This is just the book I needed to read after a heavy thriller! It was sweet, emotional, and very real. My first Paige Toon book, but it won't be my last!

This book has me in an absolute chokehold! This is a story I can 100% see becoming a movie. Absolutely beautiful storytelling! I really went into this blind and not knowing what to expected, but I’m so glad I gave this book a chance. Liv is a character that you root for and her journey through her adulthood and her experiences with love and family has you so invested. There are two MMCs in this one and the way Paige Toon handles the timelines is done so well and so smoothly. She gives attention to both men and doesn’t lessen one’s story over the other. They are handled with such care and you see the impact they both have on Liv that helps her overall character evolve. So well done! I can see myself going back and rereading this. If you want to feel all the emotions, pick this one up! It’s amazing!!

This was my first Paige Toon book and let me say, I’m a fan!! This book was a bit of a rollercoaster that kept me coming back at every chance I got!

if you like colleen hoover then you need to start reading Paige toon! I love her books. they are so heartfelt and they always make me cry.

Wow! What a book. I smiled, I cried, I had all of the emotions.

This book can really tug at you, and it was done beautifully. The story centers around Liv, who meets a man named Finn during a very tragic incident one summer. He is there for her many summers after, and the book talks about their romance during just those summers that they see each other. The story follows those past summers, as well as a timeline of the current summer. Can they hold on to what they love over all of this time?

It is beautifully written. This is the first book I have read by Toon, and I was not disappointed. Highly recommend!

On a side note, there is a playlist in the back. Definitely listen. It gives the book even more feels.

Wow! What a ride! This story follows Liv, a recent college grad as she goes home for the summer to make plans for life after school. She just starts getting to know what seems like a summer romance when something tragic happens, and he helps her through it. Unfortunately, he lives across the world but comes back every summer to visit family. This follows their story through seven years of summers with an epilogue that ventures into the future. It's a love story that really gets it right when it comes to trying to make decisions with logic when emotions are in the way. There are plenty of twists and turns that are reflective of life. Not all love stories are fairy tales, and HEAs certainly aren't all the same. Props to the author. I loved the writing.

I recommend this to anyone who loves a good romance. It will hit especially close to home if you've ever been stuck on someone who just wasn't going in the same direction as you. The fictions you create to make the highs worth the lows...

I received a complimentary copy of this book. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.

This book left me on a rollercoaster of emotions. It's this emotional, heartbreaking but beautiful romance, while also being a story of grieving, healing, and growth.

In the beginning the story is about Liv and Finn. I love Liv and Finn, they're adorable and sweet and everything feels sparkly and lovely, until this horrible thing happens and then it feels like they almost have a trauma bond. They start having a relationship only during the summers when Finn visits, since he lives in LA. But eventually something happens, and this ends.

The story is told in dual timelines, and I did enjoy how it went from each summer, to current time. Current time there is no Liv and Finn, so enter Tom. Please know that I hate love triangles, but this book didn't feel like a love triangle which made me really love it. I loved Finn and I loved Tom, and I think they each served a really important part in Liv's life. I really liked the side characters, especially Michael who was an absolute delight! Overall I loved this story, and where it ended up. I loved seeing Liv heal and process her grief and just come in to her own. It was really beautiful.

Thanks to NetGalley and Penguin Group Putman for this arc.

Thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for an ARC in exchange for an honest review!
This story will break your heart and repair it at least twice. This story is about love, loss, and fate. I loved Liv and her brother, Michael and how they drive each other crazy. Finn was probably my favorite character, but I always love a story with a musician as a main character. The accompanying playlist is just icing on the cake. Just a warning to those crazy people that don't read epilogues-so much happens in this epilogue that the events would be enough for an entire follow up book. Do yourself a favor and do not skip this one or you wont even really know how the book ends.

What a wonderful mix of hope, TRAUMA and heartache that really tugs at you while you read. I love the premise of revisiting a romance every summer, and all the complications that comes with that. I also loved how to book lead up to the NOW and choices that had to be made. The chemistry and angst and butterflies between the two leads were exactly right.

