Moving to her mother's sleepy Florida beach town was already the worst thing seventeen-year-old Cleo could imagine.
Cleo expects to hate everything about her new life-the heat, the tourists, the constant chaos, and especially living near her painfully loud cousin Kade.
But between beach nights, new friendships, sarcastic banter, and Malikai-the calm, patient boy who somehow understands her better than anyone else-Cleo slowly starts letting people in.
What begins as tension and teasing turns into something deeper: first love, found family, and the terrifying realization that Palmwood doesn't feel temporary anymore. It feels like home.
