<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"Every day, Sam endures the same subway ride on her way to school, but when she meets a boy named Reid, suddenly her daily commute isn't so ordinary. Reid has the ability to teleport - or, drift, as he calls it - and for the first time, Sam has the opportunity to travel without a passport or plane ticket as long as she's with Reid. But as their two worlds come together, Sam discovers her family had been keeping secrets from her, and meeting Reid was just the beginning of unraveling the truth. When drifters begin to disappear, and Sam learns that her family is among the missing, she has no choice but to face the threat, as well. As Reid and Sam start their search for the missing drifters, help comes from the most unexpected of places. After a significant breakthrough, Reid is taken, and Sam finds herself alone in a world she knows nearly nothing about. With the enemy closing in, she soon realizes she's the one person who can save them all"--Inside front cover.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>"A poignant and heartfelt journey." --Wendy Higgins, <i>New York Times</i> bestselling author of the Sweet Evil series, on <i>Cold Summer</i></b><br>Every day, Sam endures the same subway ride on her way to school, but when she meets a boy named Reid, suddenly her daily commute isn't so ordinary.

A story of a girl who has lost her place, a boy lost in time, and the universal pull to find home." --Kristen Simmons, author of <i>Article 5</i> and <i>Metaltown</i> <p/> "A heart-wrenching ride through past and present, <i>Cold Summer</i> beautifully explores the bonds of family--the ones we're born into, and the ones we choose." --Sarah Marsh, author of <i>Fear the Drowning Deep</i> <p/> "A poignant and heartfelt journey." --Wendy Higgins, <i>New York Times</i> bestselling author of the Sweet Evil series <p/> "An addictive, emotional, deeply original, and beautifully-written time-travel tale that simultaneously offers up an engrossing plot and complex, real relationships. Just incredible! Read it." --Martina Boone, award-winning author of <i>Compulsion</i> and the Heirs of Watson Island trilogy <p/> "There's no time like the present in this time-travel romance." --<i>Kirkus Reviews</i> <p/> "<i>Cold Summer</i> is a romance at its heart--a true coming of age. The time travel element is a unique obstacle the lovers must overcome. . . . A good summer pick for fans of romance." --<i>Historical Novel Society</i> <p/><b>Praise for <i>Ride On</i></b> <p/> "A dusty, gritty, hair-raising adventure across a post-apocalyptic wasteland. It's impossible not to root for Cole's unlikely heroes." --Erin Bowman, author of <i>Vengeance Road</i> and <i>Retribution Rails</i> <p/>"A starkly violent Western with surprising turns of tenderness." --<i>Kirkus Reviews</i> <p/>"Nonstop action quickly turns the book into a page-turner and the well-drawn, complex characters are easy to like. The emotional maturity of the main characters adds depth to what could otherwise be a typical action-story plot and the romance, while understated, rings true. A richly drawn world provides a dim, gloomy context for a bright, intense story. VERDICT: Recommended as a first purchase." --<i>School Library Journal</i><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Gwen Cole</b> is an award-winning author of <i>Cold Summer</i> and <i>Ride On</i>.
