Annotation "Harriet and Wyn have been the perfect couple since they met in college -- they go together like salt and pepper, honey and tea, lobster and rolls. Except, now -- for reasons they're still not discussing -- they don't. They broke up five months ago. And still haven't told their best friends. Which is how they find themselves sharing a bedroom at the Maine cottage that has been their friend group's yearly getaway for the last decade. Their annual respite from the world, where for one vibrant, blissful week they leave behind their daily lives; have copious amounts of cheese, wine, and seafood; and soak up the salty coastal air with the people who understand them most. Only this year, Harriet and Wyn are lying through their teeth while trying not to notice how desperately they still want each other. Because the cottage is for sale and this is the last week they'll all have together in this place. They can't stand to break their friends' hearts, and so they'll play their parts. Harriet will be the driven surgical resident who never starts a fight, and Wyn will be the laid-back charmer who never lets the cracks show. It's a flawless plan (if you look at it from a great distance and through a pair of sunscreen-smeared sunglasses). After years of being in love, how hard can it be to fake it for one week...in front of those who know you best?" -- Provided by publisher. -- Strong language and some explicit descriptions of sex. Spanish language.
"Harriet y Wyn han sido la pareja perfecta desde que se conocieron de adolescentes. Son complementarios como la sal y la pimienta, el té y el limón, el aceite y el vinagre. Solo que ahora, por razones de las que todavía no hablan, ya no lo son. Rompieron hace cinco meses y todavía no se lo han dicho a sus mejores amigos. Por eso acaban compartiendo habitación en la casa de verano donde, desde hace una década, hacen una escapada al año todos juntos. En el transcurso de una semana luminosa y animada, se evaden del mundo, dejan atrás los problemas de la vida cotidiana, toman cantidades desmedidas de queso, vino y marisco, y se impregnan del salitre de la costa rodeados de las personas que mejor los entienden. Pero este año, Harriet y Wyn están mintiendo a conciencia mientras intentan ignorar lo mucho que todavía se quieren. Porque la casa está en venta, y esta es la última semana que podrán pasar allí. No quieren romperles el corazón a sus amigos contándoles la verdad, así que fingen que todo sigue igual. Harriet seguirá siendo la entusiasta residente de cirugía que nunca empieza una discusión, y Wyn el chico encantador y relajado que no deja que sus problemas trasciendan. Es un plan aparentemente impecable. Tras años enamorados, no debería ser difícil fingir ante las personas que mejor los conocen... ¿verdad?" -- Proporcionada por la editorial. -- Traducido de la edición en inglés de 2023. Contiene lenguaje ofensivo y algunas descripciones explícitas de índole sexual.
