(Kirkus) Our cousins have done this program, Sophie whispers. Best kept secret. Zero supervision. And just like that, Ever Wong's summer takes an unexpected turn . Gone is Chien Tan , the strict educational program in Taiwan that Ever was expecting. In its place, she finds Loveboat: a summer-long free-for-all where hookups abound, adults turn a blind eye, snake-blood sake flows abundantly, and the nightlife runs nonstop. But not every student is quite what they seem: Ever is working toward becoming a doctor but nurses a secret passion for dance. Rick Woo is the Yale-bound child prodigy bane of Ever's existence whose perfection hides a secret. Boy-crazy, fashion-obsessed Sophie Ha turns out to have more to her than meets the eye. And under sexy Xavier Yeh 's shell is buried a shameful truth he'll never admit. When these students' lives collide, it's guaranteed to be a summer Ever will never forget. A unique story from an exciting and authentic new voice. --Sabaa Tahir, #1 New York Times bestselling author of An Ember in the Ashes Equal parts surprising, original, and intelligent.
