This is a great first book in a new series. The setting is fun and fresh and not over-done, and it actually makes me wish I could go to an adult summer camp for some fun.

Zoey and her Wildflower sisters' dedication to reopening the camp that she loved as a child is a lot of fun to read. The complication that Dylan and his brothers bring when they arrive to work at the camp make for some seriously fun hijinx and even though Zoe is suspicious of Dylan from the start, she can't help but fall for him in the end. Dylan came to the camp on a mission to expose Zoey as the reason why his dad took money from their company, but as events unfold, he starts to question if this is truly the case.

Jill Sanders is a strong writer, and she makes you feel like you are truly there experiencing the events along with the characters. This series is off to a great start with a little bit of mystery and a lot of love. The side characters, in the form of campers, Wildflower Sisters and Dylan's brothers, add a lot to the story and make it a truly enjoyable read.

I'm really looking forward to more books in this series..

The story of a group of friends, who have inherited an old summer camp and set about re-opening it for adults.

The focus of the book is Zoey, and her relationship with Dylan. She knows he is keeping secrets but will it keep them apart?

A bit of a slow start to this new series by Jill Sanders....Lot's of secrets going on, sometimes hard to keep track of! But overall, I loved the characters, the idea of 5 friends taking over their old summer camp, and making it an adult only retreat! When Dylan and his brothers apply to work, they are a hot trio, who seem to have the biggest secret to hide. The things that go on at this camp are quite hysterical, and here the girls thought having adults would be easier!
Follow along with the characters, and all the stuff going on at the camp, I'm actually looking forward to the next book in this series! 4 stars for this one!

A new series by Jill Shalvis,,Wildflowers. I enjoyed this read although I felt the characters were a little too young for the setting. Although as an older adult it would be more realistic to have an adult Summer Camp. I will still have to grab the next in the series because it left me wondering!

The perfect start to an amazing new series! I'm so excited to see what Jill comes up with next. Please don't make me wait too long.

I tend to like Jill Sanders books and even though I can't say that I hated this book I wont say that I loved it.. See my reason is that this group just seemed like they acted more like teenagers to me than adults. The two main characters romance was based on lies to each other, so even though they were hot for each other that was basically their relationship in a nut shell their attraction because they were lying to each other and Zoey kept forgiving Dylan and I am not a fan of lying..It just does not start of a meaningful relationship good, yes I get that he was trying to do something I get all of that but I just think that he should have fessed up sooner and I get she should have had more of a back bone anyway all of this annoyed me and didn't let me enjoy the book as much. However I might, depending on what else is out there at the time, an read they next book in the series.

This is the first book I have read by this author and after reading Summer Nights I will certainly be checking her other books. This is a perfect Summer holiday read and a great start to the new Wildflowers Series. This series is centred around five girls who reopen the summer camp after the death of the owner and that’s where Dylan and Zoe meet, the attraction is instant and the banter witty but Zoey is not easily won over and it’s going to take some time and effort for Dylan to win her trust.... Looking forward to who’s story is next in this series

Summer Nights by Jill Sanders is the 1st book in the Wildflowers series, five girls meet at summer camp, and become life long friends. The girls are now adults and have investigated in redoing the camp to turn it into an adult sexy retreat. Three brothers have come to the camp, to get a job and to find their father. I found this book to be a quick read and a lot of fun. I am looking forward to reading the next book in the series. I highly recommend this book.

I reviewed a digital arc provided by NetGalley and the publisher. Thank you.

I've seen Jill Sanders books, but never took the time to pick one up. Thanks to NetGalley, I've read a new author. I wasn't quite sure where this story would go and was surprised this ended the way it did. It's not often I pick up a story that ends with a cliffhanger, but where this story was going and the characters helped make it interesting enough that I wouldn't mind picking up #2.

A laugh out loud kind of book with a bit of mystery tied into it. Characters were well developed and I couldn't put the book down. A but disappointed that the mystery was not revealed at the end, but I guess that brings you back for more!

A great new series by Jill Sanders. The first book of "Wildflowers" This book gives the background on the 5 wildflowers and how they met and how they came to open this adult only camp. There is a suspense aspect I won't delve into as to avoid spoilers. There is of course a great romance story. I am already looking forward to book #2.

I received an advance copy from the publisher via NetGalley in exchange for my open, honest review.

The Wildflowers are a group of five girls that met at summer camp when they were young and have remained friends ever since. This first book in this series has mystery, suspense and action, secrets, romance, and wonderful characters. Can't wait to see what happens in the next book!

