Amanda asked this question about Just for the Summer (Part of Your World, #3):
In the Q&A with the author she talks about the Easter eggs and mentions “a deeply buried one that takes us back to her first book”. Did anyone catch that?
Lori Eason So I guess my answer depends on which book you consider as her first...

The Friend Zone was published first; however, at the end of her second book, Ha…more
So I guess my answer depends on which book you consider as her first...

The Friend Zone was published first; however, at the end of her second book, Happily Ever After Playlist, she tells us that she actually wrote that one first. So the Easter eggs? Couple of guesses (although they could simply be coincidences and/or me reading too much into nothing):

In the Friend Zone - Jiminez refers to Kristen as a "unicorn" (something about being no drama, likes beer, didn't care what people think about her). To me, this parallels the unicorn imagery in Just for the Summer - kind of funny but also no nonsense.

As for HEA Playlist - Jason mentions Sloan moving slowly, saying it's "just a season" but that there is beauty in all seasons, even if you're waiting for the next one. This reminded me so much of the seasonality talk in JFTS and how Justin was willing to wait "as long as it took."(less)

Vida Olivares There’s also mention of someone cooking a recipe out of the Sloan Monroe cookbook.
