![]() Putting their mutual hatred aside for the sake of a free vacation, Olive and Ethan head for paradise, determined to avoid each other at all costs. And now there’s an all-expenses-paid honeymoon in Hawaii up for grabs. ![]() But when the entire wedding party gets food poisoning from eating bad shellfish, the only people who aren’t affected are Olive and Ethan.

Her identical twin sister Amelia, on the other hand, is probably the luckiest person in the world. ![]() ![]() ![]() Olive is always unlucky: in her career, in love, in…well, everything.
