Official synopsis Publisher
When the fearless Zoe breaks her arm in a fall, Anna must brave summer camp — and her debut as a Counselor In Training — without her best friend. Going it alone is not something Anna is ready for. Cruising along in Zoe’s shadow had been comfortable, but now Anna is out in the full glare of the sun. There’s no hiding from harsh truths and plenty of people to point them out. Take Karim, the swim instructor, who has suddenly turned gorgeous but obviously hates Anna.
And Anna’s new friend and cabinmate Isabel — rainbow hair, sharp tongue and no boundaries. Sooner or later Anna will have to face another hard truth: things have changed between her and Zoe and there’s no going back into the shadows. But where can Anna hide when just being herself isn’t nearly enough?
