If This Were a Love Story - Paperback

by Sara Lafontain (Author)

Amanda O'Connell is one mistake away from losing everything.

A DUI and a questionable choice with her twin's ID have landed her in the middle of a family intervention-and sentenced her to a summer of forced sobriety working at her cousin's inn on remote Whispering Pines Island. She can't imagine anything worse...until she misses the ferry, winds up in a bar, and gets rejected by the tattooed drummer of her dreams.

Everett Ryan has built a life of calm routine. Running the ferry keeps him steady, and playing music with his band is all the rhythm he needs. The last thing he wants is Amanda-a beautiful whirlwind who crashes straight through his carefully guarded peace. With his father's death a constant reminder of the destructive power of addiction, Everett knows better than to let someone like her get too close. But avoiding Amanda is impossible when the only way on and off the island is through him.

As summer unfolds, sparks fly, walls crack, and the pull between them grows impossible to deny. Yet Amanda's past is never far behind-and one wrong move could shatter their chance at something real.

If This Were a Love Story is a witty, heartfelt novel of second chances, self-discovery, and the unexpected ways love can change everything.
