A special collector’s edition of the fan favorite, TikTok sensation enemies-to-lovers romance It Happened One Summer from #1 New York Times bestselling author Tessa Bailey. This gorgeous edition features sprayed edges with stenciled artwork, full-color designed endpapers, and a foil stamped case. Piper Bellinger is fashionable, influential, and her reputation as a wild child means the paparazzi are constantly on her heels in this hilarious and heartfelt romantic comedy. When too much champagne and an out-of-control rooftop party lands Piper in the slammer, her stepfather decides enough is enough. So he cuts her off, and sends Piper and her sister to learn some responsibility running their late father’s dive bar... in a small fishing town in Washington. Piper hasn’t even been in Westport for five minutes when she meets big, bearded sea captain Brendan, who thinks she won’t last a week outside of Beverly Hills in the scenic Pacific Northwest. So what if Piper can’t do math, and the idea of sleeping in a shabby apartment with bunk beds gives her hives. How bad could it really be? She’s determined to show her stepfather—and the hot, grumpy local—that she’s more than a pretty face. Except it’s a small town and everywhere she turns, she bumps into Brendan. The fun-loving socialite and the gruff fisherman are polar opposites, but there’s an undeniable, steamy attraction simmering between them. Piper doesn’t want any distractions, especially feelings for a man who sails off into the sunset for weeks at a time. Yet as she reconnects with her past and begins to feel at home in Westport, Piper starts to wonder if the cold, glamorous life she knew is what she truly wants. LA is calling her name, but Brendan—and this town full of memories—may have already caught her heart. She’s supposed to prove she can be responsible. What happens when her biggest distraction becomes her only reason to stay? Grumpy Sunshine: He's a big, bearded sea captain who thinks she's a spoiled princess. She's a fashionista determined to prove the hot, grumpy local wrong. Enemies to Lovers: Piper and Brendan are polar opposites who can't stand each other. But in a town this small, their simmering attraction is bound to lead to an explosion. Fish Out of Water: From rooftop parties in LA to running a dive bar in Westport, Piper Bellinger is in way over her head. And she might just be starting to like it. Forced Proximity: There’s nowhere to hide in a town like Westport. Every time Piper turns around, she's bumping into the gruff fisherman who’s beginning to feel dangerously like home.
