Three Summers is a romantic historical novel set in Puglia, Italy in the 1950’s/1960’s. The cover and description of the book immediately caught my attention!
Three Summers by Karen Swan

In a Jam a romance novel set in Friendship, Rhode Island, with a small town romance and slow burn trope. Both the setting and tropes were very appealing to me, which is why I want to read this one!

A contemporary romance novel with a fake dating/marriage trope. The trope is what really captivated me, as I always find fake dating/marriage tropes to be very entertaining!
The Paradise Problem by Christina Lauren

A romance novel with a childhood friends to lovers trope. I have already started this book and love it so far! I kept seeing it everywhere and the childhood friends to lovers trope was appealing, so obviously I had to read it!
Every Summer After by Carley Fortune

A contemporary romance novel set on the island of Nantucket. This was a must read for me, primarily because it’s based in Nantucket (another place I really want to visit)!

This book is set on the Island of Nantucket with a mix of romance, drama, and a little mystery. This book screams beach read to me, and honestly, all of Elin Hilderbrand’s books seem like the type of books I would gravitate toward.
