A sun-soaked summer, the wedding of the season, and a love triangle between your best friend and lifelong nemesis

Maggie always expected to be the bride when her best friend Walker got married. But life had other plans. Now she’s traveling to New England, preparing to watch him tie the knot with someone else.

So, Maggie does the only rational thing: She hooks up with Lucas, the brooding, recently divorced brother of the bride and hides in the abandoned satellite tower that looms over the coast . . . only to wake up in her past.

Suddenly she’s reliving her summer after college: Walker hasn’t fallen in love with his future wife, Lucas is on the verge of his own wedding, and Maggie’s mother is still in her life. Seizing the opportunity to do it again, Maggie embraces the chance to see if Walker was meant to be hers, but starts to wonder, "What if Lucas is meant to be mine?"

Advanced Praise

“A delightful, diverting romp through time and second chances, Lucy Keating’s What If I Do had me smiling from the very first page. This escapist yet emotionally grounded exploration of love—romantic, familial, and platonic—is an absolute charmer.” —Alexandra Oliva, USA Today bestselling author of The Radiant Dark

What If I Do had me hooked from minute one. The speculative premise is wildly inventive, and the chemistry leaps off the page. This steamy, heartfelt romance was an absolute delight.” —Jilly Gagnon, author of What If It’s You?

“A speculative whirlwind, a deeply-felt romance, and a love letter to summertime that absolutely sparkles.” New York Times bestselling author Katie Cotugno

“Lucy Keating surprised me and pulled off something romance novels rarely do: I couldn't predict who was getting the happily ever after.” —Erin La Rosa, author of Not You Again
