Hi. I posted this in Books but reposting here for traffic.
I am trying to find a book I read in high school but have forgotten most of the details. Was hoping the hive mind of Mumsnet could help me track it down.
What I can remember:
- I read it in about 1996
- It was a teenage romance set in the US
- Plot was from teenage girl's point of view. Parents divorced, dad brings new girlfriend home who has son same-ish age as the main character. Dad wants kids to get along. Daughter hates the idea of step brother. The kids end up going on some kind of trip alone together. I think it was on the river and may have been an accident rather than intentional trip. Bit fuzzy on those details. Anyway they fall in love, have sex and want to get married. Come home, tell parents who are horrified because they are actually half-siblings. Boy's mother was OW. I forget exactly how it ends but that's most of it
- I think the title has Moon in it
- The boy's name is probably Stephen
Any ideas welcome!
