Summer Lovin' is a funny, down-to-earth story with sharp, witty characters that pulled me in right away. Ms. Cummings conjured up, Mia and Luke; two overworked people in need of some downtime. Mia is an office manager who decides to take a couple of weeks to chill out. She agrees to babysit her friends dog while they go on their honeymoon. Luke is a top-notch chef and restaurant owner who takes time off to rejuvenate too. Their paths cross when the sweet puppy, who is actually a shoe-chewing terror, causes Mia to break Luke's headlight. The chemistry between Mia and Luke is immediate and off-the charts. Mia is not looking for serious attachment and thinks she can handle a fling. Luke also deludes himself by thinking he can have two weeks with the lovely Mia and then go back to his hectic life. Without giving too much away, they're both wrong. Ms. Cummings has a knack for storytelling that kept me turning the page.
