I liked this young adult novel. I loved that it took place in Half Moon Bay , California. I could relate to the location because I been there before with my family. Its a beautiful place.

I loved that its showed girl friends helping each other out. I loved that there was some romance, but its mainly about the family. This was also about best friends in high school and helping one another out.



This was a quick read for me. This number 3 in the series. I haven't read any of the other series til now. I have never read these authors before. I did like how the girls banded together to help someone out. I liked that they made a new friend along the way, who wanted to stand with them.





This book comes out Oct 15,2009 in paperback and $9.99. I give book 3 out 5 stars.
