One Last Summer

Some places hold memories you'd rather forget—and the people who made them.

Clara Millen's life has quietly unraveled. Her dream job turned into a daily nightmare, her love life is nonexistent, and she can't remember the last time she actually exhaled. When her friends invite her to their annual reunion at Pine Lake Camp—the beloved sleepaway camp of their childhood—Clara says yes before she can talk herself out of it. A summer of nostalgia, lakeside sunsets, and zero responsibilities sounds like exactly the reset she needs.

What she doesn't need is Mack.

Her old camp nemesis is somehow back in her orbit, and the years between them haven't softened the complicated history they share. But when Clara discovers that Pine Lake is being sold—the owners retiring, the camp's future uncertain—one last summer suddenly means something much bigger than a girls' trip. Preserving this place matters, and solving that problem means working alongside the one person who has always known exactly how to get under her skin.

This warm, witty contemporary romance captures the bittersweet magic of returning to the places that shaped you—and the people who know the version of you that existed before life got so complicated. Kate Spencer writes with irresistible charm, balancing laugh-out-loud moments
