Our Last Summer

Seventeen-year-old Lena Carter has her entire future mapped out-graduate at the top of her class, get into an Ivy League school, and follow in her parents' footsteps to become a doctor. The last thing she wants is to waste her summer at a college-prep program in a sleepy lake town. But when her parents send her away with no choice in the matter, she's resigned to spending the summer studying-until she meets Noah Wilder.

Noah has lived in Lake Haven his entire life, and he's counting down the days until he can leave. With his mother struggling with addiction and his little sister relying on him, Noah has learned to expect disappointment. Love, stability, and a real future have never been options for him. So when he meets Lena-the girl who seems to have it all-he doesn't expect to care. And he definitely doesn't expect her to care about him.

But Lena is drawn to Noah's reckless, adventurous spirit, and Noah finds himself captivated by the girl who sees more in him than he sees in himself. As they spend long summer nights on the lake, sneaking into abandoned places, and crossing things off Noah's "one-day" list, their connection grows into something neither of them expected.

Yet, summer is temporary, and real life is waiting. Lena's future is already set in stone, and Noah's responsibilities won't disappear when she leaves. When secrets about Noah's home life come to light, Lena is faced with a choice-stick to the path she's always followed, or take a leap of faith for the boy who taught her how to live.
