A NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER. From New York Times bestselling author Penelope Ward, comes a new standalone novel.
What do you do when a sexy, older man moves into your family's summer rental?
Well, apparently, you make a fool of yourself--over and over. Things didn't exactly get off on the right foot with Noah Cavallari. Our first encounter was embarrassing, to say the least.
But despite that, I found myself waking up every day with a newfound energy. Nothing exciting ever happened on the lake--not until Noah moved into the small boathouse on our property. He'd booked it for the entire summer...and I was still trying to figure out why.
When my mother became ill, I inherited the responsibility of making sure our guests were well taken care of. I should have been finishing up college. Instead, I was living my best life...as a maid.
Dark, handsome, and mysterious, everything about Noah screamed forbidden.
I knew he was just passing through town for the summer.
I knew he was probably a little old for me.
Yet, I was drawn to him.
Not to mention, he tried to save my life when he mistakenly thought I was drowning.
I wanted him and made no secret of it.
His own attempts to warn me away soon gave way to late-night moonlight chats by the lake. We were slowly easing into a friendship that was gearing up to explode into something I might not recover from.
Because he's leaving at the end of the summer.
And I have no idea what I'll do when August ends.

It was very good. I think it's not perfect, but I don't know which part I would have changed. Everything was at it's place and everything went at its pace.Noah and Heather had a comical start. She was dancing in the lake, and he thought she was drowning. Heather is a 20-year-old owner of the property where he chooses to spend his summer, June to August. Noah is a 34 photographer who needed to detach himself from life.And that's all I will say about them, even if it's not so simple.I loved how the book talked about mental illness, how the characters understood depression and how it was present in their life.Heater life was kind of shit. She had a sister who killed herself. Her mother was depressed. Her father was not in the picture. She had so much baggage upon her, working two jobs to take care of her mother.But she met Noah, and even if he wanted nothing to do with her (because he told her when she shamelessly told him he was hot), he couldn't stay away.And Noah under....
