Love and Other Four-Letter Words

Sammie Davis is sixteen and her life is anything but perfect. Her parents have separated, and she's had to leave her cosy life in suburbia for a tiny apartment in New York. She begins a hot and humid summer struggling with feelings of resentment, anger... and lust for the Johnny Depp look-alike in her apartment block. As the vacation rolls on, she finds new depths to the word "love", and comes to understand that with it come other four-letter words, like "hate", "loss" and "gain". But most important of all, "grow".