Seven Summers is a romance that follows the course of Liv's life and romances over seven years. While most of the summers are a once-a-year romance with Finn, the final summer involves a new love, Tom. While the chemistry and love with Finn were strong, Finn also left Liv heartbroken and lonely after every summer's visit. Tom offers a new chance though, but will she choose him or Finn in the end?

Unfortunately, this novel was a miss for me. This storyline just feels a bit overdone. I also was not a fan of the writing. The character development was weak, and the story arc bumpy. There was not really a buildup where I felt invested in the characters or their relationships. In the end, too much of the story content and resolutions were covered in a really long epilogue.

Thank you to G.P. Putnam's Sons and NetGalley for the e-galley in exchange for my honest opinion.

I will always always always read whatever Paige Toon writes! I love her tension filled romances with lots of angst and deeper themes. This hit all the right notes for me

It seems that many people enjoy this author’s writing because of the emotion she provokes. I love a good book that pulls feeling from the reader. However, I have now read two titles from this author, and I just feel like her books aren’t for me. Nothing against her writing, but I just have difficulty staying engaged.

Oh my goodness! This is a must read. All the feels, I laughed and cried. The characters were awesome, every single one. The story was amazing, and life changing. It really makes you think about what is important in life.
Thanks to netgalley, the publisher and Paige Toon for the chance to read this truly heartfelt story as an ARC.

There are not enough stars to give this book. One of the most heartbreaking, beautiful and redeeming books I've ever read. This was my first book from Paige Toon and I now plan to read every single other book that she's ever written. Her writing is effortless. It flows so beautifully and she has that gift with words that makes you unable to stop reading. I read so many romance books and I am finding so many of them are predictable and repetitive. I truly had no idea how this was going to end. I came up with all different scenarios, but was wrong each time. This book had me guessing up until the very end which is my definition of an amazing book! I didn't want it to end (although I needed to know how it ended!). Please check trigger warnings as there are several heavy topics throughout this book. Lastly, thank you to NetGalley for gifting me this ARC. It was a gem.

This author is just not for me. I don’t care for her writing style and can’t get into her stories. I have tried with a few of her books and it has always been the same outcome. I couldn’t finish.

Wow. This book broke me in so many ways.
Things just kept happening one after another.
The Grief of losing her parents I relate a lot to cause I recently lost my mom. So many roller coasters in this book. So many ups and downs. But I'm glad liv got ending that was some of what she deserved.

This was a beautiful story. I got a bit distracted by multiple narrators and time jumping forward and backwards. I’m glad I hung in there because it was worth it. The characters are very well developed. The story begins with Liv and Finn working together in Cornwall for a summer. After the summer, Finn is obligated to go back to LA to work with his band. They make an agreement to meet in Cornwall every summer and if they are both single, they will spend the summer together. The book takes place over the next seven years. During the last summer, Liv gets a new tenant named Tom and they start a new relationship. When Finn returns, things get a bit complicated.

Also reviewed on B&N (1IrishEyes430) and Kobo (IrishEyes430)

Liv and Finn met six Summers ago working at a bar, their lives full of only what lies ahead of them. When a night of passion ends in tragedy for Liv, they find their timing isn't right and Liv's future suddenly being tied to the Cornish seaside where they reside. They both make a promise to each other - Finn will return to town every Summer while his heart is still open and waiting for her. This Summer - this seventh Summer - Finn does not return and Liv finds herself continually crossing paths with Tom, the man staying in her guesthouse. And for the first time Liv can imagine a season after Summer where her heart is not broken.

I really wanted to enjoy this book... I really did, especially when reading the reviews, etc. However, it felt like it dragged on a bit and there was just a lack of communication between Liv and those around her. This lack of communication didn't cause for a fun read for me and felt as though it contributed to Liv's unhappiness in being stuck in Cornwall while Finn lived freely in LA. The dialogue and overall story just felt very after school special to me and I found it very difficult to read at most points.

The book very much gave me Nicholas Sparks vibes. It was fresh and engaging. It left me wanting more. Paige Toon does not dally when it comes to wrenching your heart and soul right out of your body. She gives you love and loss and has you asking for seconds with a please and thank you. I absolutely loved this book and look forward to reading more of her work.

LOVE!!!!!! This book gave me all the feels. It was beautiful and I couldn’t put it down. This is the perfect summer read.
