One last summer. Two families. Three brothers. And a secret that's about to break everything.
16-year-old Sunny Sinclair has spent every July of her life at Seabrook Bay, but this year, the salt air feels like a lie. Her parents are in the middle of a suffocating, secret divorce, and the drive to the coast is a battleground of silence. Her only escape is her vintage camera and the three Miller brothers-the only people who make her feel like she's still standing on solid ground.
But the "bro code" is about to be shattered.
Sunny finds herself caught in a magnetic, messy pull between the 18-year-old twins, who also happen to be her older brother Benny's best friends. Cove Miller, the bold and charismatic athlete, makes it crystal clear that he wants her, flirting with a dangerous confidence that ignores every rule. Meanwhile, Ryder Miller, the oldest and most protective, tries to bury his feelings under a mask of stoicism, watching over Sunny in the shallows because he knows she can't swim. But beneath his quiet exterior, a storm is building that neither of them can outrun.
As her family falls apart and the tension between the twins reaches a breaking point, Sunny's only true confidant is 16-year-old Tyde. As her gay best friend and soulmate, Tyde is the only one who sees the tears behind her camera lens and knows the truth Sunny is desperate to hide.
In a summer defined by inevitable goodbyes at Seabrook Bay, Sunny Sinclair must decide: is she brave enough to dive into the deep end, or will she let the tide pull her under before the sun sets on their childhood for good?
