Summer At Willow Lake
Combining hazy nostalgic summers with a hot romance, Summer at Willow Lake is the perfect beach read this summer!
At her grandparent’s request, property expert Olivia Bellamy trades a trendy Manhattan summer to help renovate the family’s dilapidating resort camp in the Catskills, to bring it back to its former glory for their 50th Wedding Anniversary party.
With a third broken relationship coming to an end, it seems like a perfect escape for Olivia - time for her to revisit the place where she spent many an unhappy summer as a child, battling with her unpopularity and awkward teenage years.
However, there was one person who brightened those summers for Olivia - her first love, and first heartbreak, Connor Davies.
So when it transpires that Connor runs the only development company in town, it seems that he is the only man who can help Olivia face the mammoth task ahead of her.
Reunited after nine years, Olivia and Connor find that old flames, even if extinguished for a while, can never fully die. But as they meet each other again, almost as strangers, can they revive what they once had, or was their romance just a teenage fling?
As the summer days grow hotter, Olivia is joined by a host of family and friends, all with their own problems - including Uncle Greg who is battling to maintain ties with his children through a messy divorce, best friend Freddy, who wants to be more than just that, and Connor’s troubled step-brother Julian.
Olivia finds the mammoth task of reviving the camp uncovers a shocking secret from the days when her parents were campers there.
Olivia must come to terms with a devastating revelation from her father, whilst trying to discover if first love should really be given a second chance, before summer comes to an end...
