♥ About the Book

This is a story for anyone who has ever found themselves while trying not to lose everyone else.

She was wrong.

The Summer I Stopped Saving Everyone is a heartfelt and emotionally layered story about a woman learning that loving everyone else should never come at the cost of losing herself.

Centered on love, friendship, family, and the unexpected moments that force us to confront who we are, what we want, and what we’re willing to leave behind, this contemporary romance explores the beauty and heartbreak of choosing yourself.

Funny, honest, and deeply relatable this is a story for anyone who’s ever found themselves while trying not to lose everyone else.

What Phoenix Was Listening To In 2004

The playlist that lives in her car. The one that plays when she is trying not to feel something. Throwbacks, some R&B, one song she pretends she doesn't have memorized.
