"This was supposed to be my best summer yet, the one I’ve
been working toward since practically forever. Now I’m
being banished from everything I know and love, and it
just doesn’t make any sense."
Having recently
discarded her dorky image--and the best friend that went
with it--Colby Cavendish is looking forward to a long hot
season of parties, beach BBQ’s, and hopefully, more hook-
ups with Levi Bonham, the hottest guy in school. But her
world comes crashing down when her parents send her away
to spend the summer in Greece with her crazy aunt
Tally.
Stranded on a boring island with no malls, no
cell phone reception, and an aunt who talks to her plants,
Colby worries that her new friends have forgotten all
about her. But when she meets Yannis, a cute Greek local,
everything changes. She experiences something deeper and
more intense than a summer fling, and it forces her to see
herself, and the life she left behind, in a whole new
way.
