The Story:
Belly has only ever been in love with two boys, both with the last name Fisher. And after being with Jeremiah for the last two years, she's almost positive he is her soul mate. Almost. Conrad has not gotten over the mistake he made when he let Belly go even as Jeremiah has always known that Belly is the girl for him. So when Belly and Jeremiah decide to make things forever, Conrad realizes that it's now or never--tell Belly he loves her, or lose her for good.
Belly will have to confront her feelings for Jeremiah and Conrad and face a truth she has possibly always known: she will have to break one of their hearts.

Rating: FOUR Gold Stars!!!!
My Review: One word: NOSTALGIC
Isabel "Belly" Conklin always knew she'd have the last name Fisher. The question was: Who was going to be Mr. Fisher? The decision was between the Fisher boys; the only two guys she's ever been in love with, ever. So was it going to be distant, older brother Conrad who break her heart or younger, sweet, dependable Jeremiah who was there to help her put up the pieces?
It's been two years since Conrad told Belly to be with Jeremiah and since she's heard from Conbrad. But the time has brought her closer than ever to Jeremiah and she's almost certain he's "The One." But what is Fate without obstacles? As We'll Always Have Summer brings us to the conclusion of the Summer trilogy ... prepare yourself for some twists!
Here are a couple of my favorite quotes from We'll Always Have Summer:
Belly: "He was the first boy I ever kissed. He was my best friend. More and more, I understood. This was the way it was supposed to be. He was the one. My one." [Page 12]
Anika: "Great, now she's comparing losing your virginity to getting a cavity filled," Anika said, getting up. [Page 222]

Yes, it sucked that I had to hate Jeremiah in this book ... I was destroyed by how he turned out.
