Piper Bellinger is the stepdaughter
of a rich and famous movie mogul. She is
known for her fashion sense, party ways, and penchant for being on social
media. After a wild night that leads to
her arrest, her stepfather decides that she needs to go back to the state of
Washington to take care of her father’s dive bar that was left to her in his
will. Piper and her sister Hannah set
off on an adventure and find much more than they bargained for. Piper immediately meets sea captain and
widower, Brendan. Will Piper be able to figure
out in what direction she wants to take her life?
It Happened One Summer is
a Schitt’s Creek inspired romance with Piper being a lot like Alexis Rose. I thought it was a very fun book and loved
Piper’s adventures. I also love how she
got to know more about herself and her biological father. The chemistry between Piper and Brendan is very
steamy. My only negative of the book is
being a closed-door romance fan, the door was wide open for a large part of the
middle of the book. I actually grew a
bit bored in the middle of the book as there was no plot movement besides the
main couple getting it on. Luckily, the
plot moved again, and the book had a satisfying conclusion. I really hope there is a second book with
Hannah and Brendan’s friend Fox having a romance.
Favorite Quotes:
“Maybe Hannah had a point
about social media having too much ownership over her thoughts and enjoyment.”
“People tend to avoid
grieving. Grief in general. And there’s no one with more grief than a
parent who has lost a child.”
“Those visits made her
feel a million times better than the momentary bursts of internet stardom.”
Overall, It Happened One
Summer is a fun and entertaining romance that is a must read if you love Schitt’s
Creek.
