Local Girls : An Island Summer Novel (9781416564171) - Plot & Excerpts
It was absolutely gorgeous out, the sky a clear blue, and there was enough of a breeze to keep us cool but not so much that we couldn’t sit up on the deck and soak up the sun on the way to Woods Hole. “So your parents didn’t have a problem with you coming with me for the night?” Henry asked, moving over to give me some room on the bench. “I didn’t exactly tell them it was just you and me,” I admitted. “So what did you tell them?” “I just asked if I could go to Boston to spend the night at Mona’s house. Technically that was true. Why, what’d you tell Izzy?” Henry gave me a sheepish grin. “That I was heading into the city to see Tom for the night.” Even if neither of us said it out loud, I knew we were both thinking the same thing.
