Two best friends torn apart by a life-altering secret. One summer to set the record straight.
 
When twelve-year-olds Kat Steiner and Blake O’Neill meet at Camp Chickawah, they have an instant connection. But everything falls apart when they learn they’re not just best friends—they’re also half sisters. Confused and betrayed, the girls break off all contact.
 
Fifteen years later, when their father dies suddenly, Kat and Blake discover he’s left them a joint inheritance: the family beach house in Destin, Florida. The two sisters are immediately at odds. Blake, who has recently been demoted from regular nanny to dog nanny, wants to sell the house, while social media influencer Kat is desperate to hold on to the place where she lived so many happy memories.
 
Kat and Blake reluctantly join forces to renovate the dilapidated house, with the understanding that Kat will try to buy Blake out at the end of the summer. The women clash as Blake’s renovation plans conflict with Kat’s creative vision; meanwhile, each sister finds herself drawn into a summer romance. As the weeks pass, the two women realize the most difficult project they face this summer will be coming to grips with their shared past—and learning how to become sisters.

      Starred review from May 15, 2022
      Kat Steiner and Blake O'Neill became BFFs at Camp Chickawah, but their friendship did not survive the summer once they discovered that they share the same father. Now, 15 years later, their father has died and left a ramshackle beach house in Dustin, Florida, to both Kat and Blake. Fixing up the place to secure a top-dollar sale seems like the most logical thing to do, but can Kat and Blake overcome years of sibling silence and hurt feelings to work peacefully together? Brady's (the pseudonym for a new writing duo, Alison Hammer and Bradeigh Godfrey) perfectly executed debut offers a clever nod to the Disney classic, The Parent Trap, while also delivering an engaging story line that realistically and empathetically looks at grief and guilt and illuminates the important role family, friends, and forgiveness play in life. From the deft manner in which the authors shift the narrative between their two protagonists to the dual romances that unfold with just the right dash of snarky wit and sexy sizzle, readers will find The Beach Trap to be an absolute delight.
