Wow, I just met my new book boyfriend. Hello Brendan! I love It Happened One Summer by Tessa Bailey so much! This romance hooks the readers instantly, which is ironic since the premises mixes Schitt’s Creek and the Deadliest Catch. Piper is the wealthy influencer who gets caught breaking into an affluent hotel and is banished by her stepfather to Westport, Washington. Her sister Hannah goes with her for support, and they both discover their family history there since their biological father was a well-known fishing hero who passed away. Brendan is the sexy ship caption who doesn’t think Piper will last a week in Westport. Brendan doesn’t know how quickly Piper will pull him into her undercurrent, of her charm and vibrant personality. Piper is surprised to discover herself and her true desires. This book was full of steam, heart, humor, and romance. I was here for every minute! I’m a new fangirl of Tessa Bailey’s, and now she’s my newest auto-buy author! Do yourself a favor and run to get your hands on this book. It’s one of my favorite romances of 2021.

Thank you, Avon, Harper Audio, and NetGalley, for my gifted copy in exchange for my honest review.
