Companion to Catching Jordan and Stealing Parker.

Kate has always been the good girl. Too good, according to some people at school—although they have no idea the guilty secret she carries. But this summer, everything is different…

This summer she’s a counselor at Cumberland Creek summer camp, and she wants to put the past behind her. This summer Matt is back as a counselor too. He’s the first guy she ever kissed, and he’s gone from a geeky songwriter who loved The Hardy Boys to a buff lifeguard who loves to flirt…with her.

Kate used to think the world was black and white, right and wrong. Turns out, life isn’t that easy…

The Hundred Oaks series:

Growing up in Tennessee, Miranda Kenneally dreamed of becoming an Atlanta Brave, a country singer (cliché!), or a UN interpreter. Instead she writes, and works for the State Department in Washington, D.C., where George W. Bush once used her shoulder as an armrest. Miranda loves Twitter, Star Trek and her husband.

    Ahh so many this week! There are only a few that I’m curious about though, namely Also Known As and The Summer Prince. I was looking forwarding to Pulse at one point, but it doesn’t seem to have been getting the best reviews, so I’ll probably skip that one now. Thanks for sharing, Giselle! 🙂

    OMG I am so far behind. I just realized I have like 5 of those that I still need to review. I need to take time away from the internet to get caught up.

  4. Kristin@BloodSweatandBooks

    Lots of books I want to read coming out this week Pulse, The Goddess Inheritance, Prisoner B-3087, Lady Of Ashes,Fragments, The Madness Underneath. Garden Of Stones sounds pretty good as well based on the reviews I’ve seen for it.

    A relatively quiet week. I’m sure I’ll want Things I Can’t Forget eventually, but I still haven’t finished Catching Jordan and haven’t ordered Stealing Parker yet. (Maybe I’ll get the two books in one order… *ponders*) Truthfully I’m kinda relieved. I just did a monstrously huge Chapters spree for my birthday and I really need to READ some books before I buy more. 🙂

    I’m not so sure about Miranda’s books, I’ve heard they’re fantastic, it’s just that.. I’m not a huge fan of Christian books.. -.- I love that cover though!! I’m so looking forward to Never Too Far so I can finally read Fallen Too Far. Also, Pulse has been on my radar for quite some time. I hope you have a lovely weekend, Giselle, and thanks for sharing, girl!

  7. Eileen

    WOW! That’s a lot of books releasing this week! All of Jennifer Echols’ books are super amazing so I’m really intrigued about Starcrossed and Things I Can’t Forget sounds SO adorable!

    Thanks for sharing 🙂

    There are so many great books releasing this week!! I’ve read stunning reviews of Eleanor & Park, as well as Me, Him, Them, and It, so I am totally planning to check those out. I’m also excited to read Dualed, despite all the mixed reviews. It still sounds like something that I’d really love! I also really need to pick up one of Miranda’s books. I never noticed how similar the covers were, though, so it’s great to see that they haven’t been changed or anything [yet].

    Thanks so much for sharing, Giselle! <3

    I wanted to buy Fade to Black, but some of the reviews I have been seeing have me thinking I won’t like it now. Which is a shame because THAT COVER!

    I still might get Dreams and Shadows though. It sounds wonderful!

  12. Janeal Falor

    There’s several here I haven’t heard of yet that look worth peaking into. I’m excited for Me, Him, Them, and It, though I probably won’t be able to read it for a while. I don’t usually read teen pregnancy books, but the reviews on this one have really caught my interest.

  13. Nick

    Oh man! That’s a lot of books this week. Fortunately, I’m only interested in a couple, namely Star Crossed and Eleanor and Park. I’m excited for those two!

  14. Cass (Words on Paper)

    The Storyteller sounds pretty good, actually. Seems that there are more pregnancy stories lately, which is kind of nice. I’ve been looking forward to Pulse for a while. And Eleanor & Park sounds great.

    Holy mother, another HUGE book release week O.O quite a bit of new ones for me too. I really like the cover of Summer Prince ♥ and I can’t wait to read The False Prince so I can start The Runaway King 😀 I was interested in Pulse & Dualed but all the *ahem* less then stellar reviews have made me wary :S
