Publisher Description
The eagerly anticipated follow-up to My Life Next Door is a magnetic, push-me-pull-me summer romance for fans of Sarah Dessen and Jenny Han.
Gwen Castle's Biggest Mistake Ever, Cassidy Somers, is slumming it as a yard boy on her idyllic Nantucket-esque island this summer. He's a rich kid from across the bridge in Stony Bay, and she hails from a family of fishermen and housecleaners who keep the island's summer people happy. Gwen worries a life of cleaning houses will be her fate too, but just when it looks like she'll never escape her past--or the island--Gwen's dad gives her some shocking advice. Sparks fly and secret histories unspool as Gwen spends a gorgeous, restless summer struggling to resolve what she thought was true--about the place she lives, the people she loves, and even herself--with what really is.
Huntley Fitzpatrick delivers another enticing summer listen full of expectation and regret, humor and hard questions, and a romance that will make every listener swoon.

“Fitzpatrick’s thoughtful and genuine love story shows the clash between classes in a New England beach community that’s home to two types of people: those who live in mansions, and those who serve them…Fitzpatrick once again evokes the dizzying heights of adolescent passion while remaining down-to-earth.”

Quotes
-
“This novel tells a beautiful story of first love and although some of the background information is slow to be revealed, Gwen’s character has the kind of depth and voice that will enchant teens.”
— School Library Journal -

— Kirkus Reviews -
“Girls looking for a Sarah Dessen-esque romance that is a cut above the usual…will be delighted with Fitzpatrick’s fast-paced What I Thought Was True.”
