YA Contemporary: Where The Water Falls
They say high school is a moment in life when you get to experience so many things for the first time. Your first kiss. Your first love. Your first time. And for seventeen-year-old Sloane McIntyre, her junior year was all those moments, and then some. But the first time she hears her best friend admit she slept with her boyfriend – twice – and oh, the condom must’ve broke, Sloane experiences a first she never expected: heartbreak.
It’s a good thing she’s on the next plane with her twin brother, Penn, to visit her mom for the summer in Honolulu – the same thing she’s always done for the past seven summers since her parents divorced and her mom moved back home to the Islands. But escaping to Hawaii only changes the scenery; it doesn’t change the pain of heartache and betrayal.
Enter Finn McGowen, the sexy new guy that moved to town just after she left the summer before. He’s reserved, but with a large dose of cocky thrown in just for good measure, and when their first introduction consists of her throwing up on him during a game of chicken, the last thing she expects is for him to stick around. Turns out, while she might be heartbroken and damaged, he’s equally troubled and alone – and that just might be the exact combination the both of them need. It may take the summer to find out…but if it’s anything like the first night they met, well, it’s bound to be full of the unexpected.
