The New York Times bestselling debut novel from critically acclaimed author Jodi Lynn Anderson follows three very different girls as they discover the secret to finding the right boy, making the truest of friends, and picking the perfect Georgia peach. Murphy McGowen has bright green eyes, a reputation as the wildest girl in Bridgewater, and a way of getting out of all the trouble she gets into. But when she's caught stealing from the Darlington Orchard, she's forced to repay her debt picking peaches in the hot Georgia sun. Leeda Cawley-Smith has professionally whitened teeth and the softest skin her boyfriend has ever touched. Unfortunately, Leeda's parents aren't too keen on her being touched anymore. Now Leeda's country-club summer is out the window—she'll be getting a serious sock tan working at her uncle's peach orchard instead. Birdie Darlington used to dance around her family's orchard picking peaches for fun. But now that her parents are getting divorced, Birdie would rather spend the summer in the A/C eating Thin Mints than pick another peach—too bad she doesn't have a choice. Thrown together at Darlington Orchard, Murphy, Leeda, and Birdie discover what it means to find a real soul mate, and that sometimes cute boys know a lot about peach cider. And, of course, they learn the trick to picking a perfect peach. One thing's for sure—it's going to be a juicy summer.

But when the Darlington family decides to leave peach trees for palm trees, Birdie gets a crash course in letting go—and learning when to hold on.

GraceIt doesn't have to be a best seller. It doesn't have to be something no one has ever read!So why am I making this so damn difficult?I need to focus.To push past the writer's block, the fear, the taunting rejection that they'll all think this new book of mine sucks a big dick! Am I allowed to say that?Screw it, because I just did, and it totally does, at least in my mind. I don't need distractions!Especially mouth-watering, panty-dropping, dirty talking, self-gratifying distractions.Distractions that cause my breath to catch, my thighs to clench, my center to quickly dampen, and my brain to scream only two self-gratifying words.Yes fucking please!OK, that was three!Never mind the fact that he's my new boss.Forget the idea that he corners me into a fake engagement - the first day we meet!Ignore the obvious evidence that I can't, for the life of me, stay away from Brettly Beckett!And what's more, I don't want to!And he doesn't make it easy!No, my lucky readers, he's not backing down without putting in some very hard-to-resist, self-pleasure seeking, efforts.Gifting me with the nickname Peaches, he makes it known he's dead set on claiming my peach the first chance he gets, and the sooner the better.But I quickly learn that's a development that could prove too self-destructive if we let it. After all, it's like they say, not everything in life can be as sweet as a peach.
