Perfect to read during the summer because it takes place in Italy, has fun adventures, and is coming of age. And not to mention the sweet romance!
Love & Gelato - Welch, Jenna Evans: Books
Beautiful romance (enemies to lovers…!), fun adventures, and also some angst that keeps you on your toes.
Happy Place by Emily Henry
This is very summery as well. It takes place in Hawaii, is enemies to lovers, and it’s just overall a good book to pair with some sunscreen and a beach towel. And the romance is a bonus too.
The Unhoneymooners

Summer camp, music, and friendships, what’s not to love? This book was really good, and it actually made me tear up a bit. The romance is adorable and it also explores friendships and sibling relationships, which was great.

Love & Luck (Love & Gelato, #2) by Jenna Evans Welch
