Emma reads a Reddit post by Justin about how they are both "cursed" with being the relationship before their exes find "The One." They connect and find themselves in the same city, but just for the summer. They make a plan to do an experiment: to date each other, so that the next person they meet will be their soulmate.

This book is totally worth all the hype. I've loved every book in this series, but I think that I fell for Justin the hardest. This shows that dating can be intentional even in the chaos of everyday life and how love sometimes grows unexpectedly.

I would definitely recommend reading the trigger warnings for this book. I appreciated the authenticity & complicated feelings that came with the extended families in this book. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who loves a great romance!
