Abby Jimenez’s "Just for Summer" is a charming, heartwarming romance perfect for summer reading. The story follows Maggie and Hunter, two people who meet under unexpected circumstances and find an undeniable connection despite their personal struggles. With humor, emotional depth, and a gorgeous setting, Jimenez delivers a sweet, feel-good escape.

The chemistry between Maggie and Hunter is authentic, and their character growth is beautiful to witness. Jimenez’s writing strikes the right balance between humor and emotion, making the pacing feel effortless. The summer setting adds an extra layer of nostalgia, making you wish you were there with them. 🌞

A memorable quote from the book is:
"Sometimes the best things in life happen when you least expect them, and that’s okay." ✨💛

While the romance does follow familiar tropes and feels a bit predictable at times, it’s still an enjoyable read full of heart. If you’re looking for a light, emotional romance that will leave you smiling, Just for Summer is definitely worth the read! ☀️📖💕
