Perfect beaches. Sparkling sea views. Warm summer nights. This should be the perfect summer vacation.

Not for Ana Merrick, who is already at the end of her rope—and possibly her teaching career—when she arrives in Greece for her dreaded annual family vacation. How is she supposed to survive yet another summer sharing a fence with Thanos Roussos, the guy who once used her bra as a slingshot?

Unfortunately, this summer won’t give Ana the option of keeping her distance from her alarmingly attractive nemesis.

When Ana’s big, fat Greek family volunteers her for what appears to be the perfect summer job—teaching English to summer school students—she’s horrified to discover it’s a two-person project. And here is Thanos Roussos, middle school PE teacher, conveniently ready and able to swoop in and wrangle teenagers alongside Ana. They’ll be breathing the same air. Inhaling the same eye-watering BO and cologne. Begging their students to put down their phones with the same exasperated tone. And they’ll have do it while fighting their natural urge to strangle each other, figuratively speaking. Won’t they?

Maybe not. Thanos is different this summer. The way he looks at her makes her almost believe that this leopard has changed his spots. Before long, teaching alongside her sworn enemy is fast becoming the most fun she’s ever during a scorching Greek summer. And yet hanging over her head is the possibility that their forbidden attraction might be nothing more than another one of Thanos’s pranks.

The Summer War is a clean romantic comedy with a touch of steam and some mild language. This enemies-to-lovers romcom is packed with laugh-out-loud banter, kooky Greek families, and a whole lot of heart.
