Romeo O'Brian has spent most of his teenage life studying, sailing, and silently loving Briar Crawford--his sister's best friend, his next-door neighbor, the girl who lives like she has nothing to lose. When their families send them to the beach house unsupervised for the summer, Romeo knows it's his last chance to tell her how he feels before he sets off on a year-long solo sailing trip around the world. But Briar is drowning in her own way, caught between grief, guilt, and the ghosts of her late brother, Will. She's not interested in falling in love. And if she was, it would never be with Romeo, the cinnamon-sweet boy who she grew up protecting. Now surrounded by friends, lies, and overwhelming feelings, Romeo has one summer to prove he's more than the sweet, sensitive, guy she's always known. Everyone's making him look cooler, funnier, hotter, and more grown up than she ever saw before. Now Briar has to decide if the only heart she was never meant to break is the one she can't live without. For her, it's supposed to be casual. Just a distraction. But Romeo's not a little boy anymore. And no matter how hard she tries, Briar can't stop falling for him

Because of Haven Beach
"The moon's really beautiful, if you think about it," I blurted. "Yeah?" he asked, mild amusement and curiosity mingling in his voice. "Yeah," I confirmed. "It's just- there's something about the moon that's ethereal. I don't really know how to describe it, but it's a constant in life. You can't always see it, but you have to trust that it's out there somewhere. And when you can see it, it's all bright and shiny and overcomes the darkness." I paused, searching for the right words. "I don't know. I guess it's a reminder that there are good things out there, even if you can't see them... And it's cool to think that someone hundreds of miles away is staring at the exact same moon as you. It makes me feel not so alone in life." Turning my head, I saw him staring at me intently with a thoughtful look on his face. "Too deep for a Friday night?" I laughed nervously, feeling my face grow hot. And this was precisely why I didn't go to parties. He shook his head and seemed to snap out of his daze. "It was deep in a good way." *** SHE was quiet & left out.
