Inhaltsangabe

On a small island it's easy to know everything about your friends . . . except for the truth. The first two books of bestselling authors Katherine Applegate and Michael Grant's beloved series about New England's most unforgettable teens are now available in one volume!

Two years ago the tiny New England community on Chatham Island was rocked by tragedy―three teenagers had a terrible accident that left one dead. Now Lucas Cabral, the person responsible for the events on that fateful night, has returned. But life on the island isn't the same, and everyone Lucas once considered a friend refuses to speak to him. Everyone except for Zoey Passmore.

Zoey knows that Lucas is off-limits . . . but she can't seem to stay away from him. Even though she knows it would be better for everyone if he had never come back. Even though she is dating Jake, the brother of the boy who died. As Lucas and Zoey grow closer, Zoey risks tearing apart her close-knit group of friends if they discover the truth . . . that she's falling for her boyfriend's worst enemy.

Formerly known as Making Out #1: Zoey Fools Around and Making Out #2: Jake Finds Out.

• Forbidden Love: Zoey knows she should hate Lucas Cabral. But the more she’s warned to stay away, the more she’s drawn to the one boy on the island everyone says is off-limits.
• Boyfriend’s Worst Enemy: She’s dating Jake, who is still grieving the brother Lucas is blamed for killing. Falling for Lucas isn’t just a betrayal—it’s an act of war.
• Small Town Romance: On tiny Chatham Island, there are no secrets. When Zoey and Lucas risk being seen together, they’re not just breaking a rule; they’re threatening to shatter their entire community.
• Secrets and Lies: The accident two years ago was more complicated than anyone knows. As Zoey gets closer to Lucas, she begins to wonder what really happened on that fateful night—and who is still lying about it.
