Plotting Summer

Capri Collins has spent years hiding a huge secret. Under the pen name Sunny Palmer, she writes bestselling romance novels, and her very first book was a fictionalized love story about her and her childhood crush, Tristan Palmer, using his last name for her pseudonym. Now she’s back on Sunset Harbor, a fictional island off the coast of Florida, for the summer, trying to keep her identity under wraps while living next door to the man who inspired her books and still makes her heart race. Plotting Summer is a small-town island romantic comedy told from Capri’s point of view, with neighbors-to-lovers and secret crush vibes and a fun “book about books” angle as her fictional romance collides with real life. It’s a closed-door, clean story with no explicit scenes or language, which makes it a good pick if you want a flirty summer romance that stays family friendly.
