When Flo’s family decides to take a summer vacation in Greece, she is excited for the break and grateful for the time to renew herself in both body and mind. What Flo does not expect is for Jamie Kramer, her brother’s best friend (and her crush who humiliatingly rejected her in the past), to show up as an unexpected guest on the trip. She is forced to figure out how to manage being stuck with this most irritating, arrogant, and undeniably gorgeous man whom she now detests. Avoiding him doesn’t work out, with all the family outings, dinners, and close quarters, so Flo decides the best cure for unrequited love is exposure therapy. Getting to really know Jamie will surely snap her out of her lingering, unwanted crush—right?
VERDICT With a delightful mix of comedy, loathing, attraction, and seduction, Williams (Just for December) offers an entertaining and engaging romance and endearing characters. Highly recommended for readers who appreciate contemporary romances with second chances, overbearing families, and secret crushes.