This is a perfect summer read. A reinvented Florida summer camp provides a beautiful background for a story about the Wildflowers, a group of women who became lifelong best friends when they met at summer camp as children. The five Wildflowers are resilient and this first book follows their first efforts to build a business they can all be proud of.

The first story focuses on Zoey. Zoey is the athlete, the tomboy whose difficult childhood has left her unable to trust. Adult Zoey is strong and full of grit and determination. As the oldest sister, she feels responsible for her sister and her mum. I love the way Zoey’s confidence improves as the camp starts to take shape and I love the way she makes Dylan work for her attention.

Dylan is a bit of a mystery. He and his brothers are a bit too good to be true and while we get hints about his identity and his reasons for wanting to work at a summer camp, we don’t know too much about Dylan until the end of the story. Like Zoey, I was slightly wary of Dylan, but I couldn’t help liking him. He’s gorgeous and charming and a worthy leading man.

I love the mix of humour and adventure in this story. The first campers are an interesting bunch and the Wildflowers’ responses to their unexpected activities kept making me laugh. A central mystery unfolds in this first book and I’m guessing it will continue over the series. I love the unlikely mix of women in the Wildflowers and I love the sense of enduring sisterhood they share. The romance between Zoey and Dylan is a relatively small part of the story and I really love the way this book introduces a wonderful mix of characters and relationships that I’m sure will be explored throughout the series. This is a perfect nostalgic summer holiday read and I can imagine it would be best enjoyed in a quiet place on a warm summer evening.

Summer Nights is the first in a new series of the "Wildflowers", a group of five girls who bonded at summer camp one year. Now, ten years later, they're closer than ever and end up purchasing/inheriting the summer camp, and turning it into a year-round camp for adults, mostly snow birds and retirees, It's a cute premise, and sounded very promising - especially when you throw in three sexy brothers who show up, with some secrets of their own, but under the pretense of wanting jobs.

It was a light, fun read for sure, but it just fell a little flat for me in some ways. I know its fiction but some of the plot points were a bit of a stretch, especially being that the group of girls are now about 20-22 years old, and somehow have hundreds of thousands of dollars to invest in this camp; including building new luxury "cabins", and hiring a celebrity chef. But when they start having suspicions about some of their employees, they keep saying they can't fire them because they'll never be able to find anyone else to replace them. I mean - it's a waitress job at a camp, can't be too hard to fill that position right? Especially when you're loaded enough to hire celebrity chefs.

Beyond that, it bothered me a little that Zoey and Dylan, the two main characters, were hiding things from each other, and seemed to somehow at the same time not trust each other, but yet fall in love? I just feel like their story and their relationship could have been developed deeper. Again - I know this is a romance book and fiction comes into play a lot here - but I just found it hard to connect with the characters or see what they saw in each other, beyond sexual attraction.

Also, sometimes things would be revealed or talked about I thought, but then a couple pages later they're talking about it again like it's the first time? Could just be because this was an early review copy and maybe those slightly discrepancies get caught in the final edit.

Overall, I was slightly disappointed but still enjoyed it for what it was - and I would keep reading the series, if only to see what ends up happening in the end!

Thank you NetGalley for my review copy in exchange for an honest review.

I recieved this book in exchange for an honest review. I read until 50% but I had to DNF it as it just didn't engage me like I had hoped it would. The characters didn't really endear them to me.

Summer Nights is the first installment of the Wildflowers Duet. There is a bit of a mystery, and as it was left unresolved, I believe the book is strongest as a tandem. Jill Sanders keeps readers on their toes in this novel, as the introductions of characters continues throughout the story. As in any series launch, Summer Nights seems a little out of balance. Though the characters are rich and interesting, it becomes confusing at times. There is a light romance in this novel, and I appreciated that story, though I might have liked a little more meat to it. The action is what really drives this novel, it's pacing is fast. I think it was good, light entertainment. I am interested enough in the mystery and the myriad characters to watch for the conclusion of the story. 3.5
I received my copy through NetGalley under no obligation.

Can't wait to read more books in this series. I loved this one! Such a fun.

Many thanks to NetGalley, the author, and the publisher for my ARC. All opinions are my own.

Summer Nights is the first book in the Wildflowers series by Jill Sanders. It's not a complete stand-alone novel since one part of the story will continue in the second book. The main characters will change in each book which is a plus. I wasn't a big fan of the book, but at the same time, it wasn't bad. The 3 stars are the perfect rating for the book since it's in the middle and that's where my feelings also were. I don't mind that the story will continue on the second book because I was planning on continuing the series anyway. The couples seem to have formed so we will just have to wait to see how they will get their happy endings and what happened to papa Costas. The couple of this book was interesting and I liked them together. My overall impression leans toward the good side, but like my rating, I will remain neutral on the recommendation.

