He can't take it back, but after ten years he's finally facing what he said...

Dalton "Tripp" Sutherland knows he screwed up ten years ago, and it cost him the best friend he ever had. Sure, he has the picture-perfect life as the Indigo Royal Resort playboy, but sailing, sand, and sun are no replacements for the incomparable Zara Wellington. And deep down, Tripp is still haunted by the pain he caused her.

Beauty blogger and boss babe Zara Wellington lives her life on the go. Traveling the world, trying new spas, and chasing her journalistic dreams keeps her busier than she ever imagined. But her life-long insecurities are never far behind. She's perfected the art of flying solo, but she has her fair share of baggage.

When Zara's next project lands her at the Indigo Royal Resort to review the brand new Cherish Spa, she comes face-to-face with Tripp for the first time since that night. Can he undo the damage from their past, or will Zara's pain cause these old friends to go their separate ways once and for all?

What I Like About You is a standalone second-chance contemporary romance. Enjoy it on its own, or as part of the series, with no cheating and a guaranteed HEA!

Steamy Second Chance Romance!
4 out of 5 stars
Steamy Second Chance Romance!
What I like About You by Claire Hastings is the perfect childhood best friend, second chance romance, island escape where spa treatments and sandy beaches abound. As the 3rd book in the Indigo Royal Resort series there are lots of fun interactions with the previous couples and characters but this one can be read as a true standalone if you haven’t read the previous two books.I devoured this book quickly in part because Zara was such a relatable character (she’s a size 16), she owns her own business and she’s fiercely independent while also being vulnerable and cautious. Dalton is the perfect island playboy who is living his best life with his chosen family until Zara shows up and turns everything on its side.There were some deep cuts that had me in tears, some ridiculous laugh out loud moments, & a very satisfying HEA. Their chemistry is on fire in this steamy romance and the island and their friends add so much to their story.

    “What I Like About You” is the third book in the Indigo Royal Resort series by Claire Hastings, and it’s terrific. You don’t have to have read the first two books in the series to enjoy this one, although you really should check them out as well. The leading man in this book, Dalton, appears as an important secondary character in both prior books about the Resort, where he works as First Mate on the charter boats. He’s a good-natured guy and supportive friend in those stories, and there is clearly a side to him that he keeps intensely private. I was looking forward to his story, and it surpassed all expectations.

    Zara was Dalton’s absolute best friend from childhood … right up to senior prom, when he uttered despicable words that destroyed their friendship and shattered her heart. She grew up accustomed to cruel jibes and nasty comments about her plus-sized figure. Through sheer force of will and determination, and the support of her dearest friend from college, Zara has become a successful beauty blogger. Despite the emotional pain heaped upon her, she is still a sweet and kind person. When she arrives at the Resort as a VIP guest to visit and revue the new spa there, she and Dalton are shocked to see one another. They become immersed in a week that could potentially heal their rift and chart a new course for them, or could permanently reinforce the divide.

    I don’t want to give away any spoilers, but it’s hard because this is such a great story. We learn about a lot of Zara’s triumphs, and can feel the pain of her struggle with accepting the fact that Dalton truly sees her as beautiful and desirable. Dalton’s character development is even more dramatic, I think. His personal family history is heartbreaking, his remorse about hurting Zara is painfully sincere, and the life-altering changes with which he must contend are dramatic. I couldn’t put this book down because it pulled me into the story so completely. The excellent secondary characters provide just enough counterpoint and humor to keep the more serious emotions from becoming overwhelming. Great book, excellent series, and I already pre-ordered the next one!

    I discovered this author when I read Checking It Twice in The Naughty List series. From there I read the Atlanta Rising series which I loved. Because I met Tripp and Zara in that series I wanted to learn more and really enjoyed books 2&3 of this series. I skipped book 1 of this series(not sure why) but I don’t feel like I missed too much.
    You can read the series in any order but it was interesting to go back to the beginning when you first meet Felicity in Out of Bounds. She was less than pleasant in this book but you have the future story to really know why.

    Can’t Fight this Feeling introduced us to Dalton - resort playboy with a heart of gold and a knack for making sure true love wins. In Caught Up in You we continued watching him on the sidelines as he yet again came through with some solid romance advice and a shoulder to cry on. FINALLY, it was his turn in What I Like About You. And the man did not disappoint. In other words - Let’s Hear it for the Boy!

    Is he a fumbling idiot when he crosses path with his childhood best friend? Absolutely. He goes from all swagger to one epic disaster after another but his swoon worthy moves are hard to resist.

    Zara doesn’t stand a chance. As soon as she sees Tripp (aka Dalton), she goes from fierce lady boss to second guessing herself and her feelings for Dalton. The two together are swoony, steamy magic and the perfect addition to the IRR series.

    What I Like About You takes you back to paradise. Join Dalton and Zara in their love story and see cameos from Kyle, Drea, Lee, Cullen and everyone’s favorite uncles. Is this love? Absolutely...

