Cherokee Summer
by Susan Antony
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
GENRE: YA Romance
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
BLURB:
When
Ace leaves home to spend the summer in Cherokee, North Carolina the last thing
she expects to find is a boyfriend—until she meets Cherokee Tribe member John
Spears. As Ace and John's friendship blossoms, they find their life experiences
mirror each other and they fall in love. Despite hurdles thrown by well-meaning
family members and jealous frenemies, the star-crossed lovers remain committed
to their mutual belief that the universe has drawn them together. However, when
Ace sends John a strange text and then suddenly disappears, the two must rely
on their trust in each other to save both their lives and their love.

EXCERPT ONE:
I
invite her into the circle of my arms. She leans against me and rests her head
on my shoulder. Above us, the moon is nearly full, casting bluish light across
the river. The sky is a starry mess.
“Look.”
I point to the sky. “There’s Ursa Major.”
“What?”
she asks.
“The
bear constellation.”
“Where
is it? Show me.”
I
raise her hand and trace the starry image like I’m doing a dot-to-dot picture.
“There’s the head.” I swoop her hand left. “And there’s the tail.” I finish by pointing
out the bear’s front and rear legs.
“The
way you do it makes it look like a skinny, headless dog,” she says.
I
laugh. “Where’s your imagination?”
“Let
me try.” She lifts my hand and traces a detailed shape of a bear, describing
the air-drawing from ear to toe. “Is that better?”
“Perfect,”
I say. “Like you.”
She
laces her fingers through mine.
I
rub tiny circles on her palm with my thumb as I speak. “When I was a kid, I
used to fear the bear would swoop down from the sky and eat me alive.”
“That’s
horrible.” She presses her lips together, and her ribs shake in suppressed
mirth.
“I
wouldn’t laugh if I were you,” I say. “Elisi says that bear is pretty bad.”
“Don’t
worry. I’ll protect you from Starbear.” She makes a muscle, flexing and
releasing her cute bicep.
“You
will, huh?” I tickle her side.
She
squeals, wiggles around, and digs her fingers into my ribs. We engage in a full
out tickle-war. In the middle of our battle, the wind shifts and the earth
rotates, and soon we’re on the ground with her straddling me, both of us
panting.
Our
eyes lock, and I brush a strand of hair behind her ear.
She
leans over inch at a time until her nose touches mine. She kisses me, only a
peck, then runs the tip of her tongue around lightly around my lips. Unable to
resist any longer, I pull her to me and crush my mouth into hers.
