I love how Piper spends most of the book “trying to figure out what to do when no one is watching and wondering if maybe that’s the stuff that actually matters.” This book really highlights the phoniness of social media and the importance of love and family. Some themes present in It Happened One Summer include beauty of simplicity, change versus tradition, death, facing reality, family, growing up, love and heartbreak, identity, empowerment, inner and outer strength, isolation and loneliness, materialism and wealth, fame, perseverance, and beauty.
meeting a rugged and stubborn fisherman from a small town. But I think that best way to characterise It Happened One Summer is opposites attract with a spoiled and chic partier from L.A. This book could be characterised as an “enemies to lovers” trope as Piper and Brendan are total opposites that start off on the wrong foot. Readers of Talia Hibbert, Alexandria Bellefleur, and Sally Thorne are also sure to love It Happened One Summer.
It Happened One Summer is a slow burn contemporary romance with quite a few spicy scenes! The vibe of this book reminded me a lot of one of my favourite shows, Schitt’s Creek the character illustrations on the cover of the book even look like Alexis and Mutt! I would also recommend this book to fans of Sweet Home Alabama and Virgin River. or will the small fishing town (and the handsome local sea captain) capture her heart? Will Piper return to her glamorous life in L.A. The longer Piper stays in Westport, the more she reconnects to her past.
But everywhere she turns, she runs into Brendan-the two are polar opposites but they have an undeniable infatuation with each other. Determined to prove the naysayers wrong (and maybe earn an early ticket home), Piper gets to work renovating and reopening the bar. When Piper, along with her sister Hannah who insists on coming, arrive, they discover that the bar, which has been taken over by local fishermen and a rude sea captain named Brendan, is in a state of disrepair. Piper Bellinger is a spoiled social media influencer who has been feeling like, “I can be in a room full of people that I know and still not feel like I belong.” After an out-of-control party lands Piper in jail, Piper’s stepfather sentences Piper to run her late father’s bar in a small beach town for three months.
