I was reading the one who turned Pride and Prejudice into a LGBT book. But, I wasn't actually reading that author. I don't know how long it lasted, but there was a period of time there where I thought I'd been reading the second book, by me to be read, by an author who had written a book involving two people who were kept apart for, like, 20 years because of a simple stupid miscommunication. I was going to make a comment that doesn't fit now. I knew I'd read a previous book by Christie, but I just realized it wasn't the one I was recalling. I need to stop reading books involving 20 year-olds. Two people with long term crushes who are horribly afraid to be damaged. "I like Emily and Sam, and I don't always say that or think that about the characters in books, but they are killing me here. If playing game of 'who calls next', you'd think Sam would be the one with the obligation to say what the fuck is going on with running." She's older by 4 years and the one who fled. "Just so I'll remember things later when everything is said and done - Sam kissed Emily on check in bar, then, outside, Emily pushed into and kissed Sam. She's the one to make the next move? WTF?" Didn't she know I was waiting for her to make the next move?' - um, you kissed her and then ran. Also, WTF? 'Why hadn't Emily called? She was the experienced lesbian here. "Unfortunate that I didn't know this was a lesbian-straight relationship book. I had certain problems.īut first, let me look at what I wrote as I went along. I like the main characters of Emily and Sam.
In this rich story of long days and hot nights, newcomer Kate Christie follows the collision course of two women during the summer that changes their lives. Their youthful camaraderie had been simple, but under the warm Seattle sun, simple is the last word that describes their feelings. Years ago, they played soccer on the same high school team, only Sam was the star and Emily the new kid. When their paths cross, Emily is surprised Sam remembers her. She’s planning on making every day of summer count. Come fall, she’s an assistant soccer coach with responsibilities. It’s the last summer Emily MacKenzie will get to spend hanging out with friends, soaking up the sun and checking out the women on Seattle’s sporting fields. She’s not looking for the future-today is all she needs. The death of her older brother, and her parents’ denial, have left her shaken and grateful her simple needs are being met. Sam Delaney has all she asks from a job and a place of her own arranged exactly the way she likes it. On the longest day of the year, anything can happen…
