Hopeless Romantics - Book 3.5 - From Hope Lake, with Love

Cooper, Emmanuelle, Henry, and Nick used to be inseparable. They grew up together, went to school together, and shared all of their major milestones together. But they've grown apart over the years, so when they all return to their small hometown as adults, it's incredibly awkward between them. Emmanuelle starts working in the city-planning office, finally becoming part of her father's professional world. Henry is as perfect as ever, teaching English at the local high school and quickly becoming a favorite of the town. Nick, who has recently joined his father's landscaping business, is still as wild and unpredictable as ever. And Cooper, who is looking for direction in his life, gets a job working in the planning office with Emmanuelle. When the four come together to help plan the town's annual Fourth of July Festival, the result is anyone's guess. As the group learns to reconcile the past and to accept each other for who they are now, they must learn to focus on the future and let go of what's holding them back.
