Part 5 of Summer Flings – a fun, flirty and laugh out loud rom com series of short stories.

After their not-so-relaxing week in the sun, the girls are off to the clubbing capitol of the world to let off some steam.

Skater boys, Ibiza’s Next Top Model competition and skimpy gold bikini’s don’t compare to the man Ciara’s desperate to cheer up. She’s beginning to realize her summer fling isn’t as uncomplicated as it should be.

To make things worse, she finds out that her best friends are keeping secrets from her that could change everything…

The ideal summer treat for those relaxing days soaking up the sun!

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. Ibiza Insanity had plenty of fun, flirting and secret-keeping to make this the ideal summer read.

With Ciara missing Greece and Gem missing her fling, it’s down to Elle to try and lift their spirits and her personality definitely comes out a lot more in Ibiza. I’ve liked Elle a lot more as this series has gone on because she’s a lot of fun and though not short of male admirers, things came across a little differently for her in Ibiza and I enjoyed seeing Elle involved a lot more here. The supporting characters are just as interesting to read as the main story involving Ciara and I think Aimee does a great job at balancing the plot out so Elle and Gem are involved plenty but we still focus on Ciara and how things are working out for her.

Ciara, back from all the fun (sex) she had in Greece, is brought a little back down to earth in Ibiza as she’s faced with the challenge of cheering Zack up. We get to see another new side to Ciara here and she shows she can get more than a little feisty. I loved reading the new dynamics between Ciara and Zack and you just have to read to see how things unfold but it has completely left me in anticipation of book six, Flirting in Florence. Ibiza Insanity felt like the most well-rounded Summer Flings story so far with Aimee combining some laughs, friendship, sex and the odd twist faultlessly. This was a brilliant instalment to the series and I can’t wait to see what happens next in Florence!
