Summer Romance was my first Annabel Monaghan book, and I loved it so much! I will certainly be checking out her backlist and any future books she writes.
Monaghan wrote a beautiful and heartwarming story and it's one of the perfect summer reads. It's set in a coastal town, and I was fully immersed in the small-town vibes. The romance was also super cute where both characters weren't expecting it. I was also really rooting for Ali to find herself again after her grief and divorce. She’s a great character and she really deserved to heal and move forward. I think she definitely did that throughout this story.

thanks to the publisher and netgalley for giving me an e-arc for honest review. (late review i'm so sorry, but i did buy it on release date)
4.5 stars. this was my first book by tarah and I really enjoyed it! I will definitely check out her other works. this was such a cute little summer, small town romance with great banter and so many farm animals lol. i liked both sage and fisher independently and even better together.
Side note: I need a Wren and Ellis book asap!!
