The Book of Luke

From the bestselling author of Plan B comes a funny and touching new novel about a girl, a boy, and a notebook that could ruin everything.

Her parents have decided to move the family from Chicago back to their hometown of Boston in the middle of Emily’s senior year. Only Emily’s first real boyfriend, Sean, is in Chicago, and so is her shot at class valedictorian and early admission to the Ivy League. What’s a nice girl to do?

Rich Boys

There are two kinds of people on the island -- those who leave at summer's end...and those who are left behind. For seventeen-year-old Winnie, summer can't arrive fast enough -- anything to get out of the house and escape the cold war brewing between her parents. With her older sister, Shelby, spending the summer in Boston, Winnie's left to deal with the situation all by herself. Which is why she's happy to spend all day away from home at a cushy job -- camp counselor at the prestigious Oceanview Inn.

The Next Chapter of Luke

After a senior year filled with ups and downs and a notebook that almost cost her everything she cared about most, life has finally fallen into place for Emily Abbott. With graduation behind her and college acceptance a certainty, Emily is looking forward to a perfectly predictable summer. Her plans for a cushy job on Cape Cod with best friends Josie and Lucy, and time to finally enjoy a normal relationship with Luke, are just what she needs. But when her mom springs a surprise on her and an accident upends Luke's plans, the summer ahead brings changes that Emily couldn't have possibly prepared for or predicted. As the warm weather wanes and college looms in the future, Emily is faced with choices that no handbook can help her navigate. And she's about to learn that the consequences of her decisions will not only tear apart the relationships she's worked so hard to get right, they'll also test whether true love is about holding on or knowing when to say goodbye.
