Spicy Contemporary Romance for Summer in a Beach Town (Bellinger Sisters Book 1)

Make sure there's space in your beach bag for this fantastic summer read! This is the first installment of a spicy, unforgettable rom-com duology by Tessa Bailey, the #1 New York Times bestseller and TikTok sensation. The story follows a Hollywood "It Girl" who, cut off from her affluent family, finds herself exiled to a quaint Pacific Northwest beach town. Here, she clashes with a brooding, charming local who doubts her ability to fit in.

Piper Bellinger is a fashion icon and social media influencer, constantly pursued by the paparazzi due to her wild reputation. After an extravagant rooftop party spirals out of control, Piper ends up in jail. Her stepfather, having reached his limit, decides to sever financial support and sends Piper and her sister to manage their late father's dive bar in Washington state as a lesson in responsibility.

Barely settling into Westport, Piper encounters Brendan, a rugged sea captain with a beard and a skeptical attitude. He’s convinced that a Beverly Hills socialite like Piper won’t last a week in their small town. Despite her aversion to math and discomfort with the idea of living in a rundown apartment with bunk beds, Piper is determined to prove her stepfather—and the grumpy local—wrong.

However, Westport is tiny, and Piper finds herself running into Brendan everywhere. While they are polar opposites, with Piper’s bubbly socialite personality clashing with Brendan’s gruff demeanor, a magnetic attraction grows between them. Despite her desire to avoid distractions, particularly those involving a man who is frequently away at sea, Piper begins to rethink her glamorous LA life. As she reconnects with her past and starts to feel at home in Westport, she questions whether the high life she left behind is truly what she wants.

With LA calling her name, Piper might find that Brendan—and the town full of new memories—have captured her heart. Featured on E! Online, PopSugar, CNN, EliteDaily, Vulture, Buzzfeed, Bustle, the Nerd Daily, PARADE, LA Magazine, Country Living, USA Today, and more!
