About the book
This clever romantic comedy with a slow burn is described as the "perfect beach read" by Elle. Justin is plagued by a curse that has become widely known thanks to a Reddit thread. Every woman he dates inevitably finds their soulmate immediately after they break up. When a woman reaches out to him online with the same curse, they devise a plan: they will date each other and then break up. They believe that their curses will cancel each other out, allowing them both to move on and find true love. It's a crazy idea... but it just might work.
Emma never expected her next nursing assignment would be in Minnesota, but she and her best friend agree that dating Justin is an opportunity too good to pass up, especially when they have the chance to stay in a charming cottage on a private island on Lake Minnetonka.
Their relationship was meant to be a summer fling, but things take an unexpected turn when Emma's difficult mother shows up and Justin suddenly becomes responsible for his three younger siblings. They find themselves dealing with far more than they bargained for, including developing genuine feelings for each other. Could it be that Fate has truly brought them together as the perfect match?
Harper's Bazaar has named this novel as one of the Top 10 Best Summer Romance Books of All Time!
