The designer who ran. The vet who stayed.
One quirky small town that refuses to let them dodge the truth.
When Olivia Mitchell comes home to Holiday, Oregon for ‘just the summer,’ she brings a suitcase, a sketchbook, and a promise to help her mom. She does not plan on being tackled by a golden retriever—or on locking eyes with Luke Harrison, the boy she loved before life (and other people’s plans) pulled them apart.
Holiday has other ideas.
Drafted to co-chair the Summer Festival, Olivia and Luke are thrown into forced proximity—budget spreadsheets, bylaw debates, and late-night layout runs that feel dangerously like dates. He’s a small-town veterinarian with a secret blueprint for a wildlife rehab center. She’s a New York designer with a Paris offer and a deadline circling the calendar. Between them: a glossy developer promising ‘progress,’ a storm gathering off the coast, and a stack of letters that could rewrite everything they think they know about why they broke.
When the power fails and rain pounds the clinic roof, honesty hits harder than the wind. Old wounds. New choices. A town worth fighting for.
Second Chance Summer is a heartfelt small-town romance about coming home, choosing yourself, and daring to love again. Expect forced proximity, festival shenanigans, found family, one very good dog, and a guaranteed HEA. Set in Holiday, Oregon—can be read as a standalone.
Perfect for fans of Abby Jimenez, Emily Henry, and Devney Perry.
