Tucker follows the thirteen year story of Piper and Kyle. Piper grew up incredibly wealthy as her father builds and develops most of the areas architecture. She's a 29 year-old VP and preparing herself to take over the company when she runs into a new security guard in the building lobby and swears it's her old camp love Kyle. THE Kyle, who broke her heart thirteen years ago and never spoke to her again. And when approaches him in the lobby her appears not to recognize her at all.

The timeline jumps back and forth from Camp WaWa in 2006 to the present. Piper's mother who comes from her own humble beginnings insist that Piper spend the summer working as a counselor at Camp Wawa to gain some perspective. While 16 year-old Piper isn't thrilled about it, her attitude quickly changes when she meets Kyle, another counselor at camp that summer. Kyle appears to be the "bad boy" with some skeletons in his closet but he reciprocates her interest. You follow along on their journey and experience all of their first together during their one magical summer.

Back in present day, Piper finds her heart right back where it was 13 years ago and unable to forget Kyle. No matter what she tries she can't seem to get over it, nor does she want to. Could their feelings from that one summer a decade ago be rekindled or was it just a summer fling?

I LOVED this one. I read it in one shot and stayed up till 2:45 AM to finish it. K.A. Tucker has such an incredible way of not only telling a love story but creating a world where you care about everyone in the periphery as well. This book brought me right back to being 12 years old at Camp Rotary, my first sleep-away camp. All the butterflies, nervousness and excitement. It was so nostalgic weaving back in time to see Piper and Kyle's past unfold. Their love story is a slow burn, both in past and present but the build up was half of the charm. You'll find yourself flashing back to all of your own firsts as you follow through theirs. For lover's of romance who like getting sentimental - this one's for you! Make sure you grab your copy when it releases Aug 6, 2019! // ☕️☕️☕️☕️☕️ ...more

Say You Still Love Me was my first novel by K.A. Tucker and it definitely lived up to the hype.

The story is told in alternating chapters between Camp Wawa in 2006 and present day Lennox. It's not the best I've ever seen flashbacks writ ...more

Thanks to the publisher for my free copy of this book.

I just loved Say You Still Love Me! KA Tucker is one of my favorite authors and her latest novel did NOT disappoint. I am such a fan of the second-chance romance, and I always enjoy a childhood love story. This one was SO sweet, gave me all the warm & fuzzies, and honestly, I would’ve loved 100 more pages of this story! I could've used more "present" chapters but I loved the flashbacks as well. The summer camp setting makes this one the perfe ...more

Oh young love!

I absolutely adored K.A. Tucker's last book The Simple Wild so I couldn't wait to get my hands on Say You Still Love Me. I've noticed she has a thing where her female protagonists are kinda snobby at the start. Calla (from The Simple Wild) ended up being much more likable than Piper. Some of Piper's comments really rubbed me the wrong way and I was super bummed that I didn't love this one. I will say it picked up towards the end which ultimately bumped it from a three star to a fou ...more
