Perfect for fans of 99 Days and Anna and the French Kiss, this unforgettable, sun-drenched summer romance from one of YA' s bestselling and most beloved authors, Sarah Mlynowski, is an irresistible dive into the joys of seizing the day and embracing the unexpected. Sam' s summer isn' t off to a great start. Her boyfriend, Eli, ditched her for a European backpacking trip, and now she' s a counselor at Camp Blue Springs: the summer camp her eleven-year-old self swore never to return to. Sam expects the next seven weeks to be a total disaster. That is, until she meets Gavin, the camp' s sailing instructor, who turns her expectations upside down. Gavin may have gotten the job just for his abs. Or that smile. Or the way he fills Sam' s free time with thrilling encounters--swimming under a cascade of stars, whispering secrets over s' mores, embarking on one (very precarious) canoe ride after dark. It' s absurd. After all, Sam loves Eli. But one totally absurd, completely off-the-wall summer may be just what Sam needs. And maybe, just maybe, it will teach her something about what she really wants. --Booklist

" --Booklist Praise for I See London, I See France: "This endlessly fun and hugely entertaining romp through Europe had me laughing out loud and reaching for my passport. "---- Jennifer E. Smith, author of The Statistical Probability of Love at First Sight and Windfall "Fun, sexy, sex-positive, and inclusive. . . this deceptively thought-provoking summer read also offers a thoughtful feminist subtext. Sizzling and smart. "--Kirkus Reviews "Must read YA. . . If you' re in the mood for fun, sass and adorable romance, pick up this fun-filled book. " --USA Today "Witty with a serious edge, this book encapsulates the wonder, joy, and anxieties that accompany any journey. " --Publishers Weekly "A funny, sexy, irresistible summer romance that will leave you giggling and in love with the world. "--Lauren Myracle, New York Times bestselling author of Let It Snow and This Boy "A poolside read for the ages. . . .

" --Shelf Awareness "A ridiculously fun trip through Europe with a protagonist you won' t soon forget. " --Popsugar
