Synopsis

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 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?

Goodreads review by Cheryl on June 27, 2018

Not the best of books, a little shallow I felt. The story follows 3 families who have summer homes in Cornwall, at times it was rather like being a voyeur looking in on the lives of these people, and watching them fall apart and come back together again more or less in the space of one summer. Unfor......more

Oh my what a delightful trainwreck If you love Brit Lit then this is a must read. Three families who own summer homes in a beautiful seaside village sounds quaint and lovely right?

This book is a real favourite of mine and even though it’s not new, I felt it deserved a mention, especially now Christmas is past and we start wondering about where our summer holiday will take us this year. I have both the paperback version, well read, and very dog-eared, and as it’s almost fallen......more

Goodreads review by Redfox5 on July 01, 2015

You know when you read a really awful book *cough* The Shakespeare Secret *cough* and then you just read some fluff and it's more amazing that you could have thought it would be. The people in this book are people I'm not fond of, middle class people buying second homes that make it impossible for a......more
