Publisher Description
The series that readers are calling, "touching, funny, sweet and gut-wrenching all mixed together." By USA Today Bestselling Author, Elena Aitken!
She can’t get over the past. He's falling for a lie. Is their love strong enough to survive the truth?
With a hot new look, and an even hotter new social media career, Gwen is barely recognizable from the overweight, awkward girl she’d been the last time she spent a summer in the resort town of Cedar Springs. And that’s exactly what she’s counting on. Gwen knew there was a chance she’d run into the boy who broke her heart all those years ago, but she wasn’t prepared for the man he’d become—or the fact that he doesn’t remember her at all.
It’s been ten years since Ian McCormick has been back in town and he’s more than ready to put his family drama behind him, start a new business and maybe even have a little fun. And what better way to enjoy summer at the lake than with the gorgeous brunette he can’t stop thinking about?
It was just supposed to be a fun little experiment for her followers. A test to see if looks really do matter. Would Ian be interested the new and improved version of her after all these years?
It was perfect.
At least until all the feelings she thought were long dead, come rushing back. And once the plan is in motion, she can’t back out. With their hearts on the line, can Gwen continue to play a game that could devastate them both and destroy the only real chance at love she’s ever had?
Customer Reviews
A good addition to the series
I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review. I enjoyed this book very much, but feel that it could have been expanded a little. Ian's half-sister Chelsea is sent to stay with him for the summer, Ian has agreed that she can come, and finds a job for her waitressing at the Grizzly Paw, and I know this is not her story but it would have been interesting to learn a little bit more about her.
Ian comes across as a lovely man, he is very hard working, as he was pretty much forced to be when his father left them for his other family, leaving his mother with little support and four sons to bring up. His hard work has made him quite wealthy, and he comes back to Cedar Springs and opens up the family cabin, where they had spent long, happy summers when he was a boy. The town has started to pick up, with new businesses starting; and he decides to buy the marina, which has long been run down, spruce it up and make a thriving business of it.
He meets Gwen briefly when he picks Chelsea up from the bus station. He does not recognise her as Gigi, the fat girl who had been a friend when they were younger, but she recognises him. Of course they meet again, and he remains unaware that he broke her heart when she was eighteen. There are several hiccups in their relationship, before we get to a happy ending, but angst is something that Elena writes rather well
A good read for a lazy day.
