A Summer Must-Read!
Format: Kindle
Hannah Spencer and Simon O’ Malley both are grieving the recent passing of their grandfathers when they learn they are now co-owners of Pop’s and Gramp’s beach house in the Outer Banks. Hannah, who is a traveling national park influencer, is looking forward to staying one place for a while. Simon just wants to sell as quickly as he can so he can use the funds to take care of his disabled brother. The two immediately butt heads, but must live together during the summer before finally agreeing what to do with the house. As Hannah and Simon uncover long held secrets, they begin to grow close as they navigate their grief. Will Hannah and Simon come to an agreement about the house, or will the summer together be all for nothing? Jenn McKinlay once again delivers a heartfelt romance infused with laugh-out-loud humor and a cast of scene-stealing supporting characters. Hannah and Simon are lovingly endearing, and their journey together is nothing short of inspirational. The topics of infertility, death of a loved one, and toxic family members is dealt with thought-provoking relatability. Add this to your summer reads list immediately!

Great beach read!
Format: Kindle
This is a great beach read! Hannah is a travel influencer, touring the country in her vintage van with her Great Dane, Dude. She was thinking about settling down in a real home for a while when she inherited a beach house from her Pops. As she arrives, she unexpectedly runs into Simon, who is under the impression that it is his house, left to him by his Gramps. When the lawyer arrives to explain things, it turns out that they each own 50% of the house. In order to inherit, they each must spend at least two months living in the house and there are a few other stipulations included. Neither of them is happy about the situation, as Hannah wants to live there, and Simon wants to sell. As they meet people in the neighborhood, they find out there is a lot they didn’t know about their grandfathers. The characters are quite well developed and interesting. I enjoyed watching their relationship develop.

A little greasy, stains hands, smells great
This tanning lotion is better than Planet Fitness lotion, but I am giving it time since I just started using it, but I can tell it smells delicious, lotion as well. A little greasy for my liking but it gets the job done! Make sure to use a glove as the stuff can stain your hands!!! The lotion goes on like BUTTER! 🧈

GREAT - Must buy!
Cannot reccomend these enough. Actually helps turn your burns into tan and reduce redness with the after sun product and the tan enhancer REALLY works. Be careful to let the brown enhancer dry if you're wearing white as it will rub off on your clothes but it did wash out!

Does not absorb all the way BUT STILL THE BEST!
This is THE BEST outdoor/by the pool/by the water tanning lotion ever! I have used it in my tanning bed for years. It gives you a STUNNING rich, brown tan after just a couple of sessions. I will say the browning lotion doesn't absorb all the way so it does and will make a mess! But it does NOT stain ever, it washes right off. Once I am done tanning, I just take a dry towel and remove excess lotion. The after tan lotion is amazing and will turn any little burn into a beautiful tan overnight! My all time fave! It smells like mocha and coffee which makes sense because there's coffee as an ingredient!
