It's the first summer the Barton family opens their summer house to friends, and everything feels new in the best way. Freya and her dad, Mike arrive while her mom, Sarah stays in London for work. Freya steps into a whirlwind of Barton‑family warmth and group chaos, but it's Malachi who makes her pause. They've known each other for years, but something about this summer feels different. Between pool nights, sunlit mornings, and the soft shift from friendship into something deeper, this becomes the summer that starts it all.
