Christy Is a Forever Friend
Summer Promise
Fourteen-year-old Christy Miller has the dream summer ahead of her in sun-kissed California, staying with her aunt and uncle at their beachfront home. Aunt Marti loves to shop, and those surfers are cuteāespecially Todd. Christy promised her parents she wouldnāt do anything sheād regret later, and some of her beach friends are a little wild. But Todd and his āGod-Loverā friends are giving Christy a new image of all things eternal. Can this summer live up to its promise?
A Whisper and a Wish
Christyās family has moved to California just in time for her sophomore year of high school. But theyāre not in Newport Beach, where she spent the summer. Instead theyāre an hour and a half away and Christy has to start all over making friends. Despite an embarrassing escapade at a slumber party, things are going pretty well...until some midnight fun leads to a trip to the police station. Does God really hear every whisper? Does He know our every wish? Then why is it so hard to know who your friends really are?
Yours Forever
Christy is back at Aunt Marti and Uncle Bobās house on the beach for the entire week between Christmas and New Yearās...and Todd is in town, too! The cute surfer completely captured Christyās heart last summer, and sheās eager to spend every possible minute with him. But soon Christy and her aunt are barely speaking, and it seems like all her friends are mad at her, tooāincluding Todd! Is he hers or isnāt he? And why would God let things get so tangled?
Story Behind the Book
āThe Christy Miller series was actually born when a group of thirteen-year-olds challenged me to write a novel. Iād been questioning the content of their favorite books when they said, āWhy donāt you write a book for us?ā I told them no, I only wrote picture books. But they persisted: āHow hard could it be? Weāll even tell you what to write! We want a love story with teenagers at the beach.ā And there you go. Summer Promise first released seventeen years ago and is now translated into five languages. I continue to hear from readers all over the world, many girls saying that they gave their life to Christ after reading Summer Promise. I love that!ā
