At nineteen, artist Reese Nicholson was swept off her feet by the handsome, charming, and incredibly sensual Trent Rockwell. After a whirlwind courtship, they married and moved to New York City, where they hoped all of their personal and professional dreams would come true. But six months later, Reese returned to Rockwell Island brokenhearted and disillusioned.
For a decade, Trent and Reese carefully kept their distance. But all it takes is one accidental late-night encounter to immediately stir the desires they have both tried to bury deep. Powerless to resist the heat between them, every passionate kiss, loving caress, and heartfelt apology draws them closer together. So close that they can’t help but wonder if the promises they once made to love each other forever are still true…

This is the 2nd book in the Love on Rockwell Island series. I always caution you as a reader, to read the series books in order. It helps to enjoy the book, as well as giving complete understanding with the way the authors intended. I believe this book is just as good as a standalone, but I give you the warning nonetheless.
This book takes place on the beautiful Rockwell Island, where the siblings have come home by command - per their Grandfather - to run the family resort. The main characters here are Trent Rockwell and Reese Nicholson, who were married 10 years ago. They broke up 6 months later.
Here is where it gets tricky. I do not want to give spoilers or offend anyone who is currently enjoying this book. I will just let you know now, proceed with caution!
Reese left Trent in New York, since she was just too scared and too young to handle it. He was busy trying to make it there, and in his career. I have a hard time with this part of the story - mainly because it weaved much too strongly in the book - and seemed to always make Trent the only person who did anything wrong in their marriage breaking up.
I feel like I am gratified, since by the end of the story, we hear apologies from both of them. Only the thread is already there and still weaving in the story. I was very pleased with the great quotes this book has! I was also impressed with the obvious show of character development and maturity that Reese and Trent both have.
Due to the nature of the book, and the HEA I was finally given, I can say that I was pleased overall with the story. I feel like there are many parts that are just so sweet and endearing. I found that I want to talk about the characters with others so maybe - if there is a support group, I will join.

CAPE COD PROMISES (Love on Rockwell Island)

Oh Lord. She’d forgotten how deep and sexy his voice was and how when he said her name, it vibrated all the way through her.
Even after all these years, he still had the ability to turn her inside out.
As he picked up the driftwood on which she’d painted a scene for Shelley and drew his dark brows together as he studied it, Reese couldn’t resist making a quick visual inspection of her own. The line of his jaw had sharpened over the years, and the peppering of dark whiskers gave him an edgier feel than the suit-and-tie Trent she’d remembered from their life in New York.
Did he still have to be so darn good-looking? So gorgeous that her pulse didn’t have a chance of staying steady when he was this near to her.
