Summer fling or the real thing?

My mom's last gift came with two surprises: an unexpected inheritance from the father I never knew, and one unforgettable summer in Aspen Lake. Her only request? Complete the bucket list she left for me. Simple enough-until I saw that item written in bold: HAVE A SUMMER FLING.

I've never been the type to fall into a fling, but Mom insisted it would be a magical, once-in-a-lifetime experience. Determined not to let her down, I set out to find my perfect Mr. Summer. Instead, I have a cringeworthy not-so-meet-cute with Dr. Logan Summers-my devastatingly handsome new neighbor with a guarded heart and a painful past.

Despite our rocky start, the relationship between Logan and me blooms into an unexpected friendship filled with laughter, adventure, and undeniable sparks. But as our connection grows and our friendship becomes something deeper, I find myself wondering-what if I want more than just a fling? Can the magic of summer love stay forever?

USA Today bestselling author Jennifer Peel delivers a swoony, heartfelt story of healing, love, and the unforgettable enchantment of a summer romance.
