Synopsis

The Islanders have known one another forever—but everyone has secrets. The third and fourth books in Katherine Applegate and Michael Grant's electrifying series reach a whole new audience in this gorgeous omnibus edition.

Nina has never been very interested in having a boyfriend. Especially since the only guy she's ever really liked happens to be dating her sister, Claire. But when Ben and Claire break up, Nina begins to wonder if it's time she take a risk and put her heart on the line. The only problem is the other thing . . . the secret that Nina has never told anyone. The secret that has haunted her for years.

Now Nina must decide if she can tell her friends the truth. And, if she does, whether it's possible Ben will ever look at her the same way again.

Formerly known as Making Out #3: Nina Won't Tell and Making Out #4: Ben's in Love.


  • Sisters in Love with the Same Boy: Nina has always liked Ben from afar, but he was her sister Claire’s boyfriend. Now that they’ve broken up, is her loyalty to her sister stronger than her hope for a first romance?
  • A Haunting Secret: A traumatic event from Nina’s past has kept her from getting close to anyone. Revealing the truth could set her free—or destroy her relationships with everyone she cares about.
  • Classic 90s Teen Drama: Dive into the relationships, rivalries, and romances of Chatham Island in this omnibus of the beloved Making Out series, packed with high school angst and heartfelt moments.
  • Island Romance: From ferry rides to the mainland to windswept beaches, the small-town island setting shapes every secret and fledgling romance for this tight-knit group of friends.
