Books like Remember Summer by Ann Maxwell

Raine Smith stands at the threshold of the most grueling challenge of her equestrian career—the Olympic Games. Expecting a test of skill and endurance, she never imagines that the real danger will come from a stranger who promises to shield her from gunfire. Enter Cord Elliot, a trained professional whose mission is to keep Raine safe during the high‑stakes Summer Games. But from the moment their eyes meet, Cord’s presence feels more lethal to Raine’s heart than any sniper’s bullet. A passionate, forbidden romance develops, layered with intrigue, broken promises, and the constant threat of Cord’s dangerous profession. The story blends the thrill of equestrian sport with the suspense of military secrecy, all set against the backdrop of the Olympics, as Raine and Cord navigate a summer that could be remembered for love or lost to danger.
