Desperate for relief, she agrees to a seemingly simple, no-strings arrangement proposed by her employee Owen—only to find her feelings growing as the season continues. With Owen planning to leave and emotions complicating everything, she must decide whether walking away is the worst choice she will ever make.","[OceanofPDF.com](OceanofPDF.com)  \nDrip It All Over Me  \nFulfilling my childhood wish of opening an ice cream shop is meant to be a dream come true, not a stress-inducing nightmare. And it’snot meant to make my friends concerned for my health either. But I’ll be fine! All we have to do is survive the summer and then I’ll be able to breathe again.  \nMy employee Owen has a different idea, though.  \nHe’s seen me watching him swim every morning, and he knows I think he’s ridiculously hot, so he proposes a simple solution to my stress: a summer-long, no-strings hook-up arrangement.  \nIt’s the perfect plan on paper. Except, the longer summer goes on, the more I’m developing feelings for the sunshine swimmer who loves my dream as much as I do. But I can’t tell him that. Because Owen doesn’t plan to stay. And I can’t ask him to.  \nEven if letting him walk away would be the worst decision I’ve ever made.  \n[OceanofPDF.com](OceanofPDF.com)  \nCopyright © Charlie Novak 2026 Published by Love Potion Press Amazon Ebook  \nISBN 978 1 918149 16 6 Cover by Natasha Snow  \nCover Photography by Wander Aguiar Editing by Lindsey Middlemiss Formatting by Pumpkin Author Services  \nAll rights reserved.

But the rest of it? The leaving behind my friends and community and the dream I’d convinced myself would make me happy ever since I was six years old? That would be more complicated.  \nMaybe I just wanted to run away because the reality of my icecream shop dream coming true was that it was so much harder than I could have ever imagined.  \nI’d known there would be late nights, early mornings, and constant stress over budgets and staffing and stock, but in my mind that had all felt manageable. If anything, I’d considered it a fun challenge. But now…I really wished I hadn’t manifested the idea of Lick It! being a runaway success. Because while, deep down, I knew I should be bloody grateful for the way the shop had taken off in the two months since we’d opened, I couldn’t help but idly dream for things to be quieter.  \nEven if I knew I’d be just as stressed then, only for different reasons.  \nIt was a damned either way kind of
