A summer to remember...

Angie always thought high school romances were just silly infatuations that come and go. She certainly never thought she would fall in love over one short summer. But then she sees Jack Duluth's crew cut peek out over a booth in McKnight's drugstore, and their connection is beyond any childish crush. Suddenly, Angie and Jack are filling their summer with stolen moments and romantic nights. But as fall grows closer, they must figure out if their love is forever or just a summer they'll never forget.

      In the summer between high school and college, 17-year-old Angie falls in love for the first time with local boy Jack Duluth. Their summer romance blossoms, but separation looms. In the fall, Jack’s family will move out of state and Angie will leave for college. Julia Whelan’s narration hits all the right notes. Her rendition of Angie perfectly conveys the innocence, naïveté, yearning, anxiety, and rapture of a young girl discovering love for the first time. She is equally adept at capturing Jack, with his deeper voice, humble honesty, and “aw-shucks” country twang. Whelan also ably responds to directions in the text, e.g., when Angie’s sister is described as speaking in a falsely bright, overly casual voice, Whelan nails her tone exactly. This audio is as breezy, touching, and enjoyable as a summer romance. Ages 12–up. A Simon Pulse paperback.
