What I Thought Was True

Series: None
Genre: Young Adult, Contemporary, Romance
Publisher: Dial Books for Young Readers
Release Date: April 15, 2014
Summary:
From the author of My Life Next Door comes a swoony summertime romance full of expectation and regret, humor and hard questions.
Gwen Castle’s Biggest Mistake Ever, Cassidy Somers, is slumming it as a yard boy on her Nantucket-esque island this summer. He’s a rich kid from across the bridge in Stony Bay, and she hails from a family of fishermen and house cleaners who keep the island’s summer people happy. Gwen worries a life of cleaning houses will be her fate too, but just when it looks like she’ll never escape her past – or the island – Gwen’s dad gives her some shocking advice. Sparks fly and secret histories unspool as Gwen spends a gorgeous, restless summer struggling to resolve what she thought was true—about the place she lives, the people she loves, and even herself – with what really is.
A magnetic, push-me-pull-me romance with depth, this is for fans of Sarah Dessen, Jenny Han, and Deb Caletti.

Love Huntly Fitzpatrick. I’m dying for this novel. I was so sad when I didn’t get an ARC but I can’t wait to own it and devour it. I love My Life Next Door and I think this is going to be awesome as well.
