Book description
A quirky island off the coast of Maine seemed like the perfect escape from the pesky media when my life in Hollywood fell apart. From the moment I step off the ferry in Monhegan Island it’s clear that no one wants me here though, least of all the grumpy single dad who seems affronted by my mere existence.
Fisher Jones is stupidly handsome, goes nowhere without his beloved golden retriever Bing, and speaks in nothing but grunts.
Unfortunately for Fisher, I’m not going anywhere. In fact we’re neighbors. And his daughter Sutton, just like every other eight year old in America, is obsessed with me.
Summer in Monhegan isn’t at all what I expect, but neither is Fisher. I haven’t quite figured out why he’s so miserable, but I’m also not volunteering what I’m running from.
All I know is the Islanders aren’t the only ones worming their way into my heart. Though, I suppose it won’t matter how I feel, if my past catches up to me. Maybe I’m destined to be nothing more than summer people.

4. What were the secrets you might’ve thought Libby was hiding early on? Were you right?
5. What’s the “summer people” equivalent where you live—are they glam visitors or a total nuisance?
6. Libby swears off dating for the summer to find herself, but sometimes the heart has other plans. Have you ever had love hit at the worst (or best) time?
7. Have you ever tried goat (or other animal) yoga—or anything else that seemed ridiculous but totally worked?
8. How would it feel to have to wear a mask all the time like Libby—playing a role for the world? Ever done it in your own life?

10. Did you guess the stalker/dangerous person before the reveal? What clues tipped you off (or totally threw you off)?
