Dolly All The Time by Annabel Monaghan

If you’ve ever stood at the edge of Perkins Cove, watching the boats sway and the light go golden over the water, you already know the kind of magic a seaside town can hold. Dolly All the Time bottles up that exact feeling.

From the New York Times bestselling author of Nora Goes Off Script, this one is pure summer in your hands.

Meet Dolly Brick. A hardworking single mom who has never met a problem she couldn’t solve. At thirty-nine, she moves back to her seaside hometown of Whitfield, Rhode Island for the summer, determined to keep her dad and brother from losing the family home. And then she runs into Stewart Whitfield, the annoyingly handsome scion of the local dynasty, stranded with a flat tire and a very public, very humiliating breakup.

It’s in Dolly’s nature to help. So when Stewart proposes an arrangement, she says yes. But fake dating has a way of getting real, doesn’t it? Public dinners turn into sunset boat rides. Polite gestures turn into kisses that hit, as Dolly puts it, like a ghost pepper.

The question lingers: If they start by pretending, can they end with something real?

As Catherine Newman, New York Times bestselling author of Sandwich, raves: “This book is like a spicy margarita… sweet and a little salty, tart and hot… I have fallen in love with Dolly and with funny, fizzing Annabel Monaghan!”

Salty, sweet, and impossible to put down. Grab a copy, find a sunny spot, and let this one carry you away.
