The One Shore Thing: A Wholesome Enemies-to-Lovers Rom-Com (Hollybrook Book 3)

When Ava Youngdeer's family campground becomes the target of her insufferable new neighbor's expansion plans, she has exactly one response: absolutely not.

Ava has spent her whole life proving she's capable of running Hollybrook Lake's beloved lakeside campground, and she's not about to hand it over to Paul Johnson—the annoyingly polished director of the neighboring country club who thinks replacing her family's legacy with a luxury yurt colony is somehow an improvement. Paul sees the campground as outdated. Ava sees Paul as the enemy. The feeling is entirely mutual.

Their professional standoff quickly spirals into full-blown small-town warfare, complete with petty sabotage and the kind of bickering that makes Hollybrook's residents very interested bystanders. But when a mysterious scavenger hunt—lovingly crafted by Ava's late best friend—surfaces and insists on two participants, Ava and Paul find themselves reluctantly partnered up, following clues across the charming lakeside community they both call home.

Somewhere between the campfire smoke and competitive scorekeeping, the lines between rivalry and something far more complicated start to blur. This clean and wholesome small-town rom-com delivers every bit of slow-burn tension, laugh-out-loud banter, and heartfelt emotion you could want from an enemies-to-lovers story—with a mystery woven through that carries as much warmth as the romance itself.

Will Ava save the campground? Will Paul ever admit he's wrong? More importantly—will either of them survive falling for each other?
