Book Synopsis

"[A] satisfying page-turner, complete with adorable animals and an idyllic summer setting."--Publishers Weekly on The Summer of No Attachments

Summer flings with no strings mean nobody gets hurt.
At least, that was the plan...

After putting the brakes on her dead-end relationship, local veterinarian Ivey Anders is ready to soak up this summer on her own terms. The way she sees it, no dating means no disappointment. Why complicate life with anything long-term? But when she meets Corbin Meyer--and his troubled young son, Justin--Ivey's no-strings strategy threatens to unravel before she can put it into practice.

Trust doesn't come easy for Ivey's best friend, Hope Mage, a veterinary-clinic assistant who's affected by an incident that's colored every relationship she's had. Though Hope's happy for Ivey, she can't quite open her own heart to the possibility of love. Not just yet... Maybe not ever. Soon, however, she's faced with a dilemma--Corbin's older brother, Lang. He's charming, he's kind...and he may just be the reason Hope needs to finally tear down her walls.

And as the sweet summer months unspool, the two friends discover love won't give up on them so easily.

Don't miss The Little Flower Shop, an all new heartwarming summer read from New York Times bestselling author Lori Foster about a 40-something florist who, with the help of her meddling small town, gets a second chance at life and love.
