Seventeen-year-old Waverly Lyons is from Vermont; she doesn’t do sun. But after her divorced parents can’t agree on who gets to have her for the summer, Waverly gets shipped off to Holden, Florida to spend a couple months with her aunt, Rachel. Her hopes for the perfect summer seem crushed. Then she meets Blake Hamilton, Rachel’s seventeen-year-old neighbor. He’s athletic, outgoing, arrogant, tan, and pretty much Waverly’s exact opposite. She's eager to avoid him at all costs, hoping to fit in with the other kids in Holden without drawing too much attention to herself. But when Blake discovers that Waverly has been hiding the rather embarrassing secret that she can’t swim, he does the unthinkable: he offers to teach her.

The first thing that pulled me to this story was the cover, then it was the protagonists name. Waverly, it was such an unusual name I decided to check the story out cause of that. And I ended up loving it. I love the authors style, it's the type style that I get hooked on to. It's a great story, and I believe that like me, you will be gripping the edge of your seat waiting for the next upload. Oh, and it's a Watty Awards 2012 participant, so please check it out and vote.
