A Summer Cruise
Got a summer cruise vacation planned for this summer? Then be sure to bring a copy of Seasick by Kristin Cast and Pintip Dunn with you. This thriller novel, which features ex-best friends and their privileged classmates on board a luxury yacht with a killer, is full of secrets and lies.
A Remote Retreat
Be it the lake or the mountains, if you’re going on a remote vacation and want to feel your heart flutter, check out Wild About You by Kaitlyn Hill. The story is about two opposites: an unapologetically loud “indoorsy” girl and her randomly assigned, capital-O Outdoorsy teammate whose growl could rival a black bear.
