Summer in the Invisible City

A sparkling coming-of-age story set in New York City where a seventeen-year-old girl learns that she can’t always hide behind her camera.

“A lovely summer romance with plenty to say about art, friendship, and love.”—Booklist

A girl. A boy. A summer neither of them saw coming.

Sadie is going to befriend the cool girls at her school. She’s going to impress her artist dad with her photography skills. And she’s going to get over Noah, the older guy who was her very first mistake. She did not plan for this summer to include Sam.

Funny, free-thinking, and mysterious, Sam makes Sadie see New York City in a sparkling new light. But he insists they are “just friends”—even though friends don’t make Sadie’s heart race like Sam does. And when Sadie’s perfect summer spirals into heartbreak, Sam’s friendship may not be enough. Sadie is comfortable seeing the world through her camera. Now she must force herself to see the bad—and the good—in other people in order to set this summer right.

First love, first hurt, and the true meaning of family swirl together in this heartfelt young adult romance.
