Unread copy with a touch of edge and cover wear. ‘For 15-year-old Kennedy Baines, life is a series of pains: her boyfriend Jordan is nice but lacks passion; she thinks her mother might have had an affair; she feels responsible for her little sister’s broken ankle; and now she’s being creeped out by a cyber-stalker who’s lurking on her chat line. … But things are looking up. Her mom’s old friend from England has arrived for a visit, accompanied by Colin – her gorgeous 18-year-old son. This summer just might turn out better than Kennedy had expected. In this hilarious, honest and suspenseful novel, Kennedy discovers that life isn’t so bad after all, and that people – even good-looking guys with charming accents – aren’t always as they appear.’ (from rear wrap)
