Just for the Summer

Instant #1 New York Times bestseller and a Good Morning America Book Club Pick!
This witty, slow-burn rom-com is the "ideal beach read." --Elle

Justin has a curse, and thanks to a Reddit thread, it's now all over the internet. Every woman he dates goes on to find their soul mate the second they break up. When a woman slides into his DMs with the same problem, they come up with a plan: They'll date each other and break up. Their curses will cancel each other's out, and they'll both go on to find the love of their lives. It's a bonkers idea... and it just might work.

Emma hadn't planned that her next assignment as a traveling nurse would be in Minnesota, but she and her best friend agree that dating Justin is too good of an opportunity to pass up, especially when they get to rent an adorable cottage on a private island on Lake Minnetonka.

It's supposed to be a quick fling, just for the summer. But when Emma's toxic mother shows up and Justin has to assume guardianship of his three siblings, they're suddenly navigating a lot more than they expected--including catching real feelings for each other. What if this time Fate has actually brought the perfect pair together?

I freaking ADORED this book! I completely understand all the hype with Abby Jimenez and these books now and I cannot say enough good things. Please Keep in mind this book does touch on a lot of serious mental Health subjects so proceed how you see fit. The online meet cute was a new one for me and I loved it. Justin is literally the sweetest, kindest, most caring and just overall cutest guy ever - absolutely a new book boyfriend for sure. Emma was a likable and realistic character as well and I enjoyed how although she had a lot to work through, she wasn’t pushing Justin away the whole time. There were so many moments I found myself with a big cheesy smile on my face while reading this one. I had said I was going to take a break from romances for a little but I had to wrap up this series and I am so glad I did! such a sweet story and I loved the connections with the previous two books! Although they can each be read on their own I highly recommend reading in order because of all the little things that come up that make reading this one so much better.

Very slow start, cute, but not as good as it was hyped up to be
