Description
Joely, says Frankie. Before it starts ...this holiday ...it's about us. Right?
Frankie and Joely are best friends. They love each other like no one else can. It's summer and, together, the girls are escaping the city and their mums for a week of freedom in the country.
But when Joely introduces Frankie to her country cousins, Thommo and Mack, it soon becomes clear that something other than the heat is getting under their skin. As the temperature rises, local boy Rory stirs things up even more and secrets start to blister.
Will they still be Frankie and Joely by the end of their holiday?
