It Happened One Summer
Synopsis
Love Always Comes with a Catch
IT HAPPENED ONE SUMMER - The #1 BookTok sensation comes to life
Piper Bellinger has 30 million followers. Brand deals worth millions. And LA's hottest parties on her phone. She's social media royalty—until one viral disaster destroys everything. Jail time. Dropped sponsors. A mother ready to cut her off completely.
The ultimatum? Fix up a dive bar in buttf*ck nowhere. Make it profitable. Or lose everything. Plot twist: The bar belonged to the father she barely remembers. The salt of the earth town folk still worship him, but they think she’s trash.
Enter Brendan Taggart. Rugged fisherman. Stupidly broad shoulders. Zero patience for influencers. He's everything Piper's never wanted—and can't stop thinking about. He fixes her ceiling leak while she's in pyjamas. Teaches her to steer his boat while standing way too close. Makes sushi with hands that know exactly what they're doing.
Piper's follower count is haemorrhaging, but her pulse is racing every time Brendan's around. He thinks she's shallow. She thinks he's stubborn. They're both right.
They're both wrong. And the sexual tension could power the entire Eastern seaboard. But when Brendan's dangerous job threatens everything, Piper has to choose: her carefully curated life or the messy, real love she never saw coming.
