Robyn Oliver | 2 comments A YA book I read in junior high years ago but I can only remember small bits from-
I believe the main characters name was Johnathan? and I think he comes from money?
He’s on a cruise ship or some kind of ship? and accidentally gets left behind (or something like this) at a port and he either meets a girl there or she is also from the cruise ship?

I know it’s so vague (maybe this book was a fever dream)
the details have disappeared over the years :(

I just learned today that this page on goodreads exists!

Thank you so much for any help or ideas!!l

Sue Elleker | 1054 comments It doesn't match by much, but I thought of The Last Ditch by K. M. Peyton. Jonathan Meredith is sailing in the Greek islands with his wealthy family. Also on board is Iris, a girl from his school, who has neglectful parents and a crush on Jonathan. She persuades him to make love to her, and claims she's on the pill; but lies because she wants his baby.
