Fun fact: Summer is my favorite time of year. And I’ll go a step further and say it’s my favorite time to shop for the home. Making my outdoor spaces summer-ready is my absolute favorite! But I also know, it can get overwhelming! So if you like a good Nancy Meyers aesthetic with a pop of coastal fun, you’ve come to the right place. In honor of my main character, Dahlia, I’ve created a curated list of outdoor summer picks from Target. There’s texture, color & a bit of whimsy!

If you’ve read The Summer I Found You, then you know Dahlia has got some decorating to do. She’s got the upstairs porch and a screened porch overlooking the Peconic Bay. This collection feels vintage-inspired while staying current and stylish. I’d say a little like Dahlia.
This is the vibe of the book. Think Nancy Meyers meets HGTV with my FMC embracing her coastal niece vibes. This is what I’d imagine Aunt Lil’s porch (below) to look like in its glory. If you’ve read the book, then you know. But Aunt Lil’s gardens are her pride and joy, especially her dahlias. Oh, and did I mention there are secrets buried there? Curious now? I hope so! Here’s the blurb below.
A recently divorced single mom returns to her family’s fixer-upper beach house and finds romance amidst the heartbreak—and truths buried under generations of lies—in this summertime romance, perfect for fans of The Beach House and Nora Goes Off Script. You can find more HERE.
If beach reads are your thing, then don’t miss my list below. It’s a mix of romance, re-invention, resurrection, mystery, and family dynamics.
If you’re an audiobook junkie, like me, then you’ll love this book on audio. The narrators are Samantha Brentmoor & Greyson Owens. You can find it HERE.
Happy shopping & reading!
