A gorgeous debut about family, friendship, first romance, and how to be true to one person you love without betraying another.
“One thing my mother never knew, and would disapprove of most of all, was that I watched the Garretts. All the time."
The Garretts are everything the Reeds are not. Loud, numerous, messy, affectionate. And every day from her balcony perch, seventeen-year-old Samantha Reed wishes she was one of them . . . until one summer evening, Jase Garrett climbs her terrace and changes everything. As the two fall fiercely in love, Jase's family makes Samantha one of their own. Then in an instant, the bottom drops out of her world and she is suddenly faced with an impossible decision. Which perfect family will save her? Or is it time she saved herself?
A dreamy summer read, full of characters who stay with you long after the story is over.

My teaser:
"Should I be worried?"
I look up at him, my thoughts scattered. "About what?"
"The fact that you're apparently the one girl on the planet who doesn't tell her best friend everything the moment it happens. I have sisters, Sam. I thought that was a rule--the best friend knows all. Yours didn't even know I existed." -- p. 173 of galley
Ouch! I doubt she's not telling people about their relationship because she's ashamed, though...
Leave your Tuesday Teaser in the comments so I can stop by!
Awww poor guy! I think it might be she doesn't want someone running off with him ! Great teaser.

I can't wait to read this one! I heard it was really good. The teaser has me interested now. What is wrong with their relationship? My Teaser is from Shadows Gray. It's funny banter between two main characters.
