When I saw the title I laughed and tried to imagine what exploits they could be getting up to!! This series is consistently brilliant and so well written. I love how each part of the series unwraps another aspect of the characters and who they really are. I am loving seeing them develop and wish I had gone to uni, made friends like them, and gone off travelling" Jill Loves to Read "I love Aimee Duffy's Summer Flings series more and more with each new novella. I said the same about Point Us to Paris but Ibiza Insanity was absolutely my favourite! This had everything I wanted to see and really developed the plot and characters further to the point where with only two novellas left, I've no idea how things are going to work out" Reviewed the Book "These books are fun, flirty and full of graphic and very hot sex that would get a Nun going ...
