The Summer We Started

Sweetwater Cove Book 1

Baseball player Beau Rivers has spent every summer of his life coming home to Sweetwater Cove.

And every summer, he falls a little more in love with his best friend.

Saylor Anderson has been his favorite person since they were kids building sandcastles on the beach and sneaking ice cream before dinner. She's the girl who knows all his secrets, the one person who has always felt like home, and the only woman Beau has never been able to forget.

The problem?

Saylor has no idea.

When Beau returns to Sweetwater Cove for another summer, he plans to enjoy the beach days, bonfires, and lazy nights with the people he loves most. But everything changes when he discovers Saylor might be leaving town for her dream teaching job on the other side of the country.

Suddenly, the future he's always taken for granted is slipping through his fingers.

As the summer unfolds, old feelings become impossible to ignore. Between late-night talks, stolen moments, and the growing realization that their friendship has become something much more, Beau and Saylor are forced to confront the one question they've avoided for years:

What happens when the person you've always loved is finally within reach... just as they're about to leave?

Set in the charming beach town of Sweetwater Cove, The Summer We Started is a heartwarming friends-to-lovers romance filled with small-town charm, unforgettable summer nights, and a love story years in the making.
