Why wouldn't he be? The three of them grew up together in Harmony Valley, a small town nestled in a northern corner of rural Sonoma County. But things changed. Now widowed, Shelby has moved back to her sleepy hometown to care for her grandfather and work for the small winery that's opening. She hasn't seen Gage in a long time.

Book excerpt: “We’re roommates with benefits,” I offer. “Taking advantage of our mutual attraction for a mutually beneficial arrangement. For the summer.” Law school dropout Beck Avery needs to figure out his next act, but he’d rather procrastinate by the pool while he house sits for his cousin in picturesque Rosedale, Connecticut. He wasn’t expecting company, but when it turns out another guy has also been promised the house for the summer, he’s happy to compromise, especially since his co-house sitter is as hot as the pavement in July. Broadway actor Donovan Eastman is planning to use a summer in the sticks to finish his unfinishable play. But writing isn’t going so well, and his unexpected roommate isn’t helping. Beck’s either sunning in a Speedo by the pool or baking cookies that taste like Donovan’s childhood. How is he expected to get any work done with that kind of distraction? Well, as Oscar Wilde says, the only way to get rid of a temptation is to yield to it. Getting Beck in his bed is the logical thing to do. But Beck doesn’t do hook-ups and Donovan is definitely not in the market for a boyfriend. They make an arrangement for the summer—two months, no strings. Beck knows he’s not getting out of this with his heart intact, but if Donovan is his exception, then maybe he’ll be Donovan’s. As the summer draws to a close, will they be able to leave Rosedale, and each other, behind? Cool for the Summer is a stand-alone, slow burn, roommates-to-lovers, summer fling story with a dash of cookie baking and plenty of sweet and steamy small-town goodness perfect for fans of Lucy Lennox and Riley Hart.
