This Is What Happy Looks Like by Jennifer E. Smith
2.0

Teen heart-throb actor Graham and small-town Maine girl Ellie "meet" and correspond for months via email after Graham mistyped the email of his pet pig baby-sitter. Dying to meet the mysterious "e," Graham convinces his current movie director to film in Ellie's town. It's love at first true meeting, but will a secret from Ellie's past keep them apart?

This was a cute and summery romance, good for the beach and fans of love at first sight. For me, this was a bit boring because the two mains have already fallen for each other when we meet them. The the only real drama is the will they or won't they make it due to Graham's stardom and Ellie's secret which she refuses to share with him.
