That is, until she meets Gavin, the camp’s sailing instructor, who turns her expectations upside down. Gavin may have gotten the job just for his abs. Or that smile. Or the way he fills Sam’s free time with thrilling encounters—swimming under a cascade of stars, whispering secrets over s’mores, embarking on one (very precarious) canoe ride after dark.
It’s absurd. After all, Sam loves Eli. But one totally absurd, completely off-the-wall summer may be just what Sam needs. And maybe, just maybe, it will teach her something about what she really wants.

My Review: This one wasn't as good as I was hoping for. There were actions that the characters did but they had no consequences. The main character felt very immature for her age. And all the cheating made me want to scream and shut down this camp. I have to say thinking about this book overall it just wasn't all that good.
