A dreamy young adult romance where a teenager falls for the one boy who is off limits: the boy next door.
“It’s the novel’s tender, awkward, sexy, dizzy-happy portrayal of first love that really makes it soar.”—The Horn Book
“An almost perfect summer romance [that] will have every girl who reads the novel wishing for a Jase of her own.”—Kirkus Reviews
Which way do you turn when your heart pulls you two ways?
The Garretts are everything the Reeds are not. Loud, numerous, messy, affectionate. And every day from her rooftop perch, seventeen-year-old Samantha Reed wishes she were one of them . . . and then one summer evening, Jase Garrett climbs her trellis and changes everything. As the two fall fiercely in love, Jase’s family embraces Samantha, even as she keeps him a secret from her own. Then, in an instant, her two worlds collide in an unthinkable tragedy that leaves Samantha reeling and forced to make an impossible decision—one that no one could have seen coming. A dreamy, enthralling summer read, full of romance and characters who stay with you long after the last page.
