About the Book (from Amazon)
It was supposed to be an ideal summer, the last carefree one for four teenagers who were all going separate ways after high school graduation. But it’s ruined by a single act of vandalism – the word CHEATER keyed into the side of a truck.
All Holly wanted that summer was for her two best friends and her boyfriend, Wade, to spend time together and enjoy their last summer together. Too bad they had a senseless rude awakening when one of them was attacked, and Wade’s truck was vandalized. A truck he’d worked so hard to earn the money to buy.
Holly knows that the only way to salvage what’s remaining of their last summer is to find the person who committed the vandalism. But that’s easier said than done when a crime is committed in a big city and even the security camera footage is of no help.
Join Holly, Levi, Lydia, and Wade through this last summer as they try to keep the future at bay. And find out who the vandalizer is, a brutal reminder of the real world they’ll soon be entering.

Nothing noteworthy stands out for the summer Holidays before graduation. Just spending time with friends and at the beach. Through social media I am still in touch with many of the people I went to High School with.
Oh my, that was way back in 1966! I most likely was working as a waitress in one of our local buffet restaurants full time since school was out for the summer. Yes, I've kept in contact with a few of my high school friends even though I moved out of state a few years after graduation. Thanks for the chance to win!
A few days after high school graduation, I was already in college taking a full load of classes in summer school. I am not in touch with people from high school.

I definitely don't keep in touch with friends from high school. I went to a very small school, and didn't meet lifelong friends until later in life.
The summer after graduation I went to Fla. with my 2 girlfriends, I still seen one of them occasionally.
The summer before I entered college I worked at a large city newspaper in the circulation department..It was a truly wonderful learning experience...the last week ofAugyst Ileft to spend some time with my parents at the shore .. I have not kept in touch with any of my high school friends as I never was very close to any group.
I went to work. I don't keep in touch with my friends.
Unfortunately the summer after graduation I was pregnant. I tried to have the best summer ever!
I had to work both summers. We had a big family so we worked to help pay for our school clothes and bills. I do see some of my old friends from school (4th grade and up.) :)

I was working the summer before and after high school graduation. I graduated when I was 17 so I still had a curfew the summer after and that stinks! lol
I spent the last summer before high school graduation with friends in L.A. I am not in touch with anyone from high school.

Right after our high school graduation my best friend and I took a road trip to San Franciso, had a great time. We had stayed in touch until a few years ago when she disagreed with my political stance and blocked me out of her life :(

The summer after my graduation, I left the farm to live with my brother and his family in the Kansas City area. I worked at a fast food restaurant and spent time with my nephew. I stay in touch with several of my high school friends via Facebook.
I worked as a day camp counselor to have pocket money for my first year of college!
I spent the last summer before high school graduation with my aunt in her village.
I still keep in touch with my high school friends via FB but we rarely meet in person.
The summer after graduation was when I met my husband, we met on a blind date. It will be 34 years in August :)
Way back when we got out of school we got a job............. BUT over my younger years I have 5 very special friends. Over the years friends have moved but always tried to get back home once a year. Now there are only 2 of us left we still keep in close touch.
