Review Card & Book Review- Hot To Go By Kristen Bailey

The vacation ended. The heat didn’t…

Meet Suzie Callaghan: French teacher, newly single, newly heartbroken. After an awful break-up, she heads to Mallorca for a much-needed holiday with her cousins, expecting sun, sangria, and siestas.

She isn’t expecting to fall in love – especially not with the handsome Spaniard who rescues her when she gets separated from her group during an ill-judged midnight skinny dip.

But what starts as a steamy holiday romance built on white lies and mistaken identities turns into something more complicated when “Carlos” shows up at the school she works at. 

Except his name isn’t Carlos. It’s Charlie Carter, and he’s the new Spanish teacher.

Now they’re stuck in department meetings pretending they haven’t seen each other naked, both feeling thoroughly duped, both wondering if that hot holiday fling can exist in real life? But when they’re thrown together again on a school trip to Seville, the heat between them proves impossible to resist.

About The Author

My Review

Suzie, fresh off a breakup, escapes to Mallorca with her cousins in search of sun, sangria, and absolutely no strings attached. What she doesn’t expect is to be rescued—literally—by a devastatingly handsome Spaniard during a late-night mishap. Their chemistry is instant, electric, and unforgettable. But just when she thinks she’s left “Carlos” behind on the beach, reality smacks her in the face: he’s not a holiday mirage—he’s Charlie, the new Spanish teacher at her school. What elevates the story is its blend of emotional honesty and comedic timing. Suzie is smart, messy, and relatable, while Charlie is more than just the smoldering beach savior—he’s thoughtful, sincere, and totally swoon-worthy.

Their reunion in Seville during a school trip is peak romantic comedy, brimming with sunshine, suppressed longing, and the kind of chemistry that makes readers giddy. Through it all, Bailey keeps the tone light and fun without skimming over Suzie’s emotional growth, allowing the romance to deepen beyond the holiday heat.

Overall, it is a feel-good, sexy romp with heart, humor, and just the right dose of chaos. Unputdownable and utterly delightful.
