who the voices are? After landing a job
at Sandstone Mountain, Drake starts developing feeling s for his boss’
daughter. Soon, he’s asked to leaven when the girl falls mysteriously ill. Can
Drake find out what is causing her illness? One hot summer day, Dylan meets
Maura, a girl in distress. She claims she was just having trouble with the heat,
but appears to be hiding something. Dylan starts to have feelings for her and
starts dating her, but he, too, has secrets. Will they be able to open up and
have a good relationship?
A slow-moving book. The stories are
cute, but too short to truly enjoy them to their fullest. The characters are
likable, but not that well-developed. Still, readers who like cutesy romances,
Lurlene McDaniel books, and romantic mysteries might like this book. MS, HS.
