The vacation ended. The heat didn't…
Meet Suzie Callaghan: French teacher, newly single, newly heartbroken. After an awful break-up, she heads to Mallorca for a much-needed holiday with her cousins, expecting sun, sangria, and siestas.
She isn't expecting to fall in love – especially not with the handsome Spaniard who rescues her when she gets separated from her group during an ill-judged midnight skinny dip.
But what starts as a steamy holiday romance built on white lies and mistaken identities turns into something more complicated when "Carlos" shows up at the school she works at.
Except his name isn't Carlos. It's Charlie Shaw, and he's the new Spanish teacher.
Now they're stuck in department meetings pretending they haven't seen each other naked, both feeling thoroughly duped, both wondering if that hot holiday fling can exist in real life? But when they're thrown together again on a school trip to Seville, the heat between them proves impossible to resist.
If you've ever wondered if that holiday romance could turn into something more, you'll love this laugh-out-loud romantic comedy sizzling with summer vibes. Perfect for fans of Emily Henry, Meghan Quinn and Beth O'Leary.
