A Time to Love

Last Summer, First Love #1

by Jennifer Baker

An incurable disease . . .

Seventeen-year-old Holly Paige always dreamed of a bright future beyond her small Vermont town. College, a career, romance—she wanted it all. But Holly’s dreams were shattered when she was diagnosed with lupus, an illness with no cure. Now Holly lives day to day, and doesn’t even dare to dream of tomorrow.

A chance at love . . .

Then Holly meets Chris Franklin, the Yale-bound son of the local resort owner. The attraction between them is immediate, but Holly refuses to fall in love—refuses to hope for happiness. The more she flees Chris, though, the more he pursues her. Will Holly allow fear to rule her heart, or will she risk everything for the promise of love?

[Sarah · Rating 3 out of 5]

Loved this book in 1994! Doesn’t quite hold up today…but still pretty decent.

[Kellie · Rating 4 out of 5]

If you can find this book, and you enjoy Lurlene McDaniel, you'll like this book.

I never read the sequel though, could never find it...
