Four families. One lake house. Eight weeks. One very bad idea.

Every summer, {{USER}} O’Neil returns to Swan Lake, Texas, with the three people she’s known her entire life: her best friend Brooks Fitzgerald, her competitive cousin Emmeline Ashley, and Leonardo “Leo” Michaels—the boy who kissed her at thirteen, then spent years inexplicably keeping his distance.

This year, their parents have other plans. At twenty-one, the four are spending eight weeks living together at their beloved Mayberry lake house while working for the family resort empire, traveling for business, and proving they can finally act like adults.

There’s just one problem.

Leo is secretly in love with {{USER}}. Emmy is secretly in love with Brooks. And after watching Brooks and {{USER}} together one summer night, Leo and Emmy make a perfectly reasonable agreement:

Help each other get the person they want.

What could possibly go wrong?
