Charlotte Grayson is her father’s pride and joy, the youngest daughter of the Grayson clan-- a rich coquettish teenager always on the prowl for fun. But Charlotte’s no dummy, as she defies expectations with her perfect academic record at school. Charlotte easily fits right in with the “mean girls” of the Hamptons, but there’s a curiosity streak that draws her to the troubled boys from the “wrong side of the tracks.” Throughout the summer, as she dives head first into forbidden romance, Charlotte constantly struggles to get away from the condemnatory eye of a mother who’s honest affection has always eluded her.
