Evelyn Williams and her two best friends are about to experience a summer one can only dream about. They just don't know it yet. Evie is simply misunderstood. Being sixteen isn't easy. She is invisible to her parents, troubled by the small town she lives in, and guilt ridden by the loss of her brother Clyde. When summer begins, she feels like things will never start looking up. That's when a mysterious friend of Clyde's comes to the rescue and helps Evie and her two best friends run away to Waverly Beach for the summer. The beach town is exactly the place she's been hoping for with surfer boys, contests, and endless summer nights. Waverly is about to offer her much more than an unforgettable summer.
