All Aubrey wanted was one last perfect summer-but with the Sinclairs, perfection always comes at a cost.

Aubrey Scott was never a Sinclair, but every summer on Beechwood Island made her feel like she was. The lemon trees, the barefoot dinners, the scent of salt on Johnny Sinclair's hoodie - it was more than tradition. It was home.
But this summer wasn't like the others.
Cracks formed. Truths unraveled. And something in the air-like smoke-warned that nothing gold can stay.
Because some summers leave marks you don't see until it's far too late.
