On The Island

THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

As romantic as One Day, you won't be able to put down this love story with a twist . . .

When thirty-year-old English teacher Anna Emerson is offered a summer job tutoring T.J. Callahan at his family's holiday home in the Maldives, she accepts without hesitation - a tropical island beats the library any day.

T.J. has no desire to leave town, not that anyone asked him. He's almost seventeen and if having had cancer wasn't bad enough, he now has to spend his first summer in remission with his family instead of his friends.

But while en-route to the Maldives, Anna and T.J. tragedy strikes when the pilot of their seaplane suffers a fatal heart attack and crash-lands in the Indian Ocean.

Marooned on an uninhabited island, Anna and T.J. have to work together just to survive.

But as the days turn to weeks, months and years, Anna begins to wonder if the biggest challenge of all might be living with a boy who is gradually becoming a man...
