The story of Julia. When she attends her neighbours party and her neighbour sees texts that have been exchanged between Julia and her friend regarding the neighbours husband, she sends them to everyone in the group who are also at the party, not to mention Julia’s husband. Amber who, I her way to France sees Julia sitting outside en-route by some shops on her street and sees Lexi and her friends going over to her to have a go at her, shouts to Julia through an open window to come and jump into her van.  From here starts an adventure between the two. 
Along the way, they come across trouble with the police, bump into Amber’s ex(Lovejoy) her son rings to know who his real dad is, as well as hear some truths from each other about the other. Julia also, starts to see what her issues may be and starts to see things clearly. Her husband turns up to surprise her . 
Upon returning home, things change, and Amber and Lovejoy start their own business back in France. Thoroughly enjoyed it.

The summer we ran away is a story about two adults who basically go to Italy and find escape from their lives. Amber is trying not to tell her son who his real parents are and Lexi is running away from an extremely embarrassing encounter. Where she is publicly humiliated by someone who she believed was her friend to the whole street that she lives in. Causing strife between Lexi and her husband. It also shows that you can't believe social media and the people who make their lives look so perfect. Because usually they aren't like that and they have secrets they are trying to hide. It is an adventure in France with a good storyline and some great characters.
