When eighteen-year-old Ambre arrives at her aunt's mountain home for a summer vacation, she carries more than just her suitcase.
Shielded behind a carefully constructed wall of fierce independence, she's weighed down by unspoken burdens and a secret she's determined to keep hidden. What begins as a simple week-long retreat soon transforms into an unexpected journey, drawing her into her aunt Claire's warm embraces and her cousin Chloe's colorful world of endless enthusiasm.
In a home where mistakes are met with understanding instead of judgment, and where hugs and smiles flow freely, Ambre begins to question everything she thought she knew about herself.
Yet letting go of her defenses isn't easy. After years spent proving she doesn't need anyone's help, accepting it feels like an impossible risk. As the summer unfolds, Ambre faces a choice: keep carrying her burdens alone, or take a leap of faith and let herself fall into the loving arms that have always been ready to catch her.
