Book Blurb:
She’s in over her head when she ends up spending the summer with her best friend’s twin brother.
Ellie wasn’t looking for love when she agreed to work at Camp Lonely Pine for the summer, but she’s practically swimming in it. As the activity director for Girls Camp, she’s imagining days filled with fun games and evening campfires, not hours staring across the pool at Charlie, the handsome head lifeguard…. who happens to be the man she’s had a crush on for years— and her best friend’s twin brother.
When Ellie has to make sure that an upcoming event goes on without a hitch, she’s going to have to use all of her resources— including Charlie. Will she be able to reach out and ask for help from the one person she wants to be closest too? Or will she be left out to tread water alone in the deep end?
My Review:
If you have ever seen the movie Meatballs and enjoyed it then this book will have some instant appeal for you. The trials and tribulations of Ellie in her job at camp did make me think of the old Allan Sherman song - Hello Muddah, Hello Fadduh.
There is a romance here at camp and it's a very popular trope - sibling's best friend romance. It's Ellie with Charlie and his twin Cece and a camp full of kids.
The character development is spot on and gives depth to even secondary characters. The scene depiction is also strong. You can feel you are at the summer camp. The author has the gift to let a reader get lost in a scene.
The romantic journey of Ellie and Charlie is beautifully done. Don't go thinking this is another H-mark style book either. That formula doesn't apply here.
A really fun book that ticks every box a reader needs. A solid romance with a touch of mystery. Can't think of any romance reader who won't enjoy this book. If you like romance genre books, then buy this book and sit back and enjoy summer at the camp!
