Book name: Just For The Summer

Author: Abby Jimenez

Genre: Romance

My rating: 5 ⭐️

My review: I have no words but also so many words for this book. It is my new personality trait at this point. Emma and Justin are the most lovable characters but Justin…. BOOK BOYFRIEND. “If he wanted to he would.” An acts of service KING.

While the plot is silly and adorable it has such real topics that people go through. Mental health, PTSD, attachment style, and therapy is discussed heavily with our FMC. Gosh I’d kill to read this for the first time again.
