Hannah Bellinger has formed an unlikely friendship with Fox Thornton—but when she comes to stay with him while her production company films in Westport, the friendship might be about to blossom into something more…despite their own best efforts. 
 
I *adored* IT HAPPENED ONE SUMMER, and this one was an absolutely worthy successor. I really loved the friends-to-lovers dynamic of Hannah and Fox, and appreciated the way their romance unfolded. In particular, I loved this take on the “player” trope and the subtle exploration of toxic masculinity, which wasn’t an angle I’ve seen before! 
 
I did have a few issues with pacing and this was a MUCH slower burn than I’m used to from TB (which is not necessarily a bad thing, just a noteworthy one). But all in all I had SO much fun with this, and with the duology as a whole!

I knew this book was friends to lovers, but since reading the first one I had forgotten about Fox’s main plot point being that he’s a manwhore. Seeing him unpack that especially with the help of Hannah was so interesting & well done. Not something I’ve ever had be a main plot point in a book I’ve read. That was probably my favorite part of the book.

I loved this book it was so cute i loved the little epilogue to Fox and Hannah were so cute and do not let this innocent little cover fool you this book is spicy and the male main character is spicy my lord the mouth on him and the looks from him i kept kicking my feet and giggling every time Fox got jealous of even the mention of Sergei i also loved every scene with Fox and Hannah together i love the whole Bellingers sisters series fisherman vibe after this series I definitely will be looking for more ocean related romance books this book was friends to lovers,Forced proximity,Small town romance and Slow burn its also a happy ending with no cliffhangers and this book is in a series the first book is called It happened one summer these books do not have to be read in order but i highly recommend reading them in order because this book has the main characters in the first book in the epilogue and throughout the book so it’s Kind’ve a spoiler but it can be read in any order it also has no love triangle and no cheating between the main characters overall i rated this book 4 stars⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
