Patti's been hoping Tim will notice her, but it's purely accidental when she backs into his car in the school parking lot. Boy, is she embarrassed. But instead of being angry, Tim asks her for a date.
It's the beginning of a wonderful relationship until both of their parents start arguing about the accident. And the argument turns into an all-out war.
Tim and Patti continue to see each other, meeting secretly. But they hate sneaking around. Their parents are acting like babies. Why won't they just listen?
This book didn't interest me, so I read very little of it.
Sweet Dreams #36 Summer Dreams, Barbara Conklin, 1983Katy's summer promises to be the most challenging one of her life. She'll be taking care of Michael, a little blind boy, helping him get over a recent tragedy. It won't be easy. But Steve will be helping her. Katy's been admiring Steve for a long time. Together they'll spend golden days building castles in the sand, teaching Michael to laugh again.
But it's not turning out as Katy had hoped. Michael's almost more than she can handle, and Steve, though friendly, remains distant. As the summer draws to a close, Katy wonders if her dreams will crumble along with their last sand castle.
This book has a good hook with the blind boy and Katy struggling to take care of him. After the first few chapters, this book firmly grabbed my attention.
The summary of this book is misleading. I don't understand why the publisher cannot just tell the truth. This book does have an interesting story, and a truthful summary would suffice.
Steve isn't distant. His relationship with Katy just progresses very slowly and naturally. As for Michael, he's really not more than Katy can handle since she has a little help.
This is a very good book.
