In "The Hot & Cold Summer" by Gail Owens, two very different siblings, Max and Daisy, find themselves at odds during a particularly tumultuous summer. Max, a free-spirited dreamer, craves adventure and spontaneity, while Daisy, organized and practical, prefers routine and stability. Their contrasting personalities are put to the test as they navigate the ups and downs of family life, friendships, and their own budding identities. As the days grow hot, tensions rise, leading them to unexpected revelations about each other. Ultimately, they learn the importance of balance, embracing both warmth and clarity in their relationship. [Generated by language model - please report any problems].
