Some summers are a haze of sunburn and and champagne. Some summers change everything.
Set between the unrelenting bar scene of Hoboken and the vibrant, stimulating bars of the Jersey Shore in 2016, Beach Dogs follows Olivia and her friends as they rent their first shore house and indulge in a summer of reckless nights, blurry mornings, messy hookups, loud betrayals, and ever-evolving friendships set to a memory invoking soundtrack of the time and place.
In their late twenties, they are living for the moment, stuck quasi-perpetually single and suspended between the lure of holding onto youth and the reality of pending adulthood. They chase careers of expectation, fleeting unrealistic romances, and the version of life they think they want, even as the road ahead looks anything but smooth.
As romances implode and emerge with each hot summer night, secrets surface, and the line between loyalty and survival begins to blur, Olivia realizes not everyone will leave the summer as the same person they were when it began.
A Neo-Gatsby realism-driven story that is raw, self-deprecatingly funny, nostalgic, and sharply observant, Beach Dogs is a novel about friendship, heartbreak, ambition, and holding onto those beautiful late-twenties years before real life finally catches up in the hangover of brutal Monday mornings.
