Five summers by the water, gathered in one set

This boxed set brings together five young adult romances connected by summer settings and the uncertainty of what happens when the season ends. The stories move among a lakeside vacation, an island town, the Maine coast, and beach communities, pairing local teens with visitors or classmates. Seventeenth Summer adds a historical point of contrast: Maureen Daly’s novel was first published in the 1940s. Together, the books offer several takes on summer relationships, from new attractions to the possibility that changing circumstances will separate a couple come fall.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Teens and young adults interested in contemporary romance.
  • Readers who enjoy summer settings such as lakes, beaches, boardwalks, and coastal towns.
  • Those looking for a collection that includes both newer romances and a young adult novel first published in the 1940s.

Book overview

Get carried away on a summer breeze with these five young adult romances set on balmy beaches, evenings on the boardwalk, and ice cream dates--now available together in one paperback boxed set!

There's nothing more romantic than summer by the shore.

In Michelle Dalton's swoon-worthy books, young couples fall for each other in the summer...only to wonder if they're destined to separate come fall. In Fifteenth Summer, a teen unexpectedly finds love during a summer vacation by a lake. A townie gets involved with a tourist--in a beachside island town in Sixteenth Summer and along the Maine coastline in Swept Away. A shy surfer gets drawn out of her (sea)shell by a cute beach town tourist in Pulled Under.

And two high school classmates spend a steamy summer together while the prospect of moving to separate states in the fall looms closer in Maureen Daly's Seventeenth Summer--first published in the 1940s and considered to be the first young adult novel!
