"Yeah, I was born in August so naturally my parents thought it was a perfect name," I rolled my eyes for emphasis. "It gets annoying after a while though." As soon as August finishes her sophomore year in high school, her father sells their house and moves the family into their rental home on Rock Rose Beach. Faced with this new change, August longs for friendship, especially when she meets her next-door neighbor Jacob. "Well, I think it's a pretty name," he smiled again, which made his whole face light up. He stared at me for a minute more before asking, "I feel like I recognize you from somewhere, have we met before?" As her 17th birthday draws nearer, August begins to recall a past summer spent at the beach with Jacob when she was little. But was their closeness a thing of the past, or will she be able to rekindle what they might have had before?
