Dear Reader,
Now that you’ve read my two summer books—The Summer Getaway and The Boardwalk Bookshop—I have some recommendations for stories to keep those summer vibes going strong. These are books that I think you will love, from gifted storytellers, authors you can trust with your hearts.
The Bodyguard by Katherine Center – July 19
This is a classic rom-com with one of the funniest scenes I’ve read in a long time. The story is as happy as the adorable cover!
