Carly is definately going to have a non-stop summer this year. With her job as a camp counselour, her sister home from college her freshmen year - pregnant with a baby, and her gorgous best friend Heather who keeps snagging all of her guys, Carly's really in for it! Then Carlys spots Luke, a dreamy muscle man that would turn any girl's head. But what about Heather? The minute she finds out Carly is interested in someone beside the guy that she just took she'll be hopping right over and throw a smile right in Luke's face and Carly's dreams of romance with muscle man are history. So here's Carly's plan: If she could just find a guy that she could pretend to be in love with then Heather could be obsessing about him while Carly secretly dates Luke. And who else could play the part except forJack Ryder who is irresistibley cute and funny and always has girls kissing the ground he walks on - a perfect match for Heather. Her plan is working out perfectly except for Carly. Turns out Luke is a self-centered, boring, jerk and Carly can't stop thinking about Jack. She can't stand the sight of Heather and him together and pretty soon she finds herself down right in love with him. And she has a feeling Jack just might have a thing for her too. Will this cute couple get together? This is just another example of another Elizabeth Chandler novels that will keep your heart racing. I would be throughally surprised if you didn't like this book 100%!

This is a must have for anyone's reading library. It is realistic in a sense that "your friends aren't always who you think they are." And Carly and her so-called 'best friend' Heather, are the prime example. I loved the idea that Carly thought Heather would be great with Jack, but then realized she was totally wrong. Then, when you think it's too late, it's happily ever after.

One thing that struck me about "Hot Summer Nights" is that it's not the typical light and frothy young adult romance novel. Aside from the romance, it deals with teenage pregnancy and holding on to worn-out relationships and wraps everything into a witty and bittersweet package. The heroine, Carly McFarlane, is definitely a person of substance with her own set of insecurities and a lot of teenagers can relate to her. This is one of the few stories that really stuck with me after all these years, and I highly recommend it to anyone who likes young adult novels.

this book is INCREDIBLE !! the story is about a girl whose best friend is the perfect blonde petite girl who always has to take guys away from her!! whoever she dates, heather (her best friend) dates just after her, i mean, the girl doesn't even waits for her to brake up! so that's why carly makes a perfect plan to keep heather away from luke, the guy she's after, she just has to find heather the perfect guy for her... so she starts this huge caimpaign to pair up heather with someone, and after a few tries she find the perfect guy for her, jack, whose a guy who works with her as a counselor at summer school for kids. but when they start to hit it off, carly realices that she is developing a major crush on jack, and then her sister whose pregnant and at home tells her to do exactly what heather would...
well i hope i didn't give away to much about the story! i recomend this book to anyone who into a excelent love story, i mean, i have like 8 books of this serie and this one is by far, one of the best i've read!
u just can't miss it!!

I have read almost all the books in this series, and I promise anyone, that this is by far the best one. It's so real life, and it really gives you some ideas.

I thought I was too old to be reading these "teeny-bopper" romances, but I wanted some light reading. And I found this book to be exactly what I want in a guy and love. Really, it's worth the read.

Carly McFarlane has a so called 'best friend', Heather who snatches every single one of Carly boyfriends. So she finally decided to find the perfect guy for Heather to stop this craziness. Jack obviously was attracted to Carly from the first time they met being it such a bizarre situation. Though being absolutely 'blur' from the beginning, she thinks that he is the best match for her friend. This book is pretty interesting. With a few other characters in it to spice it all up. Watch out for Carly's sister, Joelle with her witty as well as thoughtful comebacks at some parts of the book. Overall it is quite a good and enjoyable book. Worth the time spent on reading it.

I loved this book. I fell in love with the characters. Carly is so funny. What she does is so down to earth and real life- (she reminds me of one of my friends). And I find myself smiling with Jack a lot of the time. In addition to being a really good BOOK, it is also a great romance!
Check it out- fuh real.

I've read a lot of the books in this series and this one, along with At First Sight (also written by Elizabeth Chandler), were my favorite. I deffinently recomend it.

I thought that this was going to be another-Boy meets girl-something prevents them from getting together-but then they do-story..IT WAS! But, the difference was the quality of writing, depth of characters, and warm feeling that the book gave me...I LOVED IT. I've read it a million times!
