One of Amazon's Best Romances of June ∙ A Real Simple Must-Read of Summer 2023 ∙ A Book Riot Best Romance Book of Summer 2023 ∙ A Buzzfeed Romance Book To Look Out For In 2023 ∙ A Paste Magazine Most Anticipated Contemporary Romance Book of 2023
When a divorced woman attends a sleepaway camp for adults, she reconnects with a man from her past—only to fall head over heels for his sister instead.
Garland Moore used to believe in magic, the power of optimism, and signs from the universe. Then her husband surprised her with divorce papers over Valentine's Day dinner. Now Garland isn’t sure what to believe anymore, except that she’s clearly never meant to love again. When new friends invite her to spend a week at their reopened sleepaway camp, she and her sister decide it’s an opportunity to enjoy the kind of summer getaway they never had as kids. If Garland still believed in signs, this would sure seem like one. Summer camp is a chance to let go of her past and start fresh.
Nestled into the picturesque Blue Ridge Mountains, Camp Carl Cove provides the exact escape Garland always dreamed of, until she runs into Mason—the man she had a premonition about after one brief meeting years ago. No matter how she tries to run, the universe appears determined to bring love back into Garland’s life. She even ends up rooming with Mason’s sister Stevie, a vibrant former park ranger who is as charming as she is competitive. The more time Garland spends with Stevie, the more the signs confuse her. The stars are aligning in a way Garland never could have predicted.
Amid camp tournaments and moonlit dances, Garland continues to be pulled toward the beautiful blonde outdoorswoman who makes her laugh and swoon. Summer camp doesn’t last forever, but if Garland can learn to trust her heart, the love she finds there just might.

Story
Everyone around Iris Kelly is in love. Her best friends are all coupled up, her siblings have partners that are perfect for them, and her parents are still blissfully married. And she’s happy for all of them, truly. Iris doesn’t want any of that—dating, love, romance. She’ll stick to her commitment-free hookups, thanks very much, except no one in her life will just let her be. Everyone wants to see her settled down, but she holds firmly to her no dating rule. There’s only one problem—Iris is a romance author facing an imminent deadline for her second book, and she’s completely out of ideas.

Story
Meg Doyle did not intend to return home from college with a suitcase and nowhere else to go. Ideally, she would have rolled up to her tiny home town in a limousine and jumped out wearing a designer tuxedo. She would have shaken a few hands, signed a few autographs, and maybe kissed a few girls before riding off into the sunset of her glorious post-grad future in set design. Instead, she's stuck spending the summer in her childhood bedroom, trawling the internet for job listings after a last minute internship cancellation in Europe.

“Shimmering with sun-soaked magic, That Summer Feeling has everything I love about a summer romance—swoons, humor, and that irrepressible hope that a great love is not only possible, but inevitable.”—Ashley Herring Blake, USA Today bestselling author of Astrid Parker Doesn’t Fail
"A celebratory ray of sunshine... I loved this world of big accomplishments, found family, and dizzyingly fierce love."—Amy Spalding, author of For Her Consideration
"At times achingly sweet, and at others delightfully steamy, this friends-to-lovers journey had me hooked from the first page. Summer camp has never been this sexy."—Erin La Rosa, author of For Butter or Worse

After leaving the city life behind to escape my loveless marriage, I moved to small-town Havenbarrow for a fresh start. What I didn’t expect was to find myself drawn to the town’s black sheep. They called him troubled, cold, a man with a dark past. What everyone seemed to miss about Jax was the splashes of light in his eyes, the random acts of kindness he performed when no one was watching, and the way he made me smile and laugh.

Seventeen-year-old cynic Saoirse Clarke isn't looking for a relationship. But when she meets mischievous Ruby, that rule goes right out the window. Sort of.

It would be the perfect plan, if they weren’t forgetting one thing about the Falling in Love Montage: when it's over, the characters have fallen in love...for real.

Not to mention she really needs to focus her energy on escaping her emotionally-abusive-but-that’s-Hollywood talent manager boss and actually get working under a real director of photography anyway.

Fun, lighthearted summer romance
wanted to like this a little more than I did, but I enjoyed it. It was a little bit too insta love and occasionally corny for my personal tastes. These women know each other for 6 days. I just… will never believe in someone falling In Love properly in that amount of time. I just won’t. Sure, bonding in short bursts absolutely happens. It happened to me while I studied abroad in college, we latched onto each other and our friendships grew faster than they might have otherwise, but… IN LOVE, to the point of PUBLIC DECLARATIONS, my old nemesis, had me side/eyeing hard.
That said, I enjoyed the characters, and watching Garland come into her herself was nice. The lighthearted summer camp story was fun and the narrator was wonderful.

This gives me hope
“This was the life I was always meant to live. I just didn’t know it.” so damn accurate. You have no idea what life has in store for you. What a beautiful unfolding friendship and love. Discovering yourself in the life you were meant to live. Discovering who you really are and not living up to anyone else’s expectations,
And of course the spicy scenes were perfection

Community Camp
Sisters Garland and Dara Moore are on the way to adult summer camp. Twin brothers who rode with Garland, a ride share driver, had bought a camp and invited them. When she meets Mason, his brothers, and Stevie, her roommate she remembers a vision of Mason. But the more time spent with Stevie the more she grows attached to her. A wonderful summer camp story.

I liked it but...
I like the story and it made the idea of a summer camp for adults seem fun, but I also didn't like it. It just seems drawn out and overly expressed in emotions and thoughts and the main character seems forcefully quirky, if that makes sense. I both liked the story and didn't like it. I was invested in the storyline but after a while I was listening to it at 2x speed so I could get through it faster.

This was cute and I liked it.
I like that Garland was 32 years old and just discovering that she was Queer. Everyone doesn't know it right away and the concept that all Queers figure it out by high school or college is not true. There are some of us that are still learning new things about ourselves every day, every week, every month, every year. I enjoyed her story of discovery.

Overall it was decent
I enjoyed the story and the characters, although ironically the MC was probably my least favorite of them. Much of the inner monologueing by the MC felt very long winded and redundant, especially towards the end. There was a lack of external obstacles which made the climax feel less rewarding. A singular mystical element felt very out of place and I feel weakened the story. I almost left it behind in my DNF pile a couple times but was invested enough I eventually kept coming back until I finished it.
