Ellie Cruz has a plan for everything-especially summer. After 273 days of uniforms, early alarms, and algebra, she's finally free. Her checklist is simple: beach days, lip gloss reapplication, and staying far away from drama. But when her best friend's older brother, Tyson Schone, shows up looking like a plot twist in sneakers and a backward cap, Ellie's perfect plan starts to unravel.
Between awkward car rides, beach nights that feel a little too electric, and a girl who keeps appearing at the worst possible moments, Ellie's summer goes from chill to complicated real fast. Add in an ongoing feud between Lexi and Tyson, a few too many secrets, and a kiss from last year that still haunts her-and suddenly, nothing is as simple as it seemed.
Sometimes the biggest surprises are the ones that were right in front of you all along. And if Ellie wants to make it through this summer in one piece, she'll have to learn how to read between the tan lines.
