Do Taylor and Steven end up together in The Summer I Turned Pretty books?

Unfortunately, there are no answers about Taylor and Steven’s relationship in It’s Not Summer Without You. Unlike the show, Taylor and Steven have very minor roles in the book and we don’t see either of their romantic lives explored in depth. The show has also made some drastic differences to both characters to help flesh them out.

In the first book, Steven is present but he heads off to tour colleges shortly after arriving in Cousins. He’s far removed from any of the drama. In other words, his relationship with Shayla and his will-they-won’t-they relationship with Taylor were written specifically for the show.

As for Taylor, she and Belly have fallen out in the first book. She only appears in flashbacks and she upsets Belly by flirting with Conrad. In the second book, Belly is friends with Taylor again. However, Taylor doesn’t come to Cousins either by herself or with Steven. Taylor has a boyfriend at prom but he’s a minor character.

One other key difference in the book is that Jeremiah hates Taylor. By contrast, they get on well in the show and Taylor is desperate for Belly to date Jeremiah.

What do you think? Will Taylor and Steven end up together in the show?
