Making a Splash by Jade Parker #1 and #2 - ADVISABLE

Parker, Jade Making a Splash: Robyn (256 p.) and Caitlin (240 p.). Scholastic, 2008.

MS - ADVISABLE

Best friends Robyn and Caitlyn have secured jobs at their favorite hangout spot - the local waterpark. Caitlyn has the hot job, watching the wave pool with all its bronzed bodies, while Robyn is stuck watching the kiddie pool and babysitting the new girl, Whitney, whose only dedication to work is to work on her tan. And Caitlyn's supervisor is Sean, Robyn's older brother - who, until this year, has always just been there. But now, suddenly, Caitlyn is beginning to see him in a too too new light.

In #2, Robyn has been burned once already by a summer romance. Now handsome Michael Romeo is in the picture, but so is Jasmine, Robyn's original rival. Circumstances keep throwing them together, but Robyn keeps trying to resist. If you have a need for light summer fun, this trilogy (Whitney's story is forthcoming) perfectly fits the bill. As sweet and safe as you could possibly ask for!
