The Summer Rules (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798391488934)

Belle Acton's heartfelt novel reminds readers happiness can be found in surprising places.

Izzy takes things seriously, while Em takes them light. Their differences never mattered much; they're best friends and always have been.

It's senior year at Watford (an elite boarding school on Sydney's North Shore) and for the first time, the girls' classes will be combined with boys from the brother school across the road.

Enter, the gorgeous and notorious, Dominic Hunter.

Em's crushing hard on Dom. She has a plan to win him over and she isn't afraid to use it. To everyone's surprise, they're hooking up before even he knows what's hit him!

Izzy has bigger problems to worry about than playing second fiddle to the hottest boy in school. Her mum's sick and it's got everyone concerned.

When Em goes to Japan over the summer, Izzy is enlisted to hang out with Dom and keep him out of trouble. She does her best but honestly, the boy is slippery!

As, everything spirals out of control, Izzy finds herself wondering if rules are made to be broken.

A coming-of-age story about friendship, family, and first love. Perfect for fans of Colleen Hoover, Ginger Scott and Anna Todd.

"Absorbing story, exploiting the different levels of morality of the characters. It all worked for me. Full marks!" - Romance Writers of Australia FIVE STARS

"A slam dunk of a teen romance novel...This is what growing up feels like - painful, fun and the steaminess!!!! I laughed, I cried. I loved it!" - FIVE STARS
