Summer Reading

In New York Times bestselling author Jenn McKinlay's new romantic comedy, sparks fly between a swoon-worthy bookworm and a lady who would rather do anything except read, leading to one sizzling summer romance.

Samantha Gale had planned to use her summer at her family's small cottage on Martha's Vineyard to further her culinary profession. Instead, she was assigned to look after Tyler, her half-brother. The dyslexic teenager is spending his summer participating in a robotics competition at the local library, which is Sam's least favorite location. The hot-reader guy whose book she unintentionally trashed on the ferry voyage to the island turns out to be the library's interim director because the universe despises her.

Bennett Reynolds has never known who his father is, so he is on a mission to find him. He has accepted the temporary position on the island in order to conduct research on the summer his mother spent there prior to becoming pregnant. Ben tells himself that he isn't ready for a relationship at this time. But Sam can't stop thinking about her as soon as he drops his book into the sea.

When Ben encourages Sam to write the cookbook she's always wanted to and she throws herself into helping him locate his father, an undeniable attraction develops, and soon they realize their summer romance may turn into a happily ever after.
