Just for the Summer follows Justin and Emma, two people convinced they’re each cursed: every ex they’ve had goes on to meet “the one” right after dating them. When they connect online and realize they share the same pattern, they decide the obvious solution is to date each other, cancel out their bad luck, and walk away.
Of course, real feelings have other plans. As life throws unexpected challenges their way, their arrangement grows complicated and deeply heartfelt. Part of Jimenez’s interconnected series, it blends humor, emotion, and serious real-life issues in her signature style.
