Full of sweet romance, this coming-of-age story is the perfect summer escape.
Every year when the weather gets warm, tourists flock to Gray Jay, the cutest little resort town in the Rocky Mountains. Seventeen-year-old local native Lacey has one rule: never fall for the summer boys. She's been there, done that, and regretted it for a solid year. No one is going to change her mind, not even tall, blond, and handsome Landon Tillman.
Landon's not looking for a summer fling. Still nursing a broken heart months after his girlfriend dumped him, he's content to travel the country with his family and create videos for their wildly popular internet travel channel.
But when well-meaning family members try to push Lacey and Landon together, the duo decides to fake a romance so they can enjoy their summer in peace. After all, what could go wrong?
True, they'll have to spend a lot of time together to make the relationship look believable. They might even have to share a kiss or two for the sake of credibility. And sure, it's possible lines will blur and fake feelings might morph into something real...
But that's just a chance they're going to have to take.

If the Summer Lasted Forever is 55,000-word sweet young adult romance.
