Falling for Ryan

Love Stories For Young Adults #30

by Julie Taylor

Kylie Brennan is psyched that her boring sophomore year at Jefferson Memorial is finally over. She can't wait to go on her Adventure Trails trip, where she'll canoe, hike, pitch a tent, and be worlds away from obnoxious Ryan Baron, the smart aleck who lives to torture her.

But when Kylie arrives at the Adventure Trails' meeting point, her worst nightmare comes true--Ryan Baron is on her trip! Kylie would rather sit in chemistry class all summer than spend five weeks in very close quarters with Ryan. As the trip gets going, Kylie's surprised to see that Ryan isn't quite as irritating in these new surroundings. He's even sort of...cute. Could Kylie be falling for her worst enemy?

I normally read this book in one sitting. Cheesy and cliche but I love it :)

Mom's need not worry at all! Amazing for tweens & teens, no sex, no talk of sex. Not even sexual innuendos, (Despite the cover and title) just kissing! First kiss/first love, romantic, creative, clever, funny! I would highly recommend these "love stories" books written by different authors. They're what I started out on, as an adolescent in the 90s, daydreaming about my future first love, 😻 and I sometimes still pull them out and read them as an adult! And, most all of the main characters, a girl looking for love, have a best friend/gal pal like most of us do/did to rely on, and to chat with! My mom loved these for me, as did I!

Falling For Ryan....a Summer spent with the guy you hate.......or do you, really? Find out!

Read this as a teen and loved it. Doesn't quite hold up as an adult but still cute.
