Publisher Description
From New
York Times bestselling author Jill Shalvis
comes a friends-to-frenemies-to-lovers story… Add in a few secrets. Shake.
Stir. Then read on a lazy summer day at the beach…
Brynn Turner desperately wishes she had it together, but her personal life is
like a ping-pong match that’s left her scared and hurt after so many
attempts to get it right. In search of a place to lick her wounds and get a
fresh start, she heads back home to Wildstone.
And then there’s Kinsey Davis, who after battling serious
health issues her entire twenty-nine years of life, is tired of hoping for . .
. well, anything. She's fierce, tough, and she’s keeping more than one bombshell
of a secret from Brynn -- her long-time frenemy.
But then Brynn runs into Kinsey's best friend, Eli,
renewing her childhood crush. The good news: he’s still easy-going and funny
and sexy as hell. The bad news: when he gets her to agree to a summer-time deal
to trust him to do right by her, no matter what, she never dreams it’ll result
in finding a piece of herself she didn’t even know was missing. She could have real
connections, possibly love, and a future—if she can only learn
to let go of the past.
As
the long days of summer wind down, the three of them must discover if
forgiveness is enough to grasp the unconditional love that’s right in front of
them.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
A pair of guarded half-sisters learn to open up in this sweet, summery romance from Shalvis (Almost Just Friends). After 29-year-old Brynn Turner's boyfriend breaks her heart and robs her blind to boot, she returns home to her loving but smothering moms in Wildstone, Calif., to recover. When a panic attack sends Brynn to the ER, she runs into Eli Thomas, her summer camp crush and first kiss, who's accompanying his best friend and housemate (and Brynn's teenage nemesis), Kinsey Davis, for a kidney transplant that falls through. As it happens, Kinsey recently discovered she and Brynn are half-sisters while searching for possible kidney donors, but she refuses to tell Brynn. Hoping to bring the sisters together, Eli offers Brynn a room in their beach house and soon falls for her. Meanwhile, single dad Deck Scott, Kinsey's dialysis nurse and casual hookup, works to convince Kinsey that she's more than just "a walking expiration date." Readers will find it easy to root for Shalvis's stubborn, vulnerable heroines to recognize both the decency and compassion of the sexy men who love them and their own worthiness to be loved. This heartfelt tale is thoroughly satisfying.
