SEVEN SUMMER WEEKENDS
Are you looking for a beach read with more depth? SEVEN SUMMER WEEKENDS offers what you've been searching for. Jane L Rosen wrote the recent book On Fire Island that I really enjoyed and several of the characters are back in this new release. 
Read if you like:
• more emotional romcoms
• quirky characters
• Small-town vibes
• Fire Island setting
• third person narration
After Addison inherits a Fire Island house from her estranged aunt, she spends the summer there to decide whether she wants to keep or sell the property. Throughout seven weekends, she hosts various visitors to the island and gets to know her neighbours – one in particular – who helps her connect with her aunt and figure out her path forward. It is a story of how much can change over the course of a summer and how relationships with both new and familiar people can impact your life in various ways.
I laughed and I cried. I enjoyed the romance, I enjoyed the quirky side characters, and I loved how the summer beach setting took me away. This was by far more than just a typical beach read.

SUMMARY

A woman inherits a beach house, along with a series of weekend guests, while butting heads with the irritable (and irritatingly handsome) man next door, in this sparkling new escape from Jane L. Rosen.
 
When a Zoom disaster upends Addison Irwin’s decade-long career at a posh Manhattan advertising agency, things look bleak for the thirty-something mid-western transplant. But an unexpected inheritance from an aunt she barely remembers—a property on Fire Island, complete with guest house and artist’s studio—changes everything.
 
While debating whether to stay or sell, Addison learns that she’s also inherited her aunt’s list of eclectic guests, tying her to the island for seven summer weekends. Eager to convince Addison to keep the house rather than let a new buyer build a monstrosity in its place, the neighbors welcome her to their laid-back community. Well, all except the moody guy next door, who seems intent on glowering his way through life.
 
Steadfast in her path since college, Addison is determined not to let this detour on Fire Island throw her off track. But soon, between the revolving door of weekend visitors and the up-and-down relationship with her neighbor (and his adorable dog), she finds herself in unfamiliar territory. Should she try to pick up where she left off—or embrace entirely new possibilities?
