A Summer to Remember

A Summer to Remember


by Erika Mongomery


⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐/5



This is a perfect beach read for the summer of 2021!


Through a mix of modern day interactions and flashbacks to a Hollywood golden times Erika tells the story of Frankie, a Hollywood memorabilia dealer as she tries to answer questions about her mothers life before she was born. When a mystery package arrives showing a connection for her mother on the East coast, Frankie is prompted to attend the Stardust Film Festival, where she finds a family heavily intertwined with her mother’s past in Cape Cod.


I loved the back and forth story telling through the different characters point of view. The mystery unravels itself as the characters open up to each other and their relationships intensify. The story and romance in this book absolutely captured me and I didn’t put this book down until it was done.


I adored the story and the characters debut author, Erika Mongomery has created here. She not only transported me to the Stardust Film Festival in Cape Cod, but back in time where Hollywood glamour was coming into its own.




A Summer to Remember by Erika Mongomery was released May 1st, 2021.



I received a complimentary copy of this book from St. Martin’s Press. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.

I loved how the romance also included the children because as a mother myself (happily married) I could never imagine being able to separate my love life from that of my family life. A new partner would definitely need to win over the kids along with me!  ...
