Emmy Mae is not happy at all when she hears that her cousins Cody, Nick, and Rhino (don't those names sound familiar?) are coming to stay for the summer. Her cousins are weird and act about three years older than they are. This summer will be HORRIBLE.
But her cousin Cody is actually VERY fun! He loves soccer just as much as she does, and he agrees that Rhino and Nick are pure evil. Emmy Mae just might have a new best friend. And after a while, Rhino and Nick turn out to be okay, too.
Her sister Harly is very sick, though, and dies from cancer at the young age of fourteen. Emmy Mae will have to cope with the loss of her favorite sister and her new friends as they head back home. Even the family dog notices the sudden loss of the house's four favorite people.
Will this summer ever get any better, or will Emmy Mae have the worst summer in the history of summers?
There isn't really a certain age for this story. It's just a nice book.

We are Three
Cody, Rhino, and Nick are back in a new, surfing, dancing, laughing, eating, doodling, partying, kissing, swimming, picture-taking, birthday-bashing, souvineer-shopping, face-slapping adventure to the beautiful beaches of the (made-up) town of Costal, Mexico!
Nick's girlfriend Ashley sends him and his brothers to the beautiful Casa de Caliente, which, they find out from their over-attractive "tour guide," aka, Vasila Puerez, means House of Hot! And it IS, with amazing views, awesome room service, and posh bedrooms (which, of course, they fight over.)
But things take a turn for the worse when Cody and Rhino sneak out to go to Vasila's cousin Mia's birthday party, where Rhino meets Trinity, a red-headed DJ from New York. This was supposed to be a secret from Nick, who wasn't invited, even if NOTHING happened!
But Nick is willing to blackmail his brothers when one request doesn't go his way. Cody and Rhino are trapped by their baby brother who, they are discovering, may be more evil, spoiled, and clever then they'd thought.
What will Rhino, being oldest, do to stop his brothers from fighting, his crush and his brother from kissing, his mom from finding out about the party, and them eating the hotel out of house and home? Or will this trip just be one big nightmare?
