From Little Stack
16-year-old Ellie hates beach volleyball summer camp. She was supposed to attend with her boyfriend, but then he dumped her right before it began. Now, she's struggling to cope until she's paired up with Sierra, a volleyball prodigy with an enigmatic image who is proving to be the ideal distraction.
Ellie's determined to get her boyfriend back, but as the Summer passes, the more time she spends with Sierra, the more she realizes that what she's been looking for all this time is right in front of her.
For 16-year-old Ellie, beach volleyball camp is a disaster until she's paired with Sierra, an athletic prodigy who teaches her that volleyball...and love are about taking the right shot in this sporty sapphic romance.
Ellie dates the Right Guy, says all the Right Things, and acts the Right Way to avoid being ridiculed for her autism. When that Right Guy unceremoniously dumps her right before they're supposed to go to beach volleyball camp together, Ellie's perfectly curated world comes crashing down and she's labeled the boring, weird girl.
Desperate to regain her good reputation (and yeah, sure, the boy...), Ellie goes to Camp SMASH, which is nothing like she expected. There, she's paired with Sierra, a mysterious, standoffish volleyball legacy who makes Ellie's quest to get her boyfriend back even more complicated...
Dive into this sporty summer romance full of the classics: a ragtag group of friends, a tense game of capture the flag, and a swoon-worthy sapphic love story.
