Melt With You by Jennifer Dugan — Fallon and Chloe used to be best friends. But last summer, the girls hooked up right before Chloe left for college, and after a series of misunderstandings, they aren’t even speaking to one another. Now, a year later, Chloe’s back home from school, and Fallon is doing everything in her power to avoid her. Which is especially difficult because their moms own a business together — a gourmet ice cream truck where both girls work. “Appropriately sweet and messy, yet wholly satisfying, this is destined to become one of the year’s best summer beach reads” (Booklist).
