Book: Cross My Heart and Hope To SpyAuthor: Ally Carter
Audience: Teen
In a Nutshell: girl spies meet boy spies; complications ensue
Cammie Morgan ended her winter vacation with a debriefing trip to Washington, D.C.; her covert relationship with a civilian in the fall caused a lot of complications. Now she promises her headmistress mother (and the federal government) that she will not pursue that relationship any more, and she will be a nice honest Gallagher Girl. Well, as honest as an international spy-in-training can be.
But even without David, boys make the rest of the year very interesting when a group of guys from the previously-unknown-to-them boys' spy school, the Blackthorne Academy, come for an exchange program. The Blackthorne boys become not only competition, but a reason the girls need to get up much earlier in the morning- no one bothered with hair and makeup when it was just girls. And for some reason, a boy named Zach is showing particular interest in Cammie. But not all is as it seems...
This is the second book in what's shaping up to be an ongoing series. Good stuff, clever and funny; chick lit with a James Bond edge.
