You might try one of John D. MacDonald's Travis McGee novels. They always remind me of summer.
(And, if you're a Parrothead, you should know that Jimmy Buffett is a great admirer of MacDonald, and mentions McGee in the song "Incommunicado.")

For perfect summer type reading, you can't go wrong with Lee Child, James Rollins, Nelson DeMille, Vince Flynn and/or Harlan Coben.

Just wanted to say thanks for the recommendation. I'm really enjoying this series.

I love anything by Patricia Highsmith. She wrote "The Talented Mr. Ripley" and all that are included in the series. She also wrote "Strangers on a Train." Anyway, all of her work reads quickly and is very engaging.
