Book Description

What do you get when you mix a middle-aged, hard-nosed cop with a temperamental young doctor? A solved crime and two lives turned upside down. Brilliant and multi-talented, police captain Rick Mora is also a boozing, brawling, womanizer. Although he is very successful in cleaning up his border city, he sees himself as just one small step above the criminals he pursues. July, the little redheaded orphan from the backwoods of New Mexico, fought her way through a forest of minimizing, abusive men to become an accomplished physician, best in her class. She dislikes, maybe even fears, powerful men like Captain Mora. The two are thrown together when July is seriously injured in the bombing of the clinic where she volunteers. Something’s got to give. Maybe neither July nor Rick is quite the person they think they are.

Tom Brenner’s lovely, lyrical ode to summers spent outdoors will strike a chord with anyone who’s ever counted down the days until school gets out, and Jaime Kim’s jubilant, nostalgia-soaked illustrations leave little doubt that summer is indeed a time unlike any other.
