finally, one summer, it seems like he might have feelings for her too.

I Know What You Did Last Summer by Lois Duncan
Some secrets just won't stay buried.
They didn't mean it. They didn't
mean to hit the boy. There was a party, and it was an accident...that
wasn't who they were. They were pre-law, a football player, bound for
New York. No one could know, so Barry, Julie, Helen, and Ray swore one
another to secrecy. But now, a year later, someone knows. Julie receives
a haunting, anonymous threat: "I know what you did last summer." The
dark lie is unearthed, and before the four friends know it they need to
outsmart a killer...or they will be the next to die.
Leave the lights on when reading
this classic thriller! This new edition features modernized text and a
new introduction by Lois Duncan, the master of teen horror.
I have no idea whether there's any difference between this and the original... So I don't know about but i'm gonna see if i can find the original...
Seventeenth Summer by Maureen Daly
Angie didn’t think she would fall
in love, especially not with someone in her small town. But when she
meets Jack during the summer before she goes off to college, all bets
are off. From the moment they meet, Angie and Jack can’t get enough of
each other. Even though Angie’s family thinks she should be with someone
more sophisticated and with a brighter future, Angie knows Jack is the
right one for her. But although Angie and Jack are in for a summer full
of romance, first heartbreak is not far behind...
First published in 1942 and every bit as relevant today, Seventeenth Summer chronicles a pivotal experience with extraordinary freshness and sensitivity.
And before you say "oh that's too old and outdated! I'm not reading that!" (I'm not saying all of you think like that) just read the excerpt on the Barnes & Noble website, give it a shot!
So it's considerably shorter and way over do but here's another book list...
