Last Exit to Montauk E-BOOK

Love the eighties? Love romantic adventures? How often have you looked back on your high school experiences and just thought . . . WOW. Last Exit to Montauk will take you there . . . and more.

When he approaches her at the market, he has no idea the next three weeks of his life would change him forever. It's the late 1980s, summertime, on the North Shore of Long Island. The air stirs with possibilities as it often does during this time of year. 

And so begins the romance between one Hispanic seventeen-year-old male, on the verge of manhood and ready to conquer the world, and one beautiful and intelligent young woman named B. It is much more than romance, though. B will forever become a part of this young man's soul. He will never forget her.

This is a coming-of-age story, a love story, replete with milestones, tangled emotions, and adventures that are the embodiments of first love. Not just for the young, but for the young at heart.

"Vega's account of first love is so authentic it's hard to believe he wasn't seventeen when he wrote it. Last Exit to Montauk will have you reminiscing about summers as a teenager and all the foibles and joys of those times. With references to the 1980s that ground you and an ending that doesn't pull any emotional punches, this books keeps you turning the pages." – Elena Stowell, author of Flowing with the Go and co-founder of the Carly Stowell Foundation (www.carlystowellfoundation.countmein.com)

"I loved the book and cried at the end. It was a wonderful heartwarming tale of an adolescent boy and his heart. I loved the characters and could relate, as I am a fellow Long Islander. The references to the 1980s are great." – Nancy O'Hara, early reviewer

"It brought back some great memories of high school. I felt very 'seventeen,' which was a fun way to feel during the week of my fiftieth birthday. I can't even guess how many times I literally laughed out loud. I was expecting a great book and was definitely not disappointed." – Karen Nelson, early reviewer

"I loved the '80s memories of Friendly's fribbles, Spencer's Gifts, the music, movies, etc. I have lots of family in Long Island and grew up going there all my life, and I feel like he nailed the Long Island '80s vibe of malls and beach days. The book has great nostalgia for me, especially given the world we live in today with constant social media and everyone on their phones. It was a great escape!" – Danielle Boniauto, early reviewer
