Sunset Half-full
Summer
Vanilla

Cats
Coffee
Alone
Living with mistakes
Being invisible

K: Luke, I don’t think a string of one-word answers was what they were after.
L: Hey, read them all together. Doesn’t it look like a poem?
K: Ummm
L: If you squint.
K: Can’t really see it.
L: *sigh* You know, I’ve been up all night.
K: Really? Why?
L: Someone wrote a book about me. It’s supposed to come out today.
K: This makes you nervous?
L: Anyone ever write a book about you?
K: Well…
L: Yeah.
K: You going to do something with those one-word answers?
L: “I sit outdoors pondering cats in the half-full sunset of summer…”
K: Luke!
L: Brigitta would like it. She appreciates poetry.
K: She appreciates good poetry.
L: Hey, I’m just getting warmed up. I haven’t even gotten to “alone” “living with mistakes” and “being invisible.”
K: What about those things?
L: Weren’t we talking about coffee? I could’ve sworn we were talking about coffee.
K: Why would you rather be invisible?
L: Think I’m going to tell you?
K: It’s an intriguing answer, considering you may be a movie star in hiding.
L: Oh, don’t start on that!
K: Brigitta wonders if you are.
L: She doesn’t, really.
K: Au contraire, mon ami!
L: No she doesn’t. She doesn’t care about stuff like that.
K: More than you think.
L: I think I know her a little better than you do.
K: That’s cheeky.
L: No offense, but you’re just the author. There’s a lot we don’t tell you.
K:
L: You’re speechless!
K: Are you Trent Yves?
L:
K: Now you’re speechless.
L: No. Just tired of that question. Give it a rest.
K: All right…Half empty or half full?
L: “In the summer I am a half-full kinda guy, alone with my mistakes, invisible until sunset when the cats offer me vanilla coffee and promise to interpret my dreams…”
K: ???
L: Told you I was tired.

The Summer of No Regrets by Katherine Grace Bond
(Amazon | Goodreads)

The day Brigitta accidentally flings herself into the lap of a guy she’s never met, her friend Natalie is convinced he’s Trent Yves, egotistical heartthrob-in-hiding. Brigitta hopes he’ll hide far away from her. But Trent wouldn’t be the only missing person. Since her grandparents both died, Brigitta has felt lost—especially with her dad refusing to talk about them. When the boy, who calls himself Luke, is nearly eaten by a cougar, Brigitta finds herself saving his life, being swept into his spectacular embrace and wondering if she wants Natalie’s fantasy to be true. But as she comes to know him, Brigitta realizes she wants more than an idol. And she may not get to choose.
