One Island Summer
About this ebook
An island paradise. A shocking betrayal. A love she never expected...
Lily Burnside expected a luxury getaway to a private tropical island. Instead, trapped there with her parents and her mother’s glamorous best friend Mollie, she’s haunted by a dangerous suspicion: her father and Mollie are hiding a scandalous secret.
Seeking escape on the island’s secluded beaches, Lily collides with Luke Bellinger – the arrogant teenage bully who once made her school years a misery. Now a rugged, handsome marine biologist, Luke is determined to prove he’s changed. And as steamy island nights draw Lily into a world of irresistible attraction, her carefully guarded defences begin to crumble.
But with her family’s betrayal on the brink of exploding, can Lily surrender to the one man she swore she’d never trust?
A sun-soaked, sexy and irresistible summer romance about family secrets, second chances and falling for the one person you swore you’d never love.

About the author
Rachel Barnett lives in beautiful rural Wiltshire, with her family and their two Labradors, affectionately known as Best Boy and Brat Boy. After a wonderful career as a primary school teacher (yes, it is as exhausting as everyone says!), and creating a little monster of her own, a chink of spare time saw her taking the leap into the unknown, fulfilling a lifelong desire to write a novel. Rachel writes seasonal escapist women’s fiction, combining exceptional ‘wish you were here’ locations with more than a touch of romantic drama for her main characters, and always with a lively group of supporting characters busy with their own escapades to resolve – after all, everyone deserves a happy ending.
