"Superflirt" Dee's summer is supposed to be about harmless flirting at her family's campground. But when Dee's family is sued by the mother of ex-boyfriend Blaine's current girlfriend, things change. Suddenly Dee is scheming and joining forces with surprising people. This book's cover and title will mislead readers expecting purely lighthearted romance--provocative themes of deceit and manipulation are front-and-center.
