(3) YA When her spacey mother leaves the country on a spiritual retreat, Maritza--a practical, affable seventeen-year-old--finds herself spending the summer on a Florida island with her former foster mother. Maritza feels torn between two different lifestyles, two mothers, and two boys. Compelling friendships, complex family struggles, a thoughtful narrator, and a well-drawn setting will appeal to fans of Sarah Dessen.
