Just for the Summer
Just for the Summer | Abby Jimenez
A sharp and scintillating summer novel that will make readers laugh out loud and cry happy tears from the New York Times bestselling author of Yours Truly. 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 others out, and theyll both go on to find the love of their lives. Its 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?

It‘s Indie Bookstore Day so I bought my next in-person-book-club pick (& some Swiftie pens) at my neighborhood shop, aka my Happy Place. 🥰

A great summery read of two people who are right for each other but seemingly meet at the wrong time in their lives. Emma and Justin plan to date and breakup but somewhere in the weeks of dating, they really connect. Justin is such a caring man whose love language is acts of kindness from bringing her lunch and caring for her when she is sick. I just loved him! This was my April #BOTM pick and it was a winner.

I love it when authors succeed in writing a stand-alone series where supporting characters in one book become the MC‘s of the next book. It doesn‘t matter to the current story if you‘ve read the previous books, but it‘s delightful Easter egg when the memory of current supporting character rushes back from its place in memories almost lost. I also love a rom-dramedy with meaningful issues.

Eggs Beautiful 😻 1w

This was an absolutely beautiful read. More than just a stereotypical rom-com, though it definitely was cute and funny. It was also absolutely heartbreaking at times as both main characters were dealing with tough family trauma. Both characters were written so well but Justin is everything. A top read of the year so far. 5⭐️

Just started this and I‘m already completely charmed by both characters. I‘ve been reading slower lately and this is just what I needed!

So so good! Could be read alone but filled with Easter eggs and nods to earlier AJ stories.

All.the.feels! 5⭐️

If you can‘t tell, I‘m a huge AJ fan. And Abby Jimenez will always be a pre-order, auto-buy author for me.

When it arrived on Thursday, I started reading it immediately & didn't get up again until I hit the last word on the last page. Emma and Justin might have edged out Sloan and Jason as my favorite.

On top of the amazing story, all the cameos! It's like a beautiful synergy of Abby-world, a place I wish I could live.

DebinHawaii Ahh! I can‘t wait for my #BOTM to arrive with this one! I 💛 her books so much! 3w
Julsmarshall I loved this one too. And I‘ll get to meet her next week! It will be in a professional situation so I‘m going to have to try to stay chill. It is going to be hard! 3w
wanderinglynn @DebinHawaii enjoy! It‘s a beautiful story. 3w

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Amazing ! Jimenez gets better and better! Every book of hers becomes my new favorite. Justin and Emma are both known for being the last person someone dates before finding their one true love. They meet online-if they date each other, will it break the curse? Both characters are dealing with a lot and finding their way to each other won‘t be easy. This book is filling with longing, laughter, & love-don‘t miss it! Releases 4/1 #netgalley
