14 yr old Ally just wants a great summer before moving up to high school.  She is looking forward to hanging out with her mates and her crush, Matt.  Jake is the 17 yr old boy next door, up coming rock star and gorgeous with it.  Their eyes meet....etc, etc.  The story is realistic, heart warming and heart breaking.  Just a 3 yr age gap but at that age, it means they are worlds apart.  Jakes mom is in charge of his life, in pretty much every way, and he rebels against her, leaving her desperately unhappy and wondering where she has gone wrong.  Ally's parents are trying to shield her from life, and from making the same mistake her elder sister did, but it comes at a price.I really enjoyed this book, and hope there is a second one to continue where this finished.  The only things that bugged me were the silly spelling mistakes - waived instead of waved, you're instead or your, this happened a few times, and occasionally the book jumped from one scene to the next without warning, but I guess that it more down to the editing than the author. Will look for more books by this author for sure.
