Just for the Summer

De: Abby Jimenez

Narrado por: Christine Lakin, Zachary Webber, Abby Jimenez

A sharp and scintillating summer novel that will make listeners 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 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?

Another phenomenal story

6/5 stars. Abby is such an amazing writer and I LOVED all the Easter eggs from Part of your World & Yours Truly. If you haven’t read those, go read them before reading this one! I love when series interconnect. Thank you Abby for another amazing listen.

Loved Abby again!

Such a good read. It includes an incredibly sensitive handling of abandonment issues and trauma!

You won’t regret listing to this!

Loved this story! Not your typical love story, which made it so good. Definitely worth listening to!

Cute story!

Such a good story! Loved the story and the characters. Wanted more story but ended well.

It made me cry in the best way.

This book packs an emotional wallop. Be prepared for the difficult themes that she tackles in this book, she has a list of trigger warnings in the beginning. Speaking for myself though, this book was so very worth it. Finely crafted story with some of my favorite romantic tropes: found family, forced proximity and the male main character as a strong, masculine love interest who is also a responsible adult who takes care of those around him. It was funny, and tender, poignant and sexy. In short, it is one of my favorite books this year.
The narration was excellent. Audiobook narrators can sometimes enhance the experience or take away from the story. I was happy to find out that, for me anyway, it was the former rather than the latter.
Thank you Abby for writing this. It brought me joy.

Five stars

This book is amazing. I laughed out loud and I cried. Just know there is an HEA. The narration is the best I’ve ever listened to. It’s an amazing performance. Now, I’m going to look for more by this author. Enjoy!

A great read!

I enjoyed the journey. It was painful, joyful and in many ways relatable. I highly recommend you take the journey!

Great voice acting! Another fun rom com by Abby Jimenez. I hope Hallmark make her stories into a movie series someday.

I really love the voice actors. They do such a great job that it takes this book to another level. Such a perfect little rom com with just the right balance of joy and sorrows. Loved it!

Abby does it again!

Abby Jimenez does it again! Emma and Justin are the best human beings… I felt so attached to their stories.

Enjoy

I enjoyed this book. It covered PTSD in a somewhat real format. It was different, and I appreciated Abby taking on this difficult subject.
