She's a tomboy. He's the boy next door. With three older brothers, Charlotte Reynolds, aka Charlie, has always been more comfortable calling the shots on a basketball court than flirting with the opposite sex. So when her police officer dad demands she get a summer job to pay for the latest in a long line of speeding tickets, she's more than a little surprised to find herself working at a chichi boutique and going out with a boy who has never seen her tear it up in a pickup game. Charlie seeks late-night refuge in her backyard, talking out her problems with her neighbor and honorary fourth brother, Braden, sitting back-to-back against the fence that separates them. Braden may know her better than anyone. But there's a secret Charlie's keeping that even he hasn't figured out-she's fallen for him. Hard. She knows what it means to go for the win, but if spilling her secret means losing him for good, the stakes just got too high. On the Fence is a sweet and satisfying read about finding yourself and finding love where you least expect it.
Love it!! The story line is so cute, but weird because of all places, why fence? There's a "cameo" or appearance of Caymen from the book, "The Distance Between Us" where she told the main character of this book that her shop is going on fairs and that "Xander" may have left the door open. I appreciate stories with the so-called "John Green effect" where characters from different books meet in one story. I don't really know what happened to Charlie's mom, did she take her own life because she's sick? I don't know. So far, this book is sooo good!
