About this ebook

Falling in love wasn't part of the plan...

Life is just dandy for aspiring fashion designer Annalise Farley. She has a great job—or she will once her designs are discovered—parents who only slightly disapprove, a cat that thinks she’s a dog, and a best friend...even if she hasn’t seen her in a while.

But then Jake Maxwell saunters back into her life. Jake, the love god. Jake, her best friend's older brother. Jake, who broke her heart at sixteen without realizing it, then left to become a pro surfer. Now he’s back, having taken the surfing and business worlds by storm, and he’s ready for a new challenge—catching the eye of another girl. And he wants Annalise’s help.

Helping Jake land his next girlfriend is too fraught with emotional danger for her liking, but then Jake offers to put her designs in his shops. Is that the sound of her life splitting at the seams? It’s hard to tell with Jake smiling at her like she's the only thing that makes him happy...

The Summer of Jake is a sweet romance with none of the overdone angst I expected — and the best cat ever. It's absolutely perfect for readers who are tired of characters who sabotage things to hide their feelings and prefer a slow build with plenty of chemistry over the usual fall-into-bed-too-soon mess that other romance novels serve up. *Rcvd for free in exchange for an honest review.

About the author

Rachel Bailey is a lover of books, chocolate, dogs, and ice cream. Luckily, she has three dogs, an ice cream maker, a steady supply of chocolate, and bookshelves overflowing with books, so she's covered on all fronts.
Despite spending her life trying to scam more time to read, she's managed to graduate with degrees in psychology and social work, and now has her dream job – making up stories for a living.
Her books have hit the USA Today bestseller list, are published in over twenty-six countries and have been translated into sixteen languages.
She lives on a piece of paradise (ten acres of native trees on the side of a hill, within driving distance to the beach) on Australia's east coast with her own personal hero. She loves to sit with a dog or two, overlooking the trees and read books from her ever-growing to-be-read pile.
