Overview

Carly Neal stares at the big red "F" on her college Human Anatomy exam in Professor Harold's course. There's another test tomorrow, and if she doesn't do something drastic, she'll fail again. Brock Larson needs something from the professor too--a recommendation to an internship at the Mayo Clinic. He'd rather ask just about anyone else, but the professor's name on his submission will seal his future. The professor doesn't care about helping either of them until Brock proposes a wager. If he can teach Carly enough human anatomy in the next two days to ace the exams, he's obviously the best man for the job and deserves the recommendation. Although hesitant to be used as a bargaining chip, Carly reasons that studying with this man might be her only chance to pass the class. But Brock might have in mind a very different curriculum for her summer sessions! To My Readers: Carly is the kind of college student I was--hard working and kind of smart but nowhere near brilliant. Science classes were not my long suit. Well, sometimes a girl has to find new and creative ways to learn difficult concepts. When I sat down to write Summer Sessions, I imagined a more fun way to learn human anatomy... the sort of tutoring that included more than the textbook. In this book, Carly and Brock come up with a method that probably won't make it into any college in this country but would certainly prove interesting and probably blow away the bell curve of grade point averages. Enjoy!

Editorial Reviews

Rose Nymph
In Boning Up, Summer Alan had me panting with the novel way in which Brock helps Carly learn human anatomy in such a short space of time. Images of a couple of hot, sweaty study sessions with lots of hands-on advice, combined with the tempestuous love-hate relationship that quickly develops between Carly and Brock had me on the edge of my seat.

    A fast and fun read!

    Review by Marissa

    Boning Up by Summer Alan was a wonderful novella. It made me wonder where those tutors where when I was in college. It was super steamy and the interactions between Brock, and Carly were enchanting. I couldn't put it down.

    Carly is a spirited student who has worked way too hard to let a her snotty, know it all professor get the best of her. Brock comes along and places a bet that he can get Carly to ace her final two exams if the professor will give him a letter of recommendation. Carly originally doesn't want any part of this game that she thinks Brock is trying to play.

    The books come out, the studying begins and before you know it the sparks are flying and love is in the air.

    The relationship between Carly and Brock happens to quickly, and in such a short amount of time, that you feel drawn into it right away. Boning up will have you panting until the very last page. Boning up is a fun and fast read that you won't be able to put down.
