Elizabeth
Margaret—better known as Em—has always known what life would contain: an
internship at her father’s firm, a degree from Harvard and a career as a
lawyer. The only problem is that it’s not what she wants. When she gets
the opportunity to get away from it all and spend a month with the aunt
she never knew, she jumps at the chance. While there, Em pursues her
secret dream of being a chef, and she also learns that her family has
kept some significant secrets from her, too. And then there’s Cade, the
laid-back local surfer boy who seems to be everything Em isn't.
Naturally, she can’t resist him, and as their romance blossoms, Em feels
she is living on her own terms for the first time. (Cover and description courtsey of Goodreads)

PC?! NOOOOOOOO! Mac all the way:) I actually don't care all that much, it's just a standing debate with my husband who is a PC lover. I argue with him just for the sake of argument:) And I agree on Pauly Shore!
"Hot with an ocean breeze" Perfect answer! This book sounds like the perfect summer read! And I loved the This or That!
I don't like popcorn very much, but if I'm going to have it, sweet mix ins are definitely the way to go. Love reeses!
Aaaah! I wish I could be on island time, all the time. But at least I do get to make flipflops my usual footwear.
Reeses mixed with popcorn is the best!
Fun times, Em. Thanks!
I like my sweet treats and salty treats to be kept separate. Lol, I'll even use different plates for things. Then again, I'm weird like that :)
That's probably one of the most interesting This or That's I've read! Especially actors and martial arts actors! Too funny!
