too.

It's my first Tessa Bailey book and I absolutely adored it. I see what the hype is about. This book is pretty close to perfection. I liked how fast pace it was, never a dull moment. The murder mystery kept me intrigued and the romance had me feeling butterflies 🥰

I think Myles might just be the horniest character I’ve ever had the displeasure of encountering in a book, and that’s saying something. Maybe this wouldn’t be an issue if there wasn’t A MURDER TO SOLVE! Get your head in the game dude. The horndog came across as really creepy in my opinion. And Taylor uses racially-coded language when describing Myles, saying he looks like a “criminal” and a “gorilla” on separate instances early in the book.

the writing also ain't it and i have zero hopes for this murder mystery tbh. i should have learned my lesson with Verity because thriller/mystery and romance do not mix well Taylor's character growth was one of my favorite things about this book. So far she's lived a very safe and boring life, with her routine of being a teacher and dating boring financial bros who are 2 pump vanilla chumps in the bedroom. Taylor is a second grade teacher who wants to have a relaxing vacation with her brother in Cape Cod. When they arrive at the rental house the owners dead body is discovered. So much for a relaxing vacation 🙃! Taylor immediately is determined to help solve the mystery. Myles, who is a bounty hunter, is on the case and really does not want Taylor’s help. He acts all grumpy and annoyed with her but cannot seem to stay away from her. Will they be able to solve the murder? We readers are immediately informed that he's NEVER felt like this before. Never been so attracted to another woman, never wanted another oyster like he craves hers. I have to let go of her hand to reach for my wallet, but I keep an eye on it as I pay for the ice cream, so I can collect it again as soon as possible.

Don’t think of her wrapping her thighs tighter, tilting her hips and praising me for my healthy swimmers.”

I don't mind it, I do think Tessa Bailey is great at writing erotica, but it's so obvious that it's the plot of the book. Not Taylor and Jude’s little holiday, not the mystery murder… the plot is these two having sex.The chemistry between Taylor and Miles was sooo hot 🥵!! Their connection and understanding of what the other person needed was incredible. I loved how they were honest and communicated like adults. Jude is amazing at anything water-related,” I say, patting his arm. “There’s no reason we have to let a broken window ruin his vacation.” the writing also ain't it and i have zero hopes for this murder mystery tbh. i should have learned my lesson with Verity because thriller/mystery and romance do n Here's what's difficult: she is getting better and less cringe as time goes by when it comes to romance, but for a muder mystery? This was so so incredibly and torturously: Taylor is cringy, but Myles is even worse. And together? They're the cringiest couple that has ever dared to cringe.

Yes, that’s what I meant.❞ - please this girl is so down bad for her brother that she forgot who PAID for the vacation 😭 petition to change Taylor's career into being a caretaker for her brother.I don't think it's a bad story, I didn't dislike it, but when you close the book and think of what you’ve just read you realise it wasn't that good. Myles is not that hot and Taylor is a caricature of the classic good girl. And when it came to that murder mystery—the reason I was so excited for this to begin with—I was disappointed there too. I wanted clues and suspects and red herrings. Instead, the story just eventually revealed the guilty party, without any sort of buildup.
