Summer's back for a second summer vacation in the Florida Keys.

She's just graduated from high school and she's back to chill with Diana, her cousin, and Marquez, her best friend. Unlike last summer, Seth won't be there. Instead, her new fiancé will be on the West Coast for an internship.

When an old fling shows up, Summer must figure out her heart and where her loyalty lies before things spin out of control. Diana is hiding a secret crush on Seth and, if Summer's not careful, Diana could ruin her cousin's relationship. Marquez is dating Summer's brother, but she's also going through a downward spiral.

Can the three girls survive the roller coaster summer without destroying their friendship?

TAN LINES follows up BEACH BLONDES and is perfect for readers craving romance, sun, friendship, and drama.

I really enjoyed this book! If you haven't read the first Summer novel, then I recommend you do before reading this one as a lot of the storyline is carried on from the first book. The characters, - many of who are back in action from the first Summer novel - are so complex and compelling, it's amazing. The storyline is excellent as well, not just a mushy beach read (although those mushy, romantic beach reads are my type of book!) Tan Lines has a real poignant storyline that pulls you in and makes you not want to put the book down.
