Kate and her mother spend the summer visiting friends on Cape Cod, far from their Utah home. Kate's resentment over her upended plans dwindles when she develops feelings for Adam, a friend of her hosts' daughter. This girl-meets-boy story is familiar but appealing; still, it's unlikely that a teen would be so oblivious to the disintegration of her parents' tumultuous marriage.
