Wantedno, NEEDED: a summer escape with beach reads, cocktailsand a little romance on the side.

Everyone deserves a summer getaway, and where better to come undone than Miami? After a sudden end to her corporate legal career, Liliane Lily Lyon books a summer rental in The Icon, a quintessential Miami Art Deco building, and a failed business retreat turns into an unexpected but necessary sabbatical.

Immediately, Lily is enchanted by the colorful community that resides here. Her only plan is to bask in the sun, read, sip cocktails, and make friends. This is in stark contrast to her new neighbor, Benedicto Ben Romeroa MacArthur-grant winner, guest lecturer at the University of Miami, and resident tortured poet, whose only plan is to indulge in brooding introspection all summer long.

Though he tries, Ben cannot resist Lily’s charm and their shared interest in romance novels. Soon, hes reading with her by the pool, neglecting his academic pursuits to draft punchy book reviews, and getting involved in the love lives of their fellow tenants. Love gurus Lily and Ben are not. Hung up on past mistakes, they are fearful of the intense chemistry swirling between them. But an offer to expand their successful book club into a podcast opens new avenues and has them both questioning if theirs is just a summer fling or if a real-life happily-ever-after is within reach.
