Garland's love life took
a rocky ride when his roommate started dating the girl he liked. It was
inevitable, really. Somehow he always makes friends with "that
guy"--the one who can get any girl he wants. It sucks, always feeling
like the third wheel. So, when he's offered a position as a summer camp
counselor, he jumps at the opportunity. It's the perfect chance to
escape...in a place where he's not tied to best-friendship with a chick
magnet.
However, from the moment he arrives, Garland realizes that the grass won't be any greener. He meets Chloe, a beautiful, energetic co-worker and they hit it off right away. Naturally, her ex--who's desperate to win her back--happens to be "that guy". Except this time it's different because there's nothing likable about Chloe's ex. And since there's no rule saying Garland has to be best buds with the resident lady bait, he decides it's time to challenge the status quo. For once, he's going to get the girl.
NOTE: This story can be read as a standalone, but it's better if the series is read in order.

My Review: 4 StarsYears ago, before my first summer camp experience, I watched The Parent Trap and thought for sure that's how it would be. Although this story doesn't give many details from the campers perspective, but it was full of swoony encounters with the counselors. And it, too, wasn't much like the movie, hah.Garland is a great guy--but kind of blind to what's in front of him--which leads to all sorts of misinterpretations and laughs, while drawing in a little angst. Chloe came across as an insincere flirt at first, but she quickly grew on me. It was fun to get to know her, Garland, and the other cast of characters, in this short, sweet, and fun summer romance. I would have loved to see things developed over the course of the entire summer because I simply didn't want it to end.Daniels does a great job of incorporating this new adult romance in with humor, adventure, dancing, and love.
Content: mild romance; mild language
