Warm Nights in Magnolia Bay

Warm Nights in Magnolia Bay

Welcome to Magnolia Bay, Book 1

by Babette de Jongh


⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐/5


This book was a delightful surprise!


Warm Nights in Magnolia Bay welcomes readers to Bayside Barn, the cozy hobby farm run for the purpose of introducing animals to children/people for their mutual healing and growth. Thats why after a messy break-up Abby decides coming to her aunts farm and taking over while she goes on sabbatical. A summer taking care of the animals and running the farm visits is just what she needs…


Until the new and handsome neighbour, Quinn moves in next door. He is not a fan of the farm and the noisy kids! He knows that it will kill his property re-sale value… The gorgeous farm girl next door isn’t too bad though… but he isn’t planning on staying.


Abby intends to keep Quinn at arms length, until circumstances necessitate his daily help on the farm, and soon she is cooking him dinner every night… and more! Things are getting cozy until a big-time real estate invested starts looking into the area and wanting to push out Bayside Barn! Quinn and Abby need to work together to save the barn, but will his initial part in this project be his and Abby’s undoing?


OK- this sounds like a typical romance, and in many ways it is, but it was so much better than that! Yes, I loved the slow burn romance between Abby and Quinn, but what really got me was the animals! In specific, the dogs. Author Babette de Jongh is a telepathic animal communicator and included this skill in Abby’s aunt and Abby! I loved the why she portrayed the commutation between the dogs and humans and between the dogs. This was a really fun and interesting element of the book! 



This is something you need to read to see! This was a great neighbours to lovers/ vacation romance. 


Warm Nights in Magnolia Bay by Babette de Jongh is schedule to released March 30th, 2021.


I received a complimentary copy from Sourcebooks Casablanca through NetGalley. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.
