64 | Fake Dating, Real Emotions: Just For The Summer by Abby Jimenez
Description
Meg and Nikki tackle Just for the Summer by Abby Jimenez and the book club is in session! They’re breaking down all the sandy, swoony, and slightly chaotic details of this “one summer only” love story.
There’s fake dating, complicated exes, secret emotions, and exactly the kind of drama you'd expect from a romance that promises to be temporary.
Listen in for:
* Parental trauma, lake house love, and good dog content
* Nikki’s obvious love of pre-date questionnaires
* The emotional arc of Justin and Emma (and why they’re both too competent for this trope)
* Why we LOVE to see a solid “if he wanted to, he would”
Books & Media We Mention
* Just for the Summer by Abby Jimenez
* Part of Your World by Abby Jimenez
* Yours Truly by Abby Jimenez
* The Friend Zone by Abby Jimenez
* Good Luck Chuck (film)
