In this reprint of Catherine Clark's FROZEN RODEO, Fleming is having the worst summer. She's stuck working at a coffee shop in a gas station to pay her parents back for crashing their station wagon. She's taking a French class where the professor is always absent. Her best friend is gone for the summer and the boy she likes is always making out with another girl.

That doesn't even begin to describe her troubles at home - always having to babysit and help around the house without having time to herself. Fleming can't wait to leave town next year and head to college.

Then she befriends another girl, forms a friendship with the boys she works with, and makes out with a new guy. Could the summer be looking up for her?

Catherine Clark writes a summer novel where everything's going wrong, but then things begin to look up and Fleming discovers her life isn't so terrible after all.
