Lia Abbott has always dreamed big. Ever since she can remember, her goal has been to move out of the small town she grew up in and live in the big city. After working her butt off in school she has her chance and has job lined up right after graduation for the fall after summer is over. But returning home one last time may have been a bad idea when her childhood crush comes back into her life.

Nate Chapman has always known he would stay in Applewood to run his family's farm. Right after high school he has taken to working full time with his father in order to take over with his own family, never feeling the need to explore anything different. But when his best friend's younger sister comes back from the city for one last summer at home, he can't help but notice the woman she's become and the previously dormant attraction coming back to life.

All it took was a group vacation for the two of them to begin feeling butterflies for each other again. Discovering the mutual feelings, they begin to see each other, but this union makes their own insecurities come to the surface like they never have before. 

There is a month before Lia is due in New York. Will they hang on to their blossoming love or leave the summer romance behind?

72 parts Complete Mature

Delaney James was wearing Chanel the night her husband told her he didn't love her anymore. In an instant, her picture-perfect Manhattan life-complete with a brownstone on the Upper East Side, a blossoming career as a fashion journalist, and a devastatingly handsome, high-powered husband-shattered like glass under a stiletto heel. Heartbroken and blindsided, she does the only thing that makes sense: packs her bags and heads south to the small North Carolina town she swore she'd never return to. It's just temporary, she tells herself-a quiet place to lick her wounds and plan her next move. But South Grove hasn't forgotten her. The porch swings, the sleepy afternoons, the scent of honeysuckle on the breeze-it all comes rushing back. She reconnects with old friends, finds solace in morning coffee runs and barefoot walks along the beach where she once dreamed of escaping. And then there's Greyson McKinnie. The boy who broke her heart is now a man who carries his own scars. Their reunion is anything but smooth. Tense, electric, and full of history, their connection flares to life the moment they cross paths again. And this time, walking away might not be so easy. Now, torn between the career she built and the love she thought she'd lost, Delaney must choose: is the life she always wanted worth the price of the one her heart is just beginning to remember?
