Summer Ellowyn is done with New York-the relentless deadlines, the soulless office, and her life there that just seems to go nowhere. So, she does what any reasonable woman in crisis would do: she packs up and heads to her grandmother's old beachside cabin in California, "Summer Haven's," to start fresh. There's just one small problem... it's no longer hers.
Enter Nathaniel August-serious, infuriatingly handsome, and the very new owner of Summer's beloved retreat. He's planning to renovate and flip the place, while she's determined to reclaim the only home that's ever truly felt like hers. The solution? A reluctant summer truce-she'll help him restore the cabin, and in return, he won't kick her out immediately.
But as long nights by the beach turn into something more, Summer starts to wonder: is she rebuilding a house, or a whole new kind of future... one that just might include Nathaniel?
A sun-soaked, slow-burn romance filled with witty banter, undeniable chemistry, and a summer neither of them will ever forget. 🌊☀️💕

But when Blake discovers that Waverly has been hiding the rather embarrassing secret that she can't swim, he does the unthinkable: He offers to teach her.
