4.5 Stars ⭐️ Capri is the first book the Meadows sisters duet. Capri just divorced her horrible ex-husband and goes on vacation with her sister to Italy. There she met Jones Archer in a candy store, but then one of his employees (he owns a boat charter business) invited her sister out. Jones and Capri decided to have a fling while she was in Italy. However, feelings began to develop. Jones is an American, operating his late father’s business. His mother is back in South Carolina, in a facility for people with dementia. After their fling in Italy, Capri and Jones discover that they lived in the same small town, but because he was only there for 3 months out of the year for last 10 years, they never crossed paths. This gave Capri and Jones time to develop their relationship. However, Capri still hadn’t fully dealt with how she and her ex-husband broke up.
Jones is a polite guy, but he has a very dirty mouth in the bedroom room. I really liked the storyline with his mother. Capri is very damaged from what happened to the point where she had trouble making big decisions, which makes perfect sense when someone went through was Capri went to. I loved that she was the one who groveled, and the characters were mature enough to work things out without unnecessary drama. The chemistry and romance between Capri and Jones was fantastic. The plot was entertaining.
Indy Valentine is a new author, and Capri was her third book. It was well paced, the characters were developed well, and she was able to capture the settings with words that made it possible for me to see in my mind’s eye. I look forward to reading more from her. The audiobook was fantastic, and Sebastian York and Stefanie Kay’s narrations were on point! They captured the emotions and spice well.
