Larissa Bogdan was supposed to spend her summer babysitting and bookselling. Instead, she tagged along with her mom to the Outer Banks, working on her tan and making new friends. Now she's back and starting her senior year at Stratford High, only to face another unexpected turn: She's finally attracted the attention of superstar quarterback Chase Harding, the guy she's crushed on since middle school. Then Jasmine Killary shows up. Jasmine, who's supposed to be in North Carolina, not the New York City suburbs. Jasmine, who immediately entices Stratford's student body with her glittering beauty and casual-cool style. Jasmine, who gave Larissa the three most perfect months of her life. But now Jasmine's keeping her distance, not even acknowledging their friendship, much less the hot summer nights they spent together. Larissa knows she should be glad to bury their secret, but she also knows she never felt more comfortable, more confident, more herself than when she was with Jasmine. What was supposed to be a playful fling became something much deeper than she ever could have imagined. If Larissa's finally got the guy, why can't she stop thinking about the girl?

Didn't Capture My Interest submitted by Maria Maguire on July 25, 2023, 7:11pm I actually almost stopped reading about a quarter of the way through. It found itself near the end, but I never really liked the characters. I think it would have better if we'd seen more of Lara and Jasmine's relationship at the beginning, rather than learning it all in flashbacks.
