Downloading This Summer With You

Shae swore she’d never let her into her life again—until Em showed up at her family’s beach house for the summer.

Shae Hemingway spent four years in Italy convincing herself she’d moved on from her first love. The truth is, she’s still running from the girl who taught her how much a heart can hurt. The last time Shae spent time with Em Lauchner, they were eighteen—and their prom-night connection ended with a rumor that shattered Shae’s trust.

Rushing through the airport after a twelve-hour flight home, Shae learns her sister has invited Em to stay at the beach house for the summer. Now, they’re sharing the same house, the same friends, and one long Cape Cod summer with nowhere to hide from the past.

Em is longing to rekindle what they once had, but Shae still believes Em betrayed her after prom, and trusting the girl who broke her once might be the one risk she refuses to take. When another girl in the house begins getting closer to Shae, Em realizes she may have already lost the second chance she never stopped hoping for.

A slow-burn, second-chance sapphic romance filled with beach house game nights, messy friendships, buried secrets, and the kind of first love that refuses to stay in the past. Will they finally untangle what really happened and choose love, or lose each other all over again?
