There’s always some- thing about this first morning session, the first gathering of camp, that’s hugely exciting. Maybe it’s because this was when Dun- can and I first noticed each other four years ago, when we had that I Need to Know You moment during warm-ups that I’ll never forget: bopping around with our cabins, our eyes meet- ing, and that total recognition between us of You look like a fun person.

Terra lives and works in the same Atlanta neighborhood where her novels After the Kiss, Being Friends with Boys, and Pure are set. But when the competitive streak follows Brynn out of the pool in a wickedly seductive cat-and-mouse game between herself, her wild best friend, and a hot new college swimmer, Brynn's single-mindedness gets her in over her head, with much more than a trophy to lose.Ĭontributor Bio(s): McVoy, Terra Elan: - Terra Elan McVoy has held a variety of jobs centered around reading and writing, from managing an independent children's bookstore, to teaching writing classes, and even answering fan mail for Captain Underpants. And nothing will get in her way of claiming victory. In the turquoise water, swimming is an escape and her ticket to somewhere-anywhere-else. Not the strained relationship with her absent mother and clueless stepdad. Not the gnawing grief over her fallen hero father. Not her mediocre grades and lack of real friends at school. Nothing else matters to Brynn as she trains her body and mind to win. Ultracompetitive Brynn from The Summer of Firsts and Lasts craves swimming victory-and gets in over her head-in this irresistible novel from Terra Elan McVoy.
