Luke is the perfect boyfriend: handsome, kind, fun. He and
Emaline have been together all through high school in Colby,
the beach town where they both grew up. But now, in the
summer before college, Emaline wonders if perfect is good
enough.
Enter Theo, a super-ambitious outsider, a
New Yorker assisting on a documentary film about a reclusive
local artist. Theo's sophisticated, exciting, and, best of
all, he thinks Emaline is much too smart for Colby.
Emaline's mostly-absentee father, too, thinks Emaline should
have a bigger life, and he's convinced that an Ivy League
education is the only route to realizing her potential.
Emaline is attracted to the bright future that Theo and her
father promise. But she also clings to the deep roots of her
loving mother, stepfather, and sisters. Can she ignore the
pull of the happily familiar world of Colby?
Emaline wants the moon and more, but how can she balance
where she comes from with where she's going?
Sarah
Dessen's devoted fans will welcome this story of romance,
yearning, and, finally, empowerment. It could only happen in
the summer.
