Just a Summer Girl — Helen Cavanagh

Summer at the beach. Every year Nina looks forward to it. Endless days in the sun, beach parties, dances, picnics. And lots of time for her painting and drawing. Nina hopes this summer will be special. And it is. She falls in love. She's never felt as attracted to a boy as she is to Ben. But Ben doesn't understand Nina. He wants to be a fisherman and live quietly on the island, while she is a city girl who wants to be an artist. Nina's not sure she can change her life…even for Ben.
