Your destiny should be in your own hands. Follow your heart right to the end, or go back and choose all over again! It’s the last day of school and Frankie Jones is looking down the barrel of a long, hot, boring summer with only her guitar for company until… 1. She gets a surprise chance to go to London. She’s dying to go – except that it will mean seeing her heartbreakingly cute British friend Jack again. Will things take up where they left off? Or can Frankie finally prove she’s over him? OR 2. Her dad invites her on a beach holiday. But when she discovers her dad’s new girlfriend and her daughter Ellie are also coming on their trip, Frankie’s not sure how she feels. Will she get to spend any time with her dad at all? Or will she be expected to hang out with Ellie, her new best frenemy?

Sign in for personalised guidanceThis is a choice-driven summer story about Frankie weighing excitement, romantic feelings and family time. Its central appeal is the contrast between two possible experiences, while the consequences of each choice are not revealed.
Frankie is invited towards two different summer plans and is framed as able to choose or choose again.
Frankie’s dad’s new girlfriend and her daughter are part of the beach holiday, leaving Frankie uncertain about her relationship with her dad during the trip.
The London option would bring Frankie back into contact with Jack, and she wonders whether their connection will resume or whether she can prove she is over him.
Pay attention to how Frankie’s choices are presented: does the story value following her feelings, reconsidering them, or balancing romance with family connection? The portrayal of Ellie and Jack may also shape the reading.
This is a grounded book brief while Suitabook strengthens the analysis: the current material supports only a cautious reading; another book-specific source is still needed.
