One Short Summer A Friends to Lovers Roommate Romance

Jasmin Miller — 2019

A sweet, flirty, and heartfelt romance with two roommates that spend one enthralling summer together. After her car accident, Monica believes her dance career is over, despite the positive outlook everyone else has. Instead of trying to get back on her feet, she works on perfecting the art of couch surfing. Famous author, Gabe Mitchell, doesn't fare much better. On top of watching his roommate letting her life pass by, he also suffers from a major bout of writer's block. Hoping a change of scenery will get them both out of their rut, Gabe takes matters into his own hands and whisks Monica away to his own personal haven. What neither one of them expects is the attraction to each other to bloom even though Monica will leave Brooksville in a matter of weeks. Their time together is filled with skimpy bathing suits, sexy fantasy book inspirations, hot tub make-out sessions, and new job prospects. It's plenty to reignite their creative flames, but will it be enough to turn their one short summer into something more? ***This is book two in the Brooksville series and can be read as a complete standalone. HEA guaranteed! (Book one is Baking With A Rockstar and features Gabe's brother Hudson.)***

One Short Summer is book two in the Brooksville series and is a’ friends to lovers/roommates to lovers’ book. These books can be read as a standalone. After a tragic car accident and unable to continue her career as a dancer while she heals, Monica moves in with Gabe to recover and get back on her feet again. Gabe is an author and has the ability to work from home making things easy for Monica as she knows someone is always there incase she needs him. While trying to help Monica get out of her depression and into a better frame of mind, he decides that they both need to get away. As they isolate themselves from others, both of them realize the feeling that they have for one another. I truly enjoyed this book. It was such an effortless read. Monica is stubborn and stuck in her ways but being able to watch her grow and better herself and get back to the true her was great. Gabe, my god, Gabe is so sweet and overall such a good guy. He wants nothing more than to help Monica get into a better head space. They make such a cute couple It was good to slow down and read something with a lot of thought and effort put into each characters who are not be surrounded by drama. It was so refreshing. Jasmin Miller writes beautifully and so easy to understand. This story that she built was so genuine and sweet and something that I needed to read without realizing it. I've been reading some dark books lately and this was the perfect break for me. It is cute, sexy, fun and flirty. If you are looking for a great beach day read, this ⭐⭐⭐⭐ star is the book for you. Perfect summer read!
