A swoony contemporary YA romance by fan-favorite author Kasie West about a girl who finds that a summer spent at a family resort isn't as bad as she imagined...and that falling in love is filled with heartache, laughter, and surprises!

I listened to this book on Libby. I enjoyed reading this. This was a cute, lighthearted, fun, quick read. I liked that there’s music in here, it’s set at a family resort and the main character Avery falls in love with a cute, forbidden staff member named Brooks. I could relate to Avery. I saw myself in her because she loves music, is a people pleaser, avoids conflict and doesn’t stand up for herself. Other reviews I’ve read about this book compare it to the movie Dirty Dancing and I think that’s accurate. This book is a YA version of Dirty Dancing except it has singing instead of dancing and I like music. Even though I enjoyed reading this and I liked the plot, I like Dirty Dancing better. Maybe I would have enjoyed this more if I didn’t already see Dirty Dancing.