    4.0 out of 5 stars A fun and entertaining, sweet and steamy series end. Looking forward to what comes next!
    Reviewed in the United States on January 25, 2021
    What I Like About You (Indigo Royal Resort #3) by Claire Hastings is a contemporary, friends to lovers, second chance romance told in the third person. Each book in this series can be read as a standalone, so it's unnecessary to read the others first. However, doing so will bring maximum enjoyment as familiar characters reappear throughout the series.

    Dalton "Tripp" Southerland III and Zara Wellington were childhood best friends who secretly had feelings for each other. Growing up, Tripp and Zara were inseparable until he humiliated her on prom night. After that, she ignored his calls, and went away to a different college than they had planned. Ten years have passed, and they come face-to-face for the first time in St. Thomas, Virgin Islands. Zara runs a popular spa blog and is spending a week with her best friend, Antwan, checking out Cherish Spa at the Indigo Royal Resort. Dalton works as first mate on a boat at the resort. He wants Zara back in his life, and he's determined to earn her forgiveness and make up for the past. Can they start over and become more than friends? Or is it too little too late? Read the book to find out.

    I really enjoyed Dalton and Zara's story! Dalton has been my favorite character since book one, so I expected this to be my favorite book in the series - and it was until a certain point. Then it wasn't. Book two, Caught Up in You, still holds that spot, followed by book one, Can't Fight This Feeling. I'll do my best to explain why without spoiling anything.

    From the beginning, I loved both characters. Zara was smart, hardworking, and very relatable. I thought she was great! Dalton was already my favorite of the series and still is. Both characters has issues and made mistakes. Dalton's sins were in the past, and Zara's were in the present. What Dalton did was unthinkable, but he was remorseful and redeemed himself. Zara never did. And that's the crux of it.

    Insecurity doesn't excuse bad behavior, and when a character behaves as badly as Zara did, I expect some self-awareness and growth, or at the very least some remorse and an apology. But none of that ever happened. Zara never took responsibility for her actions or said she was sorry - not even after Dalton's grand gesture, which would have been the perfect moment for her to give a little too. In the end, Zara basically just got her way, and it left me with an icky feeling. Instead of feeling like they belonged together and would have a happy future... I felt like Zara didn't deserve Dalton, that he could do better, and that unless she changed, they'd have a rocky future with Zara always insisting on having her way, and Dalton always compromising or giving in.

    Had Zara simply owned up to her mistakes, it would have redeemed her, making the ending much more satisfying, and resulting in a higher rating. That being said, a 4-star rating is nothing to sneeze at. The entire Indigo Royal Resort series is fantastic, and I highly recommend it. What I Like About You was sweet and steamy with a good dose of emotion and humor. I'm looking forward to the spin-off series! And who knows? Maybe I'll even warm up to Zara again.

    What a charming, romantic story. I loved Dalton from book one of the Indigo Royal Resort trilogy,with his caring, support and and helpful advice for high s friends. I always wondered what his background and story was, especially after his sister's brief appearance in book two.

    Zara was a wonderful character who I could well relate to, being in the bigger side myself. I also loved her best friend and business partner, Antwan.

    This was a lovely story of second, (or third), chances, and the things we do and say when we are going and foolish. Loved it!

    Spanish & English Opinion :: 4🍭🍭🍭🍭

    ESP ::

    Este libro es parte de una serie, pero ha sido el primero que leo. Me ha encantado. Quiero ir a ese resort con nombres de canciones que me encantan y con ese crew de amigos que quiero conocer.

    Tripp se redime. Su personalidad de heredero viviendo en la playa dicta sus acciones hasta que Zara vuelve a su vida.
    Zara es una heroína increíble. Me encanta conocer sus sentimientos, inseguridades, sueños. Es como si escucháramos a una amiga.

    Su relación es encantadora. Él hace los grandes gestos y ella comienza a creer en ser merecedora de un amor de cuento. El crew de amigos es increíble y los nuevos personajes también.

    ¡Me urge leer a Felicity!

    ENG ::

    This book is part of a series, but it was the first one I read and was able to understand the story. I simply loved it! I wanna go to this Resort that has amazing song names all over it and a crew that involves a group of friends that I wish were mine.

    Tripp redeems himself with the love of his life. His “heir living on a beach” attitude shows how he acts through life until Zara comes back to him. He grovels (which I love) and tries to convince her of her worth and amazingness.

    Zara is lovely. I enjoy reading about her job, but also her feelings and insecurities. It’s like listening to a friend. Their relationship is sweet and special and the Indigo Royal crew is the best. Also, the new characters and the story we will have next... Felicity! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

    This was the best book in this series!!! Less drama. I loved the main characters. Zara had her moments, but I could understand why most times. Dalton was a favorite for me, because he was the glue in the group. Great characters throughout the books. Surprisingly no babies.
    Loved this book!!!
