About this listen

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?

*fans face to hold back tears of joy*

If I am ever single again, I’m searching out Justin. He is the most amazing fictional boyfriend of all time. He gets me. He sends surveys and email invitations to Emma to make sure their dates are perfect. He cuddles his three year old sister and is teaching his teen brother to drive. *swoon*

Emma is a deeply flawed yet equally wonderful character. As someone who deals with mental illness, I found the author’s portrayal of her to be spot-on, and deeply empathetic.

I have already listened to this book twice. It’s just that good.

A great Love Story

I love all of Abbey's stories. This book had me in tears. Abbey's writing has a way of connecting you to the characters and feeling all their emotions. I love the MC POV and female POV stories. It gives you all sides of the story and a better understanding of each character. Bravo!!!!

Another Great.

Abby Jimenez does such an amazing job of incorporating mental health and the different ways that people deal in all of her books. Just For The Summer is another example of how a good author can tell a fictional story about real life situations. You laugh, you cry, and you feel what these characters are going through. I have read all of her books and I love how she connects them with small easter eggs, but they can also be stand alone books. Such a great book!!

Wayyyy too much Amber!

I really HATED her in Part of Your World, so I was caught off guard that she played such a huge part in this book. It really killed it for me. I'm a huge AJ fan and her releases are instant buys for me, but this one will be a one time listen. I've listened to the rest of her work an embarrassing number of times, just won't be able to do that with this one. I'm glad I got the Target exclusive for the bonus chapter on Doug. I'm super happy he got his HEA.

Love at first sight but not easy

The real life issues that Abby Jimenez writes with make her books so easy and satisfying to read. Her characters are funny and broken and can be your best friends. Zachary Webber voices the MMC, Justin with the most delicate but deliberate feelings. He makes you feel all the emotions Justin is experiencing with love and grace. Christine Lakin is believable in how she deals with her trauma and draws you in. Thank yoy Abby.

Abby hits it out of the park again!

Abby knows romance, and tells it with heat, but in a way that can still be read (or listened to) in public.

Abby never Dissapoints!!!

The only negative here is the fact that I will have to wait...I don't know how long for another AJ book.
I would actually relate to this story because I had a difficult childhood similar to this and my past relationships were affected by it. Until I also found my forever Love that understood me .
I loved the narrators, the story, 10/10 recommend!

Good from start to finish!

Abby knows how to write a good love story that captivates you with true-life characters, realistic story lines, wit, humor, and butterfly generating dialogue. I was so excited to pick this new book up and it did not disappoint and the tie in to characters from previous books -chefs kiss! So so so so good!!!
