📘 The Last Great Summer by Carol Stanley

Five friends are looking forward to their last summer before college. A summer of dreams, of memories, of love... Caitlin is falling in love - but the poor little rich girl is head over heels with Dom, the sexy guy from the wrong side of town. For Jenny the summer should have been perfect. She has a bright future and a gorgeous boyfriend. But then the unthinkable happens... Patti wants the summer to last forever - before her friends leave her behind with sad memories... And for Leah it is a time of discovery - does she love sexy Greg, or dependable Danny? It's their last great summer, a time of love, of pain, and of memories that will last forever...
