Paul, Riley, and Alice grew up together through summers spent at Fire Island. While Riley and Alice's family seems perfectly happy, Paul's dad died of a drug overdose and his mom is just absent. All he has is a huge fortune left to him by his father which his Grandparents are constantly fretting over.
Enter Riley and Alice. The pair of sisters that are as different as night and day. Riley is a tomboy and only wants to spend her time outside and never grow up. Alice is the younger, beautiful, but always tag-along sister. She spends her life trying to keep up with Riley and Paul and never feeling like she's quite doing it.
This synopsis doesn't do this story justice. The relationship between the three characters is so special and touching. This is a perfect summer read. I was happy to read that Warner has bought the rights to the book for a movie!!! I can absolutely see this one on the big screen. I could actually read this one again...now!
