Childhood friends June and Levi both go viral for being very publicly broken up with. When Levi returns to their hometown where June is running a tea shop, they decide to pretend to date to turn the situation around for their own benefit. With all their history, it's hard to for the dating to stay fake.
This was a fun romance that also touched on reconnection, community, and grief.

Before I took over Tea Tide, I imagined running a tea shop by the ocean would be like something out of a Hallmark movie.

pickEmma Lord is known for her YA books and this is her adult romance debut. It's got all the right ingredients: a tea shop, scones, a romantic setting and two characters who you feel like you have known all of your life. I received this on audio and the narrator brought the story to life, allowing me to get lost in June and Levi's love story. If you are looking for a swoon worthy book for the holiday weekend, this one should be one you pick up.
