If you've ever loved someone you didn't know how to keep - this one's for you.
We Lost the Summer is a slow burn friends to lovers small town romance about the last summer before everything changes - and the childhood best friend who makes leaving feel impossible.
Harper Moore has spent her whole life waiting to leave Gnaw Bone Indiana. She has a scholarship, a plan, and one summer left. What she doesn't have is a way to walk out the door without leaving behind the person she loves most.
When flyers with her face on them turn her buried feelings into town gossip, and the reckless choices of everyone around her pull her life further out of control, Harper finds herself on the verge of losing everything she loves - just before she drives toward a life she isn't sure she's ready for.
A next door neighbor romance. A fake dating story with real consequences. A slow burn coming of age debut that earns every page of its ending.
The friends-to-lovers story done the way it was always meant to be - slowly, painfully, and without shortcuts.
Perfect for readers of Jenny Han, Jennifer Hartmann, Emily Henry, Taylor Jenkins Reid, and Laura Nowlin.
Tropes: Slow burn - Friends to lovers - Small town - Fake dating - Childhood best friends - Next door neighbor - Coming of age - Unrequited love
