Can a summer of love make up for a lifetime of secrets?

Wedding fever has taken over Harmony Harbor this summer, and the local matchmakers have set their sights on Theia Lawson, a former navy pilot who's in town for a stay at Greystone Manor. And while Theia's got her reasons to put this small town behind her as fast as she can, there's a certain tall, dark, and irresistible man that she can't seem to get off her mind.
Firefighter Marco DiRossi wants to beat the matchmakers at their own game so he conspires with Theia to pretend they've already fallen in love. It's only for the summer. What could go wrong? Yet as the beach season draws to a close, Marco and Theia find their pretend relationship has led to very real attraction. But when a secret from the past is revealed, jeopardizing everything they hold dear, can this unlikely couple find their way to a happily-ever-after?

Thiea is a pilot who is in town with an agenda. It's right in the middle of wedding season and it seems like everyone is trying to be a matchmaker. Marco is a town local and a fighter and he's looking to get everyone off his back and they make an agreement to look like they are dating so no one bothers them. Problem is its hard to keep their hearts out of the matter.

This was a pretty good book. I did like it but my attention kept straying. There was a lot going on that my mind had a bit of a time following along. I did find plenty of entertaining moments in the book and I loved watching the connection. Then there's plenty of drama going on between the clash of two families, secrets and a ghost. There's plenty to keep a reader hooked. Also juts gonna point out this wasn't much of a summer read so if your looking for a book that screams summer (not just by cover) then this isn't it. But if you like a good contemporary then you'll want to pick up this book.