This is book one in the Wildflower Series, Zoey and Dylan’s story.

It started as a friends for life type story in the first few chapters and then went to 3 handsome brothers arrive with secrets.

Lots of activity with all the guests, subplots with other characters and sadly a bit unbelievable with the ages of the 5 women and 3 men being able to pull this camp off.

The writing style wasn’t my favorite. For example they leave for the restaurant, sit at the table and the next thing is they’re back in the car or already walking up the steps to the house. The timelines fast forwarded a bit too much, within two-four sentences.

I would like to know what happens with the brothers and dad in the next book(s), so I’m hoping the writing style changes for the next book.

I received this ebook copy from the publisher and NetGalley for an honest review.

I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

I finished the book almost a week ago, but my lack of freetime has kept me from writting the review. I have been replaying the book in my head to get an idea about what I want to talk about, but nothing worth mentioning comes to mind. I guess I will keep this one short and to the point. Unless I start rambling like right now… Let’s do this!!

In this story we cross paths with Zoey, a young ex-athlete who has decided to open a business with her dear friends. All of them met in a Summer Camp for privileged girls, that sadly had to close. With more hope than sense, they transformed the place into a camp for adults. That means lots of activities and personnel, so nobody should be surprised when they hired without much questioning the three young men (good looking, muscles to feed an army… you know the type) who went looking for a job. Dylan is among those three brothers. They have a mission of their own, Will secrets get in the way of love? You will have to read the book to know the answer. Clue: this book is no different from most of the books in this genre.

First thing I must say: the first chapters of the book are beyond horrible. So boring. So much useless info about everybody’s hairstyle. I couldn’t handle the group of friends at first and the book was in serious danger of getting a serious kick in its backcover. But it gets better. Actually, it gets much, much better. When the three hunkies enter the picture, the book gets a new dimension sorely needed. We are presented a plot of secrets, hidden agendas and a soft mystery being revealed little by little. That is actually the spark that keeps the book warm. But it is also that same spark that leaves the reader wanting more and with a weird aftertaste. If it was meant as a cliffhanger, it was one poorly planned. I LOVE cliffhangers, but this ending is too lazy to be considered one.

The characters are mostly OK. Noone on my good or bad side. Zoey and Dylan fit perfectly in the story we are told. Their relationship is well written, with well defined phases as I like. There is even a bit of banter, which I will always point out as something very positive to keep a light mood. The main problem is that they don’t make me feel anything. I wasn’t invested in the romance, but there is nothing wrong with it. It just lacks spice or something to make it relevant. The extended cast of the book doesn’t have too big a role to form an opinion, but I will say I don’t like that so many future books have already been started. I hope I’m not cheated from the good parts in a romance…

But the big elephant in the room during the whole book is the “What?” factor. And I don’t mean the revelation of exciting secrets. It is the whole “Let’s build a camp for adults with our zero knowledge of accounting, our meager finances and null experience“. The oldest girl in the book is 21 or 22. No more. The five of them get together and create the camp with tons of activities, famous chefs and rather big staff… while at the same time we are told they don’t have much money. I couldn’t shake how ridiculous everything sounded. I still don’t know how they are paying all of that and still get profit. As a reader I’m used to the make-believes, but I have limits…

And that is not the only time I had to deal with that limit. Is Dylan for real? I mean, he is also about 22 and 23 but it seems he has been alive for 40 or so. The author has made the guy (and his brothers) a too experienced person for his age. I’m not sure you can cramp so much journey into such young man. The cherry on top is the time when he mentions to Zoey his former longterm relationships. Yes, with an S. So, in between a crazy life where he can travel the world and also have many hours as a pilot, he was capable of enjoying several relationships that lasted long enough to be considered longterm… I guess he must be counting the time he shared a pacifier with the cute little girl in the park when he was 18-months-old, the time he kissed in the cheek the girl from his school when he was 5-years-old or even the time in highschool when he had a crush on the popular girl, but never had the courage to say something. Otherwise I do not understand how can he talk about longterm relationshipS.

It’s a nice book, but it is hindred by the fact that the characters are too young. Besides, I don’t understand why the author picked that age and then worked with them as if they were much older. It’s a bit off-puting. I know I have whined too much about that, but the plot is very enjoyable and I will read the next ones when they are available.
