Katelyn Watson had never as much stepped a toe out of line her entire life; yet in the past two months, her mother has picked her up from a hospital, she lied about where she was and one night, she didn't even come home. She blames him. It is the day after high school graduation and Katie has one thing on her mind: getting the heck out of New Jersey. That is... until she meets him. Joshua Parker steps into view under the Ferris Wheel at the boardwalk and one look at him has Katie's brain misfiring. The summer days fall into nights with Josh. Katie is soon discovering teenage experiences she's been missing out on with her nose stuck in a book. The more time Katie spends with Josh, the more she begins to question everything she knows about love... and who she's meant to be. The path of Katie's future has been perfectly paved since she was seven. But, she soon craves a new one: one with a boy she just met but cannot live without. The soon-to-be English major is standing at a crossroads, examining everything she's learned about her beloved Shakespearean theatre. Do you ever get a second chance at true love? The events of that summer will decide.
