CRUEL SUMMER in one line: A cute, summer read.

Well... Colby is a pretty typical high school girl. She's completely obsessed with getting into the in-crowd, which works out pretty well for her now since Amanda, the most popular (hateful?) girl in school is finally paying attention to her. Not to mention that Levi, the sexy high school stud she's been eying, seems to want to take things to the next level. Now, it's summertime and Colby is ready to bask in the glow of her new-found popularity. The world is beautiful and life is good... until...
Her parents announce that they are getting a divorce. And, while they work things out, they want to move Colby in with her aunt for the summer (for her own good, of course). Her aunt, dubbed "Crazy Aunt Tally" by Colby's parents, lives on a remote island of Greece where she survives without cell-phones, internet, or television. After one time visiting the slow-paced relaxation of the culture, Tally decided to plant her roots for good in Greece.
But... this doesn't mean Colby is ready to spend a summer apart from her accustomed modern amenities! After all, high school popularity is short-lived, and Amanda and Levi have short attention spans, so Colby can't afford not to stay connected (both virtually and "IRL") this summer!
Except, once she gets to Greece.... she meets this boy called Yannis....
