Description
Two girls, one kiss, one summer of discovery
All’s fair in love and summertime prank wars
The last person Riya Johnson expected to run into at her new summer camp is Courtney Chastain—her childhood best friend and the girl who broke her heart after a secret, mind-blowing, life-altering kiss. She definitely didn’t expect to be sharing a bunk bed with her for four long weeks.
Courtney has what every girl wants—she’s beautiful, rich, and the object of every boy’s desire at Camp Pine Ridge. Too bad none of them make her feel an iota of what Riya’s kiss did all those years ago. But Courtney needs to uphold appearances at all costs—even if it means instigating an all-out prank war with Riya as her main target.
Neither girl can stop thinking about the other…but that doesn’t mean they can give up past hurts and take a chance on a future together.
Disclaimer: This Entangled Teen Crush book contains drinking, sexual situations, and a fairy-tale romance sure to make your heart melt.

This was a super fun and cute story about childhood best friends who got seperated due to an incident at the age of thirteen. Unexpectedly, they met again at a summer camp a few years later...
The fact that one of the protagonist Riya is an openly bisexual half Indian girl made me really happy. She also has a great support system that is her family.
Courtney, on the other hand, is still very unsure about her sexuality. Although she grew up in a rich family, she doesn't feel the freedom she is supposed to have. Her family gives her exact directions in which she'll have to go in the future.
What I loved:
- Courtney & Colt's relationship and how understanding Colt is
- how Dee defended Riya from the very beginning
- the PRANKS
- Courtney's passion for ballet & Riya's passion for volleyball
- consent (!) during a problematic situation
A cute (but a bit angsty) romance. I liked that the main characters had a pre-existing friendship before the events of the book so the romance was more believable. It was a quick read, but a very engaging and interesting one! Highly recommend for those looking for a swoony f/f YA romance.
4.5 Stars!
This book was an unexpected hit for me. This was my first F/F Romance, and I loved every word of it. I had pretty low expectations going in, but quickly realized how wrong I was. I know, I KNOW, never judge a book by its cover. But really, this book kept me up reading. I kept pushing myself to go to bed, but instead I kept saying one more chapter. That is my my ultimate definition of a good book.
Riya is a gorgeous, exotic volleyball player on scholarship. Courtney is a beautiful, rich dancer whose parents have high expectations of how they want her life to go. They were childhood best friends and shared a secret first kiss. Reuniting at summer camp is something neither expected.
I loved Riya. I loved Dee. I loved Colt. Really, this book was filled with great characters that all deserved their own books. I think the romance was well done, not explicit, and perfect for the age range. The prank war was so much fun and I loved the development of the characters as the book progressed. I will definitely be keeping my eyes out for more Sarah Nicolas.
