Sixteen-year-old Talia Zeplen has always blended quietly into the background of her small Victorian town - splitting her time between school, shifts at her parents' restaurant, and losing herself in books. She has no idea what she wants from her future, and that uncertainty sits like a weight she can't quite shake.
When she boards a plane to spend the summer with her glamorous aunt in Sydney, she expects long days of reading and people-watching in cafés - not to find Hayden Grey, her well-known but barely spoken-to classmate, sliding into the seat beside her. Hayden knows exactly what he wants from life, and he talks about it like it's as certain as the sunrise. Talia can't help but wonder what that must feel like.
Over one summer of chance meetings, city discoveries, and conversations that linger, Talia begins to realise that maybe figuring out your future isn't about having all the answers - it's about learning to ask the right questions.
A warm, introspective coming-of-age story about self-discovery, unexpected connections, and the small moments that can change everything.
