After Amanda Howell saw Danielle’s lovely review of her debut novel The Summer of Skinny Dipping she emailed Danielle offering us the chance to give away two copies of her book. There will be two winners picked: one entrant from the UK and one entrant from the US. All you have to do to win a copy of the book is send us an email to [email protected] with the subject line of ‘The Summer of Skinny Dipping Giveaway (UK/US)’ and please include your postal address. You MUST include your country, UK or US, otherwise you will not be entered into the draw. The competition ends in July so good luck!

Sometimes I still wake up shivering in the early hours of the morning, drowning in dreams of being out there in the ocean that summer, of looking up at the moon and feeling as invisible and free as a fish. But I’m jumping ahead, and to tell the story right I have to go back to the very beginning. To a place called Indigo Beach. To a boy with pale skin that glowed against the dark waves. To the start of something neither of us could have predicted, and which would mark us forever, making everything that came after and before seem like it belonged to another life.

My name is Mia Gordon: I was sixteen years old, and I remember everything.
