THE SUMMER SHARE by Jenn McKinlay

After her grandfather died, Hannah travels in her vintage van that she’s lived in for five years to her newly inherited cottage in North Carolina. Her very large, goofy dog surprises a man on the dock and knocks him into the water. Hannah’s dumbfounded to learn that Simon and she both inherited the cottage. According to the will, they have to live together in the house for three months. After that time, they can explore options to either keep or sell the cottage. However, the decision must be unanimous.

Simon wants to sell the cottage to fund his brother’s health care. Hannah’s eager to put down roots, especially once the community charms her. Hannah and Simon spend their time repairing the cottage and learning more about their grandfathers.

While Hannah’s not a relationship person due to marriage trauma and her van lifestyle, she and Simon can’t ignore the sparks. They start up a flirtation. Can she convince Simon not to sell the house?

THE SUMMER SHARE is a standalone summer romance that will soothe your soul; it’s the perfect summer read. The relationship between Hannah and Simon is full of funny moments (that bat scene), banter, compromises, and understanding. This charming book also shares heartfelt moments, family drama, secrets, and one very large, goofy dog who steals all his scenes. As with most Jenn McKinlay books, I didn’t want this book to end.

When two misfits discover they’ve inherited the same beach house, sparks fly in the most unexpected ways, in this hilarious and heartfelt rom-com from the New York Times bestselling author of Summer Reading.

Free-spirited travel influencer Hannah Spencer has spent five years touring the country in her vintage van, alone save for her hulking Great Dane, Dude. Until an unexpected inheritance from her pops has Hannah thinking about putting down roots in Cape Split, North Carolina, where she’s the new owner of a worse-for-wear seaside beach house. Or, rather, fifty percent of one. Turns out Simon O’Malley inherited the other half from his gramps.

As Simon and Hannah spend the summer tag-teaming repairs on the crumbling cottage, they discover it was once home to a timeless love story. As their own relationship shifts from enemies to friends to lovers, they begin to wonder if the house’s romantic past might be a good omen for their future together. But there’s one problem—Simon is set on selling the property at the end of the summer.

For Hannah, the Split isn’t like anyplace she’s ever been, and Simon isn’t like any man she’s ever known—she doesn’t want to let this new life go. She just needs Simon to see their budding relationship and this newfound community in the same way, or their first summer share might also be their last.
