Wilson Dekker thought that leaving his hometown was the hardest thing he's ever done. He quickly realizes that learning to stay might be harder than running away. It turns out the summer has a way of stirring up the memories of everything left behind: the lake where they grew up, the years of sketchbook pages, and the heart that still hasn't figured out how to stop belonging to Brando Ellis, even after months of silence. Meanwhile, Brando's just trying to keep his head above water between soccer, family pressure, and the weight of being who everyone wants him to be it's getting harder to pretend he's not miserable. Then he gets a postcard. Caught between who they were and who they've become, Wilson and Brando spend the summer circling old memories, old mistakes, and a love neither of them is ready to name.
