Almost a year has passed since the Penderwicks visited Point Mouette, and each sister has a daunting task ahead of them. Rosalind is entering grade 9, the final stage of junior high, not to mention that she's studying to earn her learner's licence. Skye is starting grade 8, and with it comes a mountain of emotions and responsibilities. Jane's prepping herself for her first year of junior high, and Batty is just beginning grade school. However, there is a silver lining. Iantha has urgently been called to Boston, and she brings Skye, Jane and Batty with her to visit Jeffery. Rosalind stays home along with Mr. Penderwick and Ben, in order to study for her test and hopefully see Tommy. What will this summer bring for the Penderwick sisters? --- Characters are rightfully Jeanne Birdsall's. Most Penderwick fanfics focus on Skye, and her struggles with life, but this one focuses a bit more on Jane.

You read about them as children in the books. Ever wonder what happened to them as teenagers? Rosalind Penderwick. Responsible, mature, logical, friendly, and drop-dead gorgeous. After the devastation of losing her mother while young, she had to grow up fast in order to take care of her rowdy sisters. Tommy Geiger. Cocky, immature, athletic, charismatic, and a grin that would put Ansel Elgort to shame. That pretty girl across the street had always tied his tongue into Boy Scout knots, but when he finally got the courage to ask her out a few years ago, his life had never been the same. Rosalind only wants to find and follow the purpose for her life. Safely moving forward through life is all she's thought about, but what's holding her back? Tommy only wants to seize every day of his adolescence. I mean, as star football player and professional partier, isn't life is too short to worry? Temptations and opposing goals clash in an epic tale of two childhood buddies, across-the-street neighbors, polar opposite in personalities and in house locations. And the only way to see what lies behind the door is to knock. *TOMMY AND ROSALIND ARE FROM ONE OF MY ALL TIME FAVORITE BOOKS, THE PENDERWICKS*

2 years pass since Point Mouette... SKYE PENDERWICK You could say it's been a long time since I've seen Jeffrey. I still fully blame him for missing last year because of his stupid tour. Whatever. Between high school, calculus, and soccer championships, a trip to Cape Cod seems like a nice getaway. I can have a good vacation without stress. Or so I thought. That was until I saw Jeffrey again. JEFFREY TIFTON Don't get me wrong, traveling around the world, playing music with Alec was pretty incredible. But that was last summer. This summer, we get to see the Penderwicks. I hadn't really experienced these emotions before. I didn't even know they were real, with my whole parent scandal thing going on. It's just... It's just I never thought I would see Skye being so... pretty

JEFFREY TIFTON College at 16 isn't AS scary as you think it is. Nope, it's scarier. My life now revolves around two things: music and Skye. To be honest, I can't say I'm complaining. I can't describe how amazing it is seeing her everyday. If college is overwhelming, I can fully swear that our relationship is basically a tsunami of wonderful that's washed me away. But until I can pull myself into reality, I know I'm in for a roller coaster of a ride. SKYE PENDERWICK Okay, you've got me: I've fallen for him. I must say, though, how grateful I am that my little brainiac of a dork is in a college 15 minutes away from my home in Cameron, Massachusetts. But when disasters strike, one after the next, my life begins to flip upside down. Between my new relationship and coping with each incident, sometimes I can't help but feel so... Stupid. *WARNING: A LITTLE MORE MATURE CONTENT THAN THE LAST BOOK (TOUCH THE SKYE) ALSO LOTS OF FLUFF RATED PG-13 TO BE SAFE BUT IT'S REALLY PG-11* *WARNING 2: THIS DOESN'T REALLY HAVE A STORYLINE, IT'S MORE FOCUSED AROUND THE DAILY LIVES OF SKEFFREY IN THEIR NEW SITUATION WITH CUTE MOMENTS AND CHALLENGES THEY FACE.*
