Something More (Girlfriend Fiction)
Just remember, Isla, when you're searching for happiness, it
knows all the best hiding places. (Gran McGonnigle)
Isla McBay is the only person in her family who isn't delighted
that they've left grey, rainy Scotland for warm, sunny Australia.
For starters, she can't swim - not great for pool parties. She
misses her gran and her friends, her dad's insisting on giving her
the most irritating driving lessons on earth, and she's constantly
fighting with her younger sister, Terry, who's more adventurous
than Isla and always does everything first. At least there's
photography, but even her class with dreamy Sam Doyle and annoying
yet intriguing Jack Ferris can't cure Isla's homesickness...
Then Terry comes to Isla with a serious problem, jolting her into
the here-and-now and forcing Isla to make a choice: will she stop
living a miserable half-life in her new country and be the better
sister Terry needs her to be - or will she close her eyes to what's
really important?
'Quirky and interesting...with a hint of romance and an unexpected
twist; a definite page-turner.' - Ailie, 16
